Oscam For Openvix Guide.

[spiderman01]

has jfish says you need 3 files
these are located here /etc/tuxbox/config if using openvix

Hi guys. I attach a few screenshots so see if you know what's happening. I managed to get to the Oscam web interface briefly and I have taken this snaps. The Oscam.config file and Oscam.user file are there but the softcam can read it (or it's empty file). Just give me your thoughts boys.

 

[southsimon]

as suggested my thought, install Wiilobuild. all the files you need will be there. then just replace the oscam.server file with your own.

 

[ianw314]

should be /etc/tuxbox/config / .... not etc/tuxbox/config/config

 

[spiderman01]

should be /etc/tuxbox/config / .... not etc/tuxbox/config/config

THANK YOU IANW314!!!!!!!!

That's what it was. I have followed the guide but that little detail has driven me crazy. Thanks guys all good now.

Oscam is getting more popular and seems more and more people looking to get it running so I thought I would paste the email I send to people that ask me for instructions with attached config needed to get you going on Vix, the port I use is :9000, standard port is 8888 if people want to use the instructions with other config files.

This is for vix, if your using ATV then there is a separate thread here Techkings


Install oscam ( I recommend r9620 r18 ) on your box via the plugins, softcams option but the latest will be fine


I've attached a zipped config folder for oscam,



Download and unzip the file attached to somewhere easy to remember/access ( I use desktop )


Then using Filezilla or your FTP program of choice, connect to your box and navigate to the ETC folder, then find Tuxbox folder, drag the whole unzipped config folder to the tuxbox folder. Overwrite if prompted.


Once thats done go to your box and bring up softcam manager, I use blue button then softcam manager
Untick and stop any cams ticked to autostart and tick oscam to autostart, MAKE SURE YOU STOP ALL RUNNING CAMS, now highlight oscam and select restart/start, it should restart without error if applied ok. It must be restarted to allow access to the webinterface.


When oscam is restarted after applying the config file go to computer and enter your box ip address into the browser bar followed by :9000 that's full colon not semi, so something like 192.168.0.3:9000
press enter or go whatever your browser needs to go to the address.


Oscam web interface should appear.. if it don't appear try rebooting your box..and try again..make sure ip address of box has not changed...this can be found in menu, information, network


Now at the top look for the tab/word Files, click this and then a sub menu will appear, click on oscam.server, in here you will see the examples that I've put in for you, its set up for 2 lines, but you can add more or just run one, edit these with your own details. There's a comma between the server address and port, this must remain, be careful not to delete by accident


Once you've edited it with your details scroll to the bottom of the page and select save, then scroll to the top and select restart tab on top right of page, then on pop up click restart or ok, wait 10 secs and try and see if channels clear.

Sometimes a box reboot is needed.


If using Newcamd readers you will have to turn your box on to a premium channel to instigate a connection, cccam readers will connect without going to premium channel.


On the Oscam web interface status page you will see connected at the right hand side of the screen, if it says unknown then something not right, check the live log tab to see what the error is


Also on the oscam web interface the live log tab will update every 8 secs on sat and every 10 secs on cable with your ECM's if your interested. It will also tell you if something is wrong like incorrect password, what server its using, etc


For an example of how to enter your line, here's an example


CWS = your.server.com port username password 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14


or


N: your.server.com port username password 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14



[reader]
label = TV1
protocol = newcamd
device = your.server.com,port
key = 0102030405060708091011121314
user = username

inactivitytimeout = 60
group = 1
emmcache = 1,3,31
blockemm-unknown = 1
blockemm-u = 1
blockemm-s = 1
blockemm-g = 1


I hope this helps,

Hi there please help. If I put the config file in wrong is it true the oscam in the menu would not start up as its stating live and I have a green tick on it. My problem now is after putting in all my details in the oscam website I've entered 2 clines but in the status box it just has unknown

Hi there. Sorry to bother you but I have a problem and I think you may be able to resolve for me. I followed your fantastic guide and everything is fine. Except one thing. The picture freezes often and it didn't and doesn't do while using softcam 2.3.0. Someone has suggested to change the oscam.config file (I was using yours, downloaded from the config folder) and it seems the freezing has stopped. However, the file is extremely long and doesn't look like yours and it also seems the channel change takes a bit longer. This is the link to the discussion: Oscam freezing problems

Could you please share some light? Thanks.

So the problem is just that it takes a bit longer to zap channels?
Just look at the epg and decide what you want to watch and then select that channel rather than zapping through them all.

No Willo3092. Everyhting remains the same as freezing continues. I have been watching TV and freezing continues. On top, channel zapping takes a bit longer than usual.

If using Newcamd readers you will have to turn your box on to a premium channel to instigate a connection

I followed all the other steps, but I can't find this setting? I do have a Newcamd reader

Thanks

[goatie]

great guide, worked for me first time, I'm too old to think stuff out now so guide was great help
edited the oscam.server file and edited oscam.conf (as supplier had given me extra line in conf)

 

[jimbofz]

great helpful guide went from cccam to oscam on vix 2.5.025 vuduo ,opens everything that cccam did ,no problem
but on my other vuduo using openatv 6.3 and oscam ,
i can open more ,why is this ,
could it be i need a different version of oscam for vix?, or is it the limitation of vix image?
the reason i changed was to be able to open these extra chans any ideas
thanks again for tutorial

I have been 'toiling' for three days trying to get Oscam to work with my Fransat card on my Zgemma H92S with Openvix, your guide has solved the problem and all working fine now. Many thanks for posting.
