    Hello everyone, let me say THANK YOU first for all the posts everyone has put on here that has educated me enough to get this far.


    I am running chenbro astra, with a TBS card. I am successfully receiving a good signal and a scan shows me the PVIDs etc of a transponder I believe I have a good PowerVu key for. I setup Chenbro Astra with a standard NewCAMd that it supports and point it at my dedicated Ubuntu box running a freshly compiled oscam-1.20 with emu. The moment I think i have the configuration correct oscam crashes. It just disappears and I can no longer reach the OScam web interface and the service is no longer running. I restart everything and I can then get back in and everything is good until i start a stream then BOOM crash and the service stops and nothing. I have enabled the highest logging possible and my logs just stop the moment it sees the receiver.


    Starting with the Chenbro Astra config. Here is the Softcam config:

    Here is what the OSCAM log file looks like during startup and then when i start the stream.

    As you can see the "reciever" AKA my Chenbro Astra instance authenticates to OSCAM and thats it. Nothing. The service just stops.


    HELP! I have been working and reading on this for two weeks now. I am more than willing to trade info, help others with whatever I can. I desperately need this working.


    Thank you!

    I have a fresh install of OSCAM EMU running (1.20_svn Build: r11594-798) on Ubuntu along with Cesbo Astra. Astra is configured with SoftCAM pointed at OSCAM and tests successfully. Everything appears like it should work until I enable a stream in Astara looking to OSCAM for the key. Then OSCAM EMU locks up and is unresponsive, yet the server resources are barely 15%. The channel is not unscrambled and nothing happens. Very odd, no errors in the log it just stops. Any pointers in getting Cesbo Astra, OSCAM and PowerVU to play nice and get me the transponder I so desperately need!


    Config files are attached for review, any input would be appreciated.
