    Just to update the thread - i had 2 oscam builds loaded on my solo2 - one build 5953 and the other build 8845. Before the match started I loaded the earlier build and what do you know? No glitching at all locally for the whole 90 minutes. I'm going to run this build for the next few days and if I don't get any glitching then will try 8845 again just to see if glitching comes back with that build. Only downside is that I am running on my Solo2 so I can't tinker with images etc as I like doing (the main reason why I moved to a RPi solution).

    Hi all,


    I have a setup where a RPi is running Raspbian / Oscam with 2x Omnicard readers (1 running $ly HD and the other Asian channels). It has been rock solid since Christmas when I set it up. Originally it was serving just my house but I have added a few mates and family and now there are 14 users. Lately I have been noticing glitching on HD channels but ECM's remain between .1-.2. I thought that maybe the RPi was not up to the task being somewhat limited in the horsepower department so I tried running the cards in my Solo2. This has a 1.3ghz cpu so would rule out any cpu limitations of the RPi but it's doing the same - glitching on HD channels. Maybe not as bad but still there. Now I am thinking maybe the card is being overworked but wouldn't that show on ECM times? This is all on the internal network so it rules out my internet connection.


    Might it still be a cpu limitation on the Solo2, card overloaded? or is the issue likely somewhere else? Any pointers at what to look for?

    Hi all,


    Does anyone know how many users a PI can handle at once? I have slowly been upping the number of users on my server. It is now at 14 and I am noticing that every so often the picture will freeze for a few seconds and then come back (maybe a couple of times an hour - maybe more) - almost like glitching but the ECM times don't rise. This is on my internal network too. I am thinking that maybe the RPi is being overloaded or maybe even my card is being overloaded? Not sure but it's beginning to bug me. I have tried a fresh install with latest OScam but no difference. Anyone experience similar?

    Hi,


    I had a spare RPi so thought I would give this tutorial a go.


    Worked like a charm and am running OScam fine - one thing I was not sure on was whether rebooting the RPi every day is necessary? I used to run OScam on my VU Duo for weeks/months on end with no issues so don't see why the Rpi should be any different. Is it because it has a slower cpu/memory or just as a precaution?

    Hi, I run a VU Duo with 2 Sly UK cards. For some reason, only the card in slot 1 auto updates. I use Oscam to read the card and CCcam. It doesn't matter which card it is but as long as its in slot 1 it will update but if its in slot 2 then it won't. I know it is probably something silly in my settings as originally they were only for 1 card and I bodged the settings to make them work with 2 cards.


    Any help appreciated.
