    If no one is sharing with you, then you will be hop1=0 hop2=0 hop3=0. once you receive a share, if the person you are sharing with has a local then you will have one at hop 1, and if they have some at hop 1 and are able to share that with you, then they will be at your hop 2 and so on. What you receive can only then be reshared with others if they arrive to you with a reshare. This can be dependant on whether the person who has the card as their local allowed this, as they can set how many hops down that card can be reshared, which is often only 1 hop down (i.e if you receive this at hop 1 you can share it with someone, but when they get it, it will be at hop 2, and with no reshare available). Because of this, then it is true to say that if you have no local, you find it harder to get reshares.

    Mine arrived this morning - will post back with my findings - the EagleBox Mini that is. Unpacked it, and only negative is no batteries for the remote, and the usual bad translation in the manual, but who reads the manual! Strikingly tiny, you are talking Jean Pocket tiny - I can confirm it fits in my pocket! It has LNB IN and LNB OUT, one USB port, HDMI, and the remote works with a remote eye so you can pop the unit behind the telly and use the remote fine. Has other sockets such as RS-232, AV and Digital Audio, Anyway, I need to have a play with it!

    if your latitude is ****** and your longitude is *******, you have told everyone to a good degree where you live. Looks like a lovely street on google street view!

    Do you have any need to have groups 1,2, and 3, and set up a different group for each reader? - not sure if it is causing your issues but in my setup I use just one group unless I have a reader I don't want to share.

    I would use ftp. The picon and LCD files are located in \usr\share\enigma2 - and if you download them just paste the folder in here and overwrite existing files. You can edit the picons and lcds by changing the filename to correspond with the service reference of the corresponding channel - for example - 1_0_1_1A30_7DD_2_11A0000_0_0_0.png referrs to the service reference number 1:0:1:1A30:7DD:2:11A0000:0:0:0: - note that the : is replaced by_


    To find the service reference number of the channel you want to set a picon or lcd to, simply zap to the channel, select 'menu', 'information', 'current channel information'.

    You don't add it to the qbox, it is a java application, looks like it links up with free server addresses. Unzip it, run the applet (the .jar file) and go to the preferences, and add your qbox's ip address, username (root) and password (qboxhd - unless you changed it) close and restart. It appears that it then allows you to use it to get free server info and then submit it to radar softcam, or enter your own details. I would suggest you read up into using OSCam and getting to know your servers, rather than using this. Radar is very limited unless you are only interested in the client side of things, but this usually involves free and payservers which it is a good idea to steer clear of!

    Being born in the 70s I kind of saw the change as it was happening! The cane was banned while I was at school, there was playing on go carts and bikes, knock down ginger, firework and stone fights, but back home to the Atari 2600 and Commodore Vic 20! Microwaves were luxury in the 80s and sat tv was luxury in the early 90s. I also remember making my own way to and from school when I was 5 years old. University and home ownership was just for the middle classes, but this all changed!


    Oh and we all had a bath once a week on a sunday!


    Times they are a changin'!

    Think you should have a chat with 'John'!


    Good thing is you are kind of stopping it happening by having Oscam set to drop duplicate users. Maybe set up another user account for your mate and set up failban

    I added this to my oscam.services file


    [FreeSAT]
    caid = 0963
    srvid = CB25,0F12,1E1E,1E1F,1E23,1E24,D435,C5C1,13EF,13F3


    services = FreeSAT in my reader file


    and this blocks out all requests for other channels apart from the extra 'free' channels that a freesat from sly provides. Didn't manage to get everything with the files above but it is easy enough to make your own!

    I am having issues with ports and this has given me an idea as to what my problem might be. I even bought a new router I have read that talktalk might be majorly blocking ports and being on talktalk I am scre3ed If I want to share
