Non standard softcam

Hi all,
I've put a line on my box, and when I try and start it it comes up with the following message

Trying to start non standard softcam , this may fail

Which, inevitably, it does,
I'm a complete novice at this, any idea,?
 
Edision OS Mini = Linux Enigma2 receiver, you can use any cam you like the popular being Cccam,Mgcamd and Oscam
 
I've put it in etc and var as I didn't know which one it was, I ticked mgcam and newcamd it shows mgcam being active, but newcamd (my line) keeps giving me the non standard message , even if only it us ticked
 
If your using an 'N:' line then this line works with Mgcamd and generally all files are located in /usr/keys folder on the Box with the 'N:' line going inside the newcamd.list and replacing the 'N:' part with CWS =
 
Ye, sorry, I do have it in usr/keys as well, and it starts CWS =
Ive followed bees guide and my server has sent me the line ready to go straight in.
Is it meant to come up as a separate selection from mgcam? It shows on my box as another selection below mgcam
 
Go back into softcam manager and make sure all the Cams are switched to off.

Then activate MG Cam 1.38 only.

If you have two cams active at the same time you will get errors.

Before this,

Make sure your line is in the newcamd.list file and begins with CWS =
and make sure the newcamd.list and mg_cam file is sent to usr/keys

If you put a CCcam.cfg file in the ETC folder, take it out for now so it can't cause a problem.
 
Thanks bees, I think you may be right, I have too many things and maybe not in the right places so causing conflicts.
I'll start afresh tonight when I get home.
Do I have to activate the newcamd in the softcam menu?
 
Yeah, download Mg Cam 1.38 from the plugins menu.

Put newcamd.list with your line details in and the mg_cam file in to usr/keys

Go to softcam manager/CI

Green Button - Start

Blue Button - Enable Start Up

Make sure only one cam is active !!!! (y)
 
ok,
so now I have my newcamd.list and mg.cfg in usr/keys
and only have mgcam ticked
but nothing is showing as active,

Im lost now, :(

Yeah free tests only last 24hrs usually from when you request it.

Somebody on here may test it for you if you ask, I would normally offer
but I have to go out now,

You can PM me the details if you are stuck but I won't be back on till about 10pm
 
I only got the line at 9pm last night,
anyway,
Im going to do a system reset,
and start all over again from fresh,
see how that goes, I may have messed something up,
 
Pm me your line will test it a return answer within ten minutes if line is active as you said you got it at 9pm it should be active.

Line is active come on immediately pm your email i will send you your line in a newcamd.list and send my mg-cfg file so you no they both work.

Line now removed from my box and will delete from pm

Emailed your line in newcamd.list form and my working mg-cfg transfer to usr/keys and restart mgcamd 1.38 thats all i done and worked straight away.
 
finally, all sorted
many thanks dillyp70
seems I messed it up, :(

so I reflashed the box, got everything cleared out of it, put the files as remade for me by dillyp70 in the RIGHT place this time, and only the one place,
and now all is good,,,,,

this forum is the best, :yes!:
