mgcamd for ARM receivers softcams?

[pabloescaban]

has anyone ever managed to get this working?
doesn't work using grogbuild or infinity on openatv 6.2
boxes tried so far:
H7c
H7s
H9t
H9s
is there something else you need to download or update?
does the CWS line still go in usr/keys or is it in some weird crappy folder like etc/iproute or some other folder no one knows about?

Installed the one from the plugin server. It did not have the config files in /usr/keys, so transferrred them. Restarted receiver. Started it using the new softcam control method not the "softcam panel" that everyone is infatuated with, worked fine.

I run it fine in Vix on my Gigablue UHD UE 4K. Similar cpu to H7.
Not tried the Atv version but I have Atv on multiboot so can try easily when I get a moment.

H9 might be trickier as it's a 64-bit cpu, but H7 should not have a problem (in theory) with the versions that work on my box, VU Solo 4k etc.

Btw reflashing Vix image and restoring settings/plugins killed it on mine but I just had to reinstall the plugin. The restore had almost restored it but not the library symlinks.

Update - had a spare ten minutes. No doesn't work. It's there and attempts to start but doesn't become active.

I think your best route to success might be vix on H7.

I did not try on a 64 bit SOC, tried it on a GB UE 4K

Ive found this version which works on openATV for my uno4K ARM box

Install it this way
1: Copy over the ipk to the tmp folder via filezilla and install as a local extension
2: Copy over the contents in the folder to usr/keys and overwrite everything
3: Edit the newcamd.list in the usr/keys folder with your line. It has to be in the CWS format. If you have a c line put it into the cccam.list file
4: Select mgcamd1.35 in the Infopanel/SoftcamPanel menu

Post back if it works

Works on my duo4k, just had to add the mg_cfg file. Not tried on the h7 though

I've got grogbuild freerange on my vu+ Uno 4K arm box and mgcamd is working perfectly - mgcamd (1.38-r0)

 

[pabloescaban]

So it's just the Zgemma ARM boxes it doesn't work on then

openvix it is

 

[grog68]

I've not heard of any reports from zgemma users since updating the softcams in grogbuild last week. The mgcam softcam has installed hasn't it?

 

[pabloescaban]

mgcamd works fine on mips Zgemma boxes, doesn't work at all on ARM variations

 

[ziggy317]

I have zgemma h7C and gray 1313 method works for me using mgcamd

On open atv?

 

[ziggy317]

Yes mate on open atv 6.2

 

[pabloescaban]

Yes mate on open atv 6.2

In an earlier post you said you were using a H2h?
Softcam setup help

 

[ziggy317]

I have 2 boxes it works on h7c

 

[Wayne38]

The way gray did it works on zgemma h9t just done it works perfect

 

[Abu Baniaz]

Might be issue with mg_cfg and box type being on auto (00)

 

[grog68]

Might be issue with mg_cfg and box type being on auto (00)

Ah box type in the mg_cnf file in grogbuild freerange is set to:

06 dreambox/mips

But it's working on other arm boxes. should I change it to 00 Auto?
