    The previous post doesn't work for the triple card reader. There is no software utility that can update this or change any settings, which is why I would probably recommend getting 3 omnikey readers for half the price instead. However if you are stuck with one of these as I am, I found a possible fix on the argolis website so you can get this to work with Oscam. I am having some success at the moment with this but I think I might be missing something because I am still having some issues.


    I take it you have added
    dropbadcws = 1
    to oscam.server
    and hashed out the ecm whitelist to see if this improves it?


    I did a quick search and found the above as a possible fix elsewhere, but then I saw that you had also posted on that thread:haha: I know a lot of people are concerned about whether they need the ecm whitelist, so you might think it is a risk, but tbh some people are still using CCcam with a sly UK card without any issues, and this doesn't have a whitelist. So perhaps worth a try.


    I also noted that those who use debian as opposed to ubuntu seem not to get this issue, so if that is the case maybe it could be something to do with the way the system is managing the power. Might be worth trying as well as the above to try using the powered hub.


    Not tried any of the above and I haven't (yet) got an omnikey so this is all info I have seen from others with similar problems.

    Clearly it shouldn't be doing this, I take it you are referring to the omnikey USB reader? in fact these are known to work well with Oscam. More likely to be another issue - some people find it works better if you use it with a powered USB hub. but so long as it is not being used in a non powered hub with other devices, this still shouldn't happen. It might be an idea to post the output of your oscam logs at the time this is happening.

    the last quoted part of the guide (for smartreader support) seems to have some steps missing, so I will show what I had to do (at least if you are using the new Debian Raspbian “wheezy” image)



    not sure if all the above steps are needed but it seemed to work, the problem being that when uncompressing the file it creates in another folder, and also the ./configure needs to be done or there is no way that make and install will work.

    thanks turner123 I was replying to this thread as you were - so didn't see your post - but i think between us we have answered the question! - and agreed the only reason that most of us would want to restrict shares is to stop sending fake positive ecms for services like boxnation and premier sports, for the benefit of peers - not to restrict them to less services, especially as when they agreed the share it would have been on the basis of the services one said one had.

    so what exactly would you be trying to block out? - if you are using Oscam as a server you can use oscam.services
    http://linuxsat-support.com/os…uk-sid-assign-reject.html


    you just apply the services = flag to your entries in oscam.user


    I still think it is strange that you have decided to share with people but now you want to restrict them to less services, but maybe that is just me. So the people who are not giving you anything in return (your freinds and family) still get your full services but your peers (who are sharing their cards and hops with you) are to be restricted??


    Your ecms are lower with your peers because most of the people on your server will be watching sly uk, so will mostly be using your card rather than the peers. Maybe you could change the 'prefer local cards' flag in oscam.conf to 0 and read up in the oscam wiki about loadbalancing to see if you can do anything to share the load.

    There are many functions in a server. This is a hobby, and when someone shares with me - I share with them without restrictions, so poses the question - In what situation would you find this information useful? As I understand, your server is your card and 17 clients, so why would you want to withhold services from your friends and family?


    Maybe there might be some situation that in your context would be relevant to your question in a fair sense?


    I do know the answer to your question, but there are lots of things I know the answer to where oscam is concerned, but I won't necessarily share the answer unless I feel that it is useful information and of some benefit (for the good of, and in the nature of the hobby).


    There is an oscam wiki (down at the moment)
    http://streamboard.gmc.to/wiki/OSCam/en
    All what you might want to learn about oscam is there.

    GB is OK, does all that it is supposed to. Some parts are better then others, but for the money you can't fault it


    All it needs is more support, few images around, but for the last 3 months not much really is happening...


    sebus


    Have a look at the images section for this receiver. Yes it isn't perfect, but the support certainly isn't dwindling.


    TeamRed (and HDF mod)
    OpenAAF
    NeutrinoHD2
    ItalySat 2.0
    OpenMips
    SIF TeAm
    PB-Powerboard
    Persian Empire


    A lot of these began supporting the GigaBlue within the last 3 months, and most of the images (TeamRed apart) are updated regularly.


    I think you must have been hibernating, or maybe you are happy with the image you have so are not in need of looking for what is out there - which is quite a lot.

    Yes you can restrict your flines so you are not sharing a particular caid

    Code
    F: user pass 2 0 0 { 0:0:2, 0963:000000 } { } { }


    not used it before but from what i understand the above will stop you sharing anything on 0963

    sorry think i answered the CCcam.cfg nline question in an edit to my original reply. You are better off putting each card in a different group so you can have better control of your server. As I said each card put in a different group, and each card create a different port in newcamd protocol, and create a separate nline in CCcam.cfg for each card/port.

    oscam server



    oscam user




    oscam config



    separate nlines as per each account in oscam.user - note the different port for each card - these have to be correct in each nline in CCcam.cfg
