Oscam For Openvix Guide.

gmangt4 said:
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 http://www.techkings.org/general-cable-tv/95494-oscam-atv.html


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


I hope this helps,


Cheers

hi

can you tell me where the best place is to get the oscam r9620 r18 for open vix as the plugin download are not supported for zgemma h2 any more..

thanks
 
right installed the latest oscam 11381 on to my box added the files converted my line restarted box but nothing channels will not clear..
 
well fantastic walkthrough gmangt4 I've been trying this now over the last few weeks and failed up to today and all because of 1 thing I was doing wrong the downloaded file I sent it to desktop and then dragging the zipped file to the tuxbox folder instead of unzipped so take note anyone who have made same mistake
 
GmanGT4 first of all would like to say great article. but i have a problem i have followed your guide and i am at the stage where it says i am connected on the premium channels but dont have any showing.
i am setting up an Amiko Alien 8900 running Enigma 2.
Really scratching my head with this one.

I can't quite remember the Amiko setup as was so long ago I had one, but generally if oscam showing the lines connected and receiving the proper ecm's but still black screen it can mean another cam like cccam is running in the background somewhere. I also think I had to use a modded version of oscam on my amiko but could have changed in the meantime.
 
I'm not that sure on your software, had a zgemma recently with similar issue and no other cam installed showing installed on softcam panel....but one had been installed using tspanel and I didn't know until found it and switched it off and then restarted oscam.....does the status show lines connected? What does the live log say? I seem to remember something like oscam SH4 or something like that had to be used?

it says trying to descramble/restarting decoding requests. status shows connected. the box has oscam SH4
 
Might just be a typo on your line entry into the readers in oscam.server
Double check them or get someone on here to check them for you
What does it say for line status at right hand side of screen on oscam status page? Unknown or connected?

it is connected. just had a thought and tried it on a premium channel but non HD and it is working.
 
Good your working
Unfortunately most of the hd ones don't clear on sat and some joined them recently :(
 
Iv got this up and running both sat and virmin but just one problem I can't figure out I'm watching itv+1 and the sound keeps cutting out every 4/5 mins for around 4/5 minutes and come back on. Would this be a problem with my oscam setup the wife is doing my head in over it.
