    Did the message take over the screen like part of the sly menu or was it a just a pop-up text type?
    Also, how long did it display before going?



    Are you still using your card in Thomson box?


    It was a pop up text type but it filled the majority of the screen, It was not possible to watch the programme with the message and I had to manually acknowledge the message before it would disappear


    I stopped using my Thomson when the first HD Movie chans changed to the new pairing (around 20th may) I hadnt seen the message again after Xmas. and the box was regularly reset (Full power down and new chan scan required)

    I check all streams regularly & no sign of it, I was thinking it was built into the last firmware update..


    Mine started doing this back in early december and was popping up every 15 mins or so. It stopped just before xmas which I presumed they had turned it off to avoid getting complaints over xmas period since it was quiet annoying. I have never seen the message again though.....


    There are many different sides to this situation, most are blaming the ebay sellers knocking out boxes for £90 which only last 2 months.
    The real culprit here is *** themselves, charging upto £80 per month on a 12 month contract, during such an economic crisis who can really be blamed for trying to get a "cheap" deal elsewhere? I mean even if it lasts 2 months I would have still saved a few quid to spend on better things, and Iv got a FTA box at the end of it.


    This whole service of tracking people down to recover the cost of a free gift is just dead in the water, your trying to "help" people who have been "ripped off" by charging them more money? I do hope your mate isnt banking on a retirement plan out of this?


    So is this back onto the payservers for charging on what is essentially a hobby? or is this back onto *** themselves who continue to charge extortinate subscription fees and tie us into contracts for a service which is available on the continent at a franction of the price?

    ok think I have found a work around for the meantime, if anyone else having issues can also test.


    i have tried 4 different instances and 3 worked perfectly the one that failed I changed
    ## oscam.conf
    clientmaxidle = 0



    increased this value to 500 as a test and it immediatly started working again. not sure why I can still use 0 in the other tests but at least this is a work around.

    I have seen the cccam proto clients issue reported (I did not have that issue myself & I could not reproduce it), but suli_3011 got his issue sorted and said it was a firewall issue, that just confused me.. Maybe when he is back online he can expand on that..


    I tried it on 3 other systems all worked fine, 1 compiled from source also tried the 32bit and 64bit binaries on other systems and all fine. also after restarting cccam on one attempt it actually started 1 connection but after further restarts it failed. I think its a config setting that is conflicting some where but the downgrade clearly fixes it. having checked the changes made between 9082 and 9083 i cannot see how this is effecting incoming clients???

    I have sent you pm's telling you what to do and you havnt taken my advice. You have been told here a number of times to try cccam and to check boxkey. If your asking for help then take our advice rather than teling us that you dont think it will work
