Adding oscam to cccam

[leedsboy]

Hi
At the moment I have a linux server running cccam 2.1.4 and can see my connections by logging on via my browser. I still have an issue with not seeing premium channels and from what I have read I would perhaps be better adding oscam to my server. I tried Jaxo's automated tutorial but am really lost as how it hangs together. Therefore I would like to add oscam manually to get a feel for what I am doing. If I upload it to the correct folders, does it run along side cccam automatically, I know I add an n line to my cccam.cfg and edit the three main oscam files. Does oscam read my sly card and then cccam distributes the shares? Any guidance would be great.
Cheers

I dont know too much about Oscam tbh but if you are not clearing premium channels using CCcam then I would suggest you have not entered your boxkey correctly ;)

Boxkey was ok but I had it boxkey dev/sci0 rather than dev/USB0, premium channels back on, thanks for pointing me in right direction.

Glad your sorted m8 :)

i am assuming you have sly uk .
anything in red you can change to your need .

Oscam.server

[reader]
label = skyuk
enable = 1
protocol = internal
device = dev/sci0
caid = 0963
boxid = xxxxxxxx ( not needed as oscam can read boxid )
detect = cd
mhz = 500
cardmhz = 500
ident = 0963:000000
group = 1
emmcache = 1,3,2
lb_weight = 101
blockemm-g = 1
blockemm-unknown = 1


Oscam.conf


[global]
logfile = /var/local/oscam.log
cachedelay = 120
nice = -1
maxlogsize = 0
saveinithistory = 1

[newcamd]
port = 15500@0963:000000
key = 0102030405060708091011121314
keepalive = 1


[webif]
httpport = 15000
httpuser = user
httppwd = password
httprefresh = 10
httpallowed = 127.0.0.1,192.168.0.0-192.168.255.255

Oscam.user

[account]
user = user
pwd = pass
uniq = 2
monlevel = 1
caid = 0963
ident = 0963:000000
group = 1
au = skyuk

Use this N line in cccam.cfg if you want to use the Newcs protocol to connect to CCcam. Only use 256 if using CCCam 2.1.3 or below . to show your card as a local .

N: 127.0.0.1 15500 user pass 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 256

the username & pass in account & N line must be the same .

the port number in newcamd must be the same as in your N line .

256 @ the end of the N line is to show your card as local .

with these settings your card will update providing you gave a close & known peer a C line like this :

C: myserver.dyndns.tv 13001 user pass yes

the yes @ the end is required for the known peer to send EMM to update the card .

in the F line for this peer it should look like this

F: user pass 1 0 1 { 0:0:2 }

the 2nd 1 allows the EMM to update your card .

you can see your entitlements by opening the web brower & entering the box ip with the webif port .

oscam with cccam will only show your card as local ( hop0 ) with 2.1.3 or earlier versions . cccam 2.1.3 is the better option .

make sure the config directory has 755 attribute & the 3 oscam files in that directory have attribute 644

oscam.conf
oscam.server
oscam.user

oscam will only read your card & forward it via the N line to CCcam . you then give C lines to your peers as usual .

upon putting all your settings together make sure you stop oscam then cccam via blue panel .

restart oscam then cccam . this allows oscam to read the card before cccam .

any changes to configs in oscam will take effect upon restart of oscam .

there are many other settings that you can have but this is a basic setting to get going .

you should be up & running mate .

Excellent guide Guli
As I said know very liitle about Oscam, so I have afew questions.
1. Is it only a matter of downloading the 3 files you mention or is there a full version of oscam to be downloaded.
2. The location of the 3 files, from reading up I think it is /usr/local/etc, is this correct?
3.My debian server is up and running and working well with CCcam 2.1.04, at long last with thanks to AFc, Jaxo, Balderdash etc, is it worth me changing to 2.1.3 and adding oscam?
4. I have used chmod 755 but never heard of attribute 644, what is it?
5. If I make the changes you say and add n line to cccam config then oscam reads card rather than cccam, do I have to remove anything or change anthing else in CCcam?
6. You mentioned stopping oscam then cccam via blue panel, but I am using old pc as debian server, just wondering how this sequence works with server? I still have keyboard and screen attached to server at the moment, but hopefull can discard these eventually.

Hopefully my stupid questions will help others.

tell me more about your setup in detail + what card you have .

are you using a smargo etc with the pc.
are you using the pc as a server & passing onto a reciever
that kind of details etc .


if you are just using cccam to read your card & sharing from there on , you may have noticed that pick tv + pick tv +1 do not open & will not open with just cccam .

it is a process by which more & more channels will be lost .

as cccam is currently not being developed & oscam is . it is a better option to have the card read by oscam & passed onto cccam for reshare .

oscam does open all channels including the ones mentioned earlier .

oscam is continuosly being developed . oscam can read a lot more cards than cccam .
oscam is a lot stable these days .

it is upto you to decide what setup you want as only you know what you want to achieve .

Hi
Using a pc with debian as server and smargo cardreader with sly card sharing to my techno 500 and a couple of friends. As I said all looks good at the moment but as you state long term I would be better reading card with oscam and sharing via cccam. I hope to get tring card for new footie season and that's really all I would be interested in. if the process wasn't too complicated I would have a go at changing.

Cheers

1st you need to install the latest oscam for a linux pc , that can be found here ,

http://download.oscam.to/index.php

once installed the rest of the process would come into effect . as i do not have a pc server i do not know how to install oscam on a pc .

you will have to do some homework on that mate . not too hard by the sounds of things .

[leedsboy]

Thanks guli

will read a bit more and report back.

My experience with the ME is limited, but anyway...

I think that the easiest way to do that is saving the new traffic as a normal mission and then adding it to the campaign through the campaign.cfg file.

This is how Im doing it and it seems to work .
