    All,


    I have a Vu+ Duo running BH 1.6.2,


    I've uninstalled any plugins I'll never use (ie. anything to do with playing external media, music, photos etc) and only have 3 peers,


    I've a 32MB swap file but still my memory fluctuates between 75 and 99% in use!


    Seems a bit high considering?

    I had motored on in the meantime....Everything restored fine except my extra OSCam & CCcam lines....painless really!


    Will check out Master G's backup in the meatime pem1, cheers!

    Hi guys,


    I am running BH 1.6 Sly UK ready and my OSCam looks like this -



    oscam.conf




    oscam.server




    oscam.user


    Code
    [account]
    user = test1
    description = for local mgcamd or DVBAPI
    pwd = test2
    disabled = 0
    uniq = 1
    group = 1
    au = lower card
    caid = 0963:000000



    My Sly card is in the top slot of my Vu+ Duo, my Al Jaz in the slot below...


    I've read Master G's config post here but must admit I'm not sure what to add and what to amend :06:


    Its all dead easy when you know how!


    Any help appreciated!

    Guys,


    Stupid newb Q....


    I initially installed BH 1.6 Sly UK ready and further installed BH PB when it came out as a standalone...


    If I reflash to 1.6.2 and restore PB from USB, what *won't* be restored?


    Are cool TV guide, OSCam, CCcam and all the other 1.6 Sly ready add ons going to be there?


    I probably should manually do everything but am busy learning as I go so this was an easy initial solution!

    v season has 200 clients connected when footie on and they have no issues with the streaming buddie

    I'm talking from a home point of view, not commercially (unless I misunderstand you!)


    If you were streaming to 200 clients from a home connection and your ISP didn't shut you down I'd like their name!

    I'm currently using it via the hdmi cable and the menus don't get cut off but when I plug in a scart socket it gets cut off.
    Is hdmi connection the only way everything will be displayed properly on screen?



    Seems to be....Is this for sending the signal to another TV?

    I guess the problem with that sort of streaming is its very quickly flagged to your ISP!
    Imagine streaming 30Mbit down and 20 up 24/7 lol...We host a large insurance site that would be lucky to do 1/10 that and they've nearly 20 servers!


    Anybody got a slingbox?

    What do you fancy watching on it? If you rip to MKV you're still talking at least 7GB per movie...40 mins of HDTV in MKV format is about 1.1GB...


    Would you be viewing on your laptop or outputting to your TV/projector?

    aye I just use it for BD rips and TV torrents....tried the tuner thing briefly but it was too much hassle in 7MC so I just kept them separate!


    I'm hitting 30TB of data between movies and TV series so it can grow quite quickly! I do take full ISO rips of BD's though so they take up more space than MKV's!


    If you're looking to put 2 tuner cards in you'll likely have to go 4U so WAF might be an issue if you don't hide it away somewhere!

    Go for it! You'll not regret it...and you can build something half decent for a few hundred quid!


    I'm using 7MC setups with a newly installed 20 drive unit so I'm filling space fast lol....just finishing up the latest kit so will get some pics up asap!


    heres a couple of old pics from my MediaBrowser setup -



    One thing I've pretty much stopped watching on satellite is movies!


    Since building an HTPC setup a couple of years ago with full HD BD rips I've all but give up on TV films (unless its Christmas or the odd classic I don't have is on!)


    Anyone else? :02:
