    There are many reasons why you should not get involved with a payserver. Firstly, there is a clue in the term 'Cardsharing'. You are not sharing anything with them, you are wasting money while adding to the problem. They are shady people, probably involved in shady activities, often the cards that clear the services originate from people who are unaware that one of their peers is a payserver, and they attract attention from providers who would otherwise turn a blind eye to peer to peer cardsharing. I suggest you spend some time reading on this forum and you will see what is possible, and look at buying a sub card to start you off.

    Couldn't tell you - sure someone somewhere with a vu will know! - in my receiver - which is enigma2, it is under network configurqtion, nas server configuration, then green button for mounts management, and the option is there when adding a new or modifying an existing mountpoint.

    Have got this working in the Qbox HD Mini, don't own a VU box (yet:-)) but it should be quite similar to do - the following is how I did it on the Qbox so some of the options might be a bit different;


    You need to go into the NAS server configuration, and configure it in 'mounts management' (green button) - by adding the new network point mount, activating, specifying a local share name - mount type (cifs if it is a windows type) enter the IP address of your shared LAN, then enter the name of the folder on the share. You then need to select 'yes' for use as HDD replacement, and has to be read and write (rw) on mount options.

    One thing I want to point out is if you are plugging in a USB drive to your LAN that was previously used as your PVR drive direct in the the receiver, you will need to sort out the permissions, or it won't work. I did this with FileZilla - just right click the HDD folder and change attributes to 777.

    first thing I notice is you have

    in your oscam.conf, which is good, and you also said that your peer logged on ok with cline. Are these peers logged on to your server already with cline? If they are, then the connection wll drop because of the above flag.

    Your card was working today in the original receiver and you are getting a card initializing error, so I don't think you have an entitlement issue. Your card is not being read properly. Can't see anything in your configs and you have tried what we suggested. You said yourself your reader was years old, maybe it is time to get another one:feel_good:


    This would happen if your frequency is wrong, or there is an issue with the card or reader. I would think the issue is physical, because it should work at the frequency it is initialising on. If your card is ok in the original box then there might be a problem with the reader. You didn't set a frequency in your reader entry in oscam.server. In mine i add;

    mhz = 500
    cardmhz = 357


    but I am not sure if this would make a difference because I think it should still work how it is if there wasn't any other issues.


    I had a similar issue with the same resulting log, and it turned out to be a bad card.

    try using the second settings with CCCam protocol but use this in oscam.conf instead for cccam entry

    [cccam]
    port = 12000
    reshare = 1
    version = 2.2.1
    stealth = 1


    I think the forward_origin_card = 1 is the bit that is causing the freezing, as it did in my experience.

    Don't know how it relates to your receiver, but for me to be able to use pcsc protocol on my receiver with OSCam, I have to enable it with OSCam simple panel (this is in Qbox HD Mini).


    Also you have device = 0 in your reader entry. this number depends on the port, and might be another number.

    oscam.dvbapi might be there but to use it it needs to be configured. If you open the oscam.dvbapi file then it may have some info there on what to enter in that file. basic line in that file is

    this is for sly but can be amended for other cards.


    in oscam.conf it needs to be switched on;

    [dvbapi]
    enabled =1
    boxtype = dreambox
    user = localuser
    au = 1



    and you need an entry in oscam.user


    Quote

    [account]
    user = localuser
    pwd =
    group = 1
    au = 1

    You can use DVBAPI to update your card.


    I am assuming you are using a dreambox based on your prev posts, if not i'd think you'd need to adjust the boxtype - anyway you have OSCam and an internal reader so you can easily use DVBAPI to update your card. Your internal reader entry looks fine. I have not missed an update since setting this up and can even be used to wake up dead cards and for PPV events. You need to have an entry in your oscam.conf

    [dvbapi]
    enabled = 1
    au = 1
    boxtype = dreambox
    user = dreambox_dvbapi


    and you also need an entry in oscam.user to use dvbapi when viewing.

    user = dreambox_dvbapi

    group = 1
    au = 1


    you also need to make sure that the oscam.dvbapi file has the following line (which is set for sly - and can be adjusted for other cards)

    or if your card is dead and needs waking, or you need to activate a PPV order then

    Make sure that if you have any readers in different groups, you are specifying the group in the dvbapi account entry in oscam.user, or you won' be able to read the card locally, just the same where you are setting groups for other users.


    Leave your receiver turned on on a sly encrypted channel such as picktv for example and you should get the update, eventually.
