Latest versions:

Looks like you have the wrong version of oscam-emu. Try using the pli version. (New oplenpli4 uses different ssl libraries)

build_dir_sh4 = UFS-9XX, Kathrein - works on UFS910?

Yes, that is correct.

Was it a 0 or 1?

I have done it before, and don't recall any specific problems with it being from nfs.
Here is a script I use on my linux server to extract the files from the image into a directory for the nfs share:

#!/bin/bash




## Script to extract e2jffs2.img filesystem using mtd kernel modules.




if [[ $# -lt 1 ]]
then
    echo "Usage: $0 e2jffs2.img Destination_Dir"
    echo "(Full or relative paths can be used)"
    exit 1
fi




if [ '$(whoami)' != 'root' ]
then
    echo "$0 must be run as root!"
    exit 1
fi




if [[ ! -e $1 ]]
then
    echo "$1 does not exist"
    exit 1
fi




if [[ -d $2 ]]
then
    echo "$2 already exists!!"
    exit 1
else
    mkdir $2
fi




if [[ ! -d $2 ]]
then
    echo "$2 is not a valid extract directory"
    exit 1
fi




# cleanup if necessary
umount /tmp/e2jffs2 &>/dev/null
umount /tmp/mtdblock0 &>/dev/null
modprobe -r jffs2 &>/dev/null
modprobe -r block2mtd &>/dev/null
modprobe -r mtdblock &>/dev/null
sleep 0.25
losetup -d /dev/loop1 &>/dev/null
sleep 0.25




modprobe loop || exit 1
losetup /dev/loop1 "$1" || exit 1
modprobe block2mtd || exit 1
modprobe jffs2 || exit 1
if [[ ! -e /tmp/mtdblock0 ]]
then
    mknod /tmp/mtdblock0 b 31 0 || exit 1
fi




echo "/dev/loop1,128KiB" > /sys/module/block2mtd/parameters/block2mtd




if [[ ! -e /tmp/e2jffs2 ]]
then
    mkdir /tmp/e2jffs2
fi




mount -t jffs2 -o ro /tmp/mtdblock0 /tmp/e2jffs2 || exit 1




(cd /tmp/e2jffs2; tar cf - .) | (cd "$2" ; tar xpf -) || exit 1







# cleanup if necessary
#umount /tmp/jffs2 &>/dev/null
#umount /tmp/mtdblock0 &>/dev/null
#modprobe -r jffs2 &>/dev/null
#modprobe -r block2mtd &>/dev/null
#modprobe -r mtdblock &>/dev/null
umount /tmp/e2jffs2
#umount /tmp/mtdblock0
modprobe -r jffs2
modprobe -r block2mtd
modprobe -r mtdblock
sleep 0.25
#losetup -d /dev/loop1 &>/dev/null
losetup -d /dev/loop1
sleep 0.25




rmdir /tmp/e2jffs2
rm /tmp/mtdblock0




cp $(dirname $1)/uImage $2/boot/




echo "Successfully extracted $1 to $2"
exit 0

Note: it assumes the uImage file is in the same directory as the e2jffs2.img file is

I think I posted something here a long time ago about setting up the alien2 to boot from usb/nfs. I will look for it when I get a chance...

Moving Picture Experts Group. The compression used for audio and video. Not sure why they use it in the label since it is usually the default (standard) encoding. Probably just used here to indicate it is not ac3.. (And dos is obviously 2.)

Not sure if it is ok to post this link, but it is quite helpful for finding matches..

(if you hover the mouse over the channels, a pop-up will show the sats/freqs and encryptions...)

Sorry, but I deleted that image from my NFS server about 6 months ago because I hadn't used it in more than one year. Yes it was a pretty good image, but finally unusable because it is not maintained.

I am not familiar with the megasat LNB, so I cannot really comment on it, but you cannot always trust the specs from manufacturers (actually almost never.) LNBs need to perform over a wide range of frequencies, but manufacturers give specs for at best only the best performing frequency and at worst only theoretical values. I would trust other user's real world experience over manufacturers data. Of course I guess that is why you posted the question here. :) Also you may want to read this thread about multiple feed LNBs:http://linuxsat-support.com/showthread.php?t=95408

A friend had the same situation. Since he never used the two receivers at the same time, he used the loop-through connector from receiver 1 to connect to receiver 2. At night, he turned off receiver 1, then the upstairs receiver could control the motor. But, like they say, "never say never" and it turned out that only 95% of the time they weren't used at the same time and the 5% became annoying. (Also annoying was when he forgot to turn off receiver 1 and was already upstairs in bed....) Finally he bought a twin LNB and connected like you have now and used something similar to jenseneverest and watched his main sat from the local tuner on receiver 2 and used the remote tuner config from receiver 1 to watch other sats. (or after moving the dish with remote tuner, then he could use the local tuner...)

Another option, if you are not changing sats much and have a phone or tablet, you can install the vuplus player app and use it to control receiver 1 to move the dish, then watch on receiver 2...

"chewing into the memory" meaning flash memory or ram? Plugins can chew up both...

Running from usb flash is doable. I did for a short time, but now I run most of my images from an NFS server.

Did you try latest version in post #6?

Is it this version work on Solo2, Openpli 4?

As far as I know, there is no fix for vu+ boxes yet.

No, just make sure the user and password match.
But it maybe depends on which version of oscam info you have installed...

[webif]
httpport = 8888
httpuser = 
httppwd = 
httpallowed=127.0.0.1,192.168.0.1-192.168.0.255,192.168.1.1-192.168.1.255

I think some versions have a problem if you set a password???
You can try matching passwords first, then if that doesn't work, remove the password from oscam.conf

Updated - fix for problems when switching between powervu encrypted and other encrypted channels. and other small fixes.

Try a newer version of oscam-emu, those freezes have been fixed since 10943.
And yes, including ecm in streams is better.
( I know you probably read this before ;) but others may not have... )

But better yet would be to try very latest oscam-emu which supports powervu without stream relay... (dreambox only)

Oscam-emu now supports powervu without streamrelay (on dreambox only...)

I don't have a dreambox, so did not test.

PowerVU config
==============




Keys in SoftCam.Key:
	P <srvid> <nb> <key>
	example:
	P 1234 01 11223344556677




	For channels with same srvid: (UPDATED!!!)
	Channel #1: P 1234 01 11223344556677
	Channel #2: P 1234 01 11223344556677
	Channel #3: P 1234 01 11223344556677

	AU keys:
	P <srvid> <UA> <key>
	example:
	P 1234 11223344 11223344556677




On compatible Dreambox STBs:




	1) Disable the Stream Relay (on by default):
		Webif -> Config -> Stream Relay -> Mode
			0 - disabled

		or in oscam.conf:	

		[streamrelay]
		stream_relay_enabled = 0

	2) Select the correct DVB-Api extended CW API:
		Webif -> Config -> DVB-Api -> API for extended CWs
			1 - OE 2.2
			2 - OE 2.0

		or in oscam.conf:

		[dvbapi]
		extended_cw_api = 2







On other devices the Stream Relay must be used:

I think there are not many c-band users here. Maybe you can try to post on the openpli forum???

Since nobody has answered, I will try to answer what I can. I tried OPENPCTV over a year ago, but never really got it working - it was early, so I am hoping/guessing they have gotten all (most) of the bugs out by now. I did however install enigma2pc on an existing linux server and used it, but just a little. (I have since switched to tvheadend...) I assmue you already read robijay's post: http://linuxsat-support.com/showthread.php?t=78503

1. You can watch multiple channels, as long as they are all on the same transponder. The limit depends on cpu and network speed (and cpu is dependent on whether or not the channels are encrypted...)
2. Basically same limitation as above. I never tested more than 3, but 3 put very little load on the system.
3. If I recall correctly, default was dhcp and can be changed with enigma2 or through linux shell. (I made a lot of configuration changes through a telnet session because it was easier for me.)
4. Yes, but maybe not through the default setup menus - you may have to configure by hand.
5. I know for sure oscam/oscm-emu which should be enough for most uses.
6. Default settings of oscam should handle this.
7. It should work, but I did not test with a TBS card, I only tested with an old dvb-s skyster2 card.
8. I do not know???

Prophet: Yes, 100+ with no problem (almost)
I am using 3 x Sly UK with 3 x OmniKey
ecm some times goes as high as 1000-1200

any recommendation?

Use some of the proceeds from your pay server to buy more cards and readers.

Sorry, I paid more attention to the title, than the text and thought you were using the vu+ player WITH vlc on your phone. In vu+ player there is an option to select which player you use...

For vlc on the desktop, you can try tools->messages (ctrl+m) and on the bottom left set the verbosity to "2(debug)" and maybe it will give you a hint.

Have you tried restarting the box just before streaming and see if it makes a difference? I have never had problems streaming on my lan with my slower alien2 - even when it and my laptop/tablets were both connected by wifi.

The only thing I did notice was that streams seem to be more susceptible to bad signals in your satellite reception...
