Hi , newbie question ...
is there any hidden trap in updating NDS Videoguard2 card from providers EMM on fly ?
I see leathery all posted configs for those card containing at least :
blockemm-u = 1
blockemm-s = 1
blockemm-g = 1
what is benefit of saving emm-u , and manually updating card with them ?!
this log is too short .
What you expect to see from 1 second log
anyway its vivacom and its needs k1 des key
- base year - always 1997
- valid to - bizarre date
the things i dont expect . =)
and of course the question :
Can someone please confirm that this is normal for oscam
Try building with this patch from the streambord. I think is the same problem.

Hi , first time trying NDS cards . Notice somethings that looks strange:
- no matter the boxid value - card always initialize successfully - even with 00000001 .
- base year - always 1997
- valid to - bizarre date , even card is updated and working in provider receiver .
Can someone please confirm that this is normal for oscam , and expected , rather than wrong boxid or misconfiguration ?
ps - older versions show 2004 .
