    Without more details about what you've done, it's impossible to answer your very general statement "it doesn't work."


    Where is the log file? What do your config files look like?


    I don't use images based on Open, so I can only guess that these images might use different scripts to start the ncam binary, or that the configs are located in a non-standard directory.

  • Satelliweb live feeds & keys [auto-biss]

    That's cool. I've tested only 4:2:2 and biss feeds on 19.2°E and 13°E. The interesting ones like La Liga and Bundesliga feeds I haven't tested due to current dish situation. I don't want to hijack your thread. Check your PM to see what workded for me.

    There’s no reason to quote the post above.


    I'm not sure if I understand you last sentence. You want one user (or reader) to handle "everything except" the SoftCSA channels? With OSCsm/NCam you can natively use negative service filter.

  • Ncam Emu by RAED

    1. Create a file called ncam.services in your NCam config directory (typically /etc/tuxbox/config/ or /usr/keys/).

    Add two service definitions - one for your Stream Relay/SoftCSA channels, one for normal channels:


    # ncam.services - Group your channels by SRVID


    Code
    [streamrelay_channels]
caid = 0961
provid =
srvid = 1234,1235,1236,1237,


[normal_channels]
caid = 0961
provid =
srvid = 5678,5679,5680,5681



    Replace the SRVID numbers with the actual channel IDs you need to filter. You can list multiple SRVIDs on one line, separated by commas.



    2. Configure Your First Reader (Stream Relay / SoftCSA)

    In ncam.server, create a reader with disablecrccws = 1 and assign it ONLY the stream relay channels:




    3. Configure Your Second Reader (Normal Channels)

    Create a second reader for the same physical card with disablecrccws = 0 (or omit it entirely) and assign ONLY the normal channels:



    !!!!!

    You cannot have two readers using the same physical device (/dev/sci0) simultaneously . This is a known limitation - NCam will return a "Device or resource busy" error.

    Solution for Single Hardware Reader:


    Option A: Use Different Group Numbers (Simpler)

    Put the readers in different groups and use a client that can switch between them:

    Reader 1 (SoftCSA): group = 1, services = streamrelay_channels

    Reader 2 (Normal): group = 2, services = normal_channels


    Option B: Remote Reader via Proxy (Most Reliable)

    Run two NCam instances - one as a "proxy" that accesses the physical reader, the other as a client connecting to it via newcamd or cccam protocol :

    First NCam instance reads the physical card

    Second NCam instance connects to the first as a remote reader

    Each instance can have different disablecrccws settings


    Option C: Two Physical Readers (Ideal but requires extra hardware)

    If you have a second card reader (e.g., one internal, one USB), use device = /dev/sci0 for one and device = /dev/sci1 for the other.



    To find the SRVID for each channel: Zap to the channel on your receiver


    Check NCam Live Log for entries like:

    Code
    (dvbapi) Demuxer 0 ecmpid 0 CAID: 0961 ECM_PID: 1FFF PROVID: 000000 SRVID: 0C1A


    The SRVID: e.g. 0C1A value (in hex) is what you need



    Alternative: Filter by User Instead of Service

    If the two-reader method proves problematic, you can also filter by user in ncam.user:

    Code
    [account]
user = softcsa_user
services = streamrelay_channels
disablecrccws = 1


[account]
user = normal_user
services = normal_channels
disablecrccws = 0


    This gives you the same filtering but may work around the hardware reader limitation.

  • Ncam Emu by RAED

    You have two types of channels sharing the same CAID (0961):

    Stream Relay / SoftCSA channels → Need disablecrccws = 1

    Normal channels → Need disablecrccws = 0


    A global setting like disablecrccws = 1 affects all channels using that reader. That's why you can't have both working at the same time with a simple on/off switch.

    Remove both disablecrccws = 1 and disablecrccws = 0 from your ncam.server reader section.

    Instead add this: disablecrccws_only_for = 0961:000000,0961:XXXXXX

    Replace XXXXXX with the actual Provider ID of your Stream Relay / SoftCSA channels.


    Finding the Correct Provider ID

    Since both channel types use CAID 0961, you need to find the Provider ID that distinguishes them:


    Method 1: Check NCam Live Log:
    Zap to a non-working (Stream Relay / SoftCSA) channel

    Look for an ECM log entry like:

    Code
    (dvbapi) Demuxer 0 ecmpid 0 CAID: 0961 ECM_PID: 1FFF PROVID: 000000

    The number after PROVID: is what you need.


    Conclusion:

    In ncam.server:

    In ncam.conf:

    Code
    [dvbapi]
enabled                       = 1
pmt_mode                      = 6
extended_cw_api               = 1

    What If Both Use the Same Provider ID?

    If your logs show exactly the same CAID:PROVID for both channel types (unlikely but possible), then you have two options:


    Option A (Recommended): Use two separate readers with the same physical card but different settings (this works because you can filter by other criteria like srvid):

    Code
    [reader]
label = sky_uk_normal
disablecrccws = 0
services = normal_channels.txt

[reader]
label = sky_uk_softcsa  
disablecrccws = 1
services = streamrelay_channels.txt

    Option B: Try the broader approach (sometimes works):

    Code
    disablecrccws_only_for = 0961:000000,098D:000000,0E00:000000

    Bottom Line

    Try disablecrccws_only_for with the correct Provider ID first. This is the standard, proven solution for your exact problem and works in 95% of cases. Only if both channel types show identical Provider IDs should you move to the two-reader workaround.

    How do the built-in free servers in NCAM work?

    Sometimes they appear in readers by themselves and sometimes not.

    Are the free servers activated when NCAM is first launched?

    How often are the free lines checked by ncam?

  • afn has it left 9 east

    No way?! :beaming face with smiling eyes: Everybody knows that. Obviously you haven't understood my post. I'm talking about those new music channels.

    Btw legal customers of this service can now only watch AFN via the app in Europe. As far as I know, there's no cable TV inside the barracks.

  • DemonEditor

    Yes, i have added this transponder to satellites.xml. It's an occasional ocurring feed not a channel. I do not know the paramaters like SID,VPID, etc. in advance.

    The only info of the feed I have is taken from www. satelliweb . com

    Code
    Astra 1 (19.2°E)
Frequency: 10975 - Pol: H - SR: 3600 - FEC: -
Category:
Transmitted in: MPEG-4 4:2:2

    My aim is to manually safe this feed as a channel and than to to adjust my antenna to get this feed locked with the app Signalmeter.

    I just had a crash with E2, i.e., the box freezes on a Sky DE channel and the familiar “hammering” noise that was present at the beginning of icam oscam development is still there. I thought that had been solved in ncam. This problem was solved years ago in oscam.

    No need to behave childish. I told you once that you are using different architecture and different image. It's not the same. Stop trolling around.

  • Ncam Emu by RAED

    That was my config before which worked with former NCam version but not with current version. So I just replaced it with ..


    That's it.
