Not exactly on the button there my man - a tuner has gone bang on me on more than one occasion.

have to say ive done a lot of work on dm500s in my time and have yet to have one that had a tuner fail , its not impossible it can happen but as I haven't heard of it happening a lot and never seen it personally . but having spoken to mojo the problem is not signal or cable related ,his box does nothing , it doesn't display menus nor can he access the box using dream control center , this atleast indicates that the image has failed (for want of a better term )in my experience a reflash more often than not can retrieve a dm500s .so my advice to mojo (before he buys a new box ) was to try a reflash , and ive recommended a different image to him , I hope that solves the problem for him .

Hi i have no problem with dream up.the router and dm 500s ip's are different but dcc constantly gives me same ips for dm 500,and router.when i change them they say not connected.That way i cannot see anything on dm side of ftp {blank}because of conflict.It
would not accept the static ip i have from the menu connection.

if all these channels just stopped opening and your using an n line then you need to contact your n line supplier mate . all premium channels working fine for me , and as you say premium and not all pay channels then I can only think that your now not receiving channels via the line that you should be , in which case that's a server issue .

the card is my own in my own server. worked fine for years. then made a few changes and missed an entitlement so had to call to get that done and now the card will only work for premium channels in $ky box but not on the server. The other scrambled channels gold,sky, etc all work fine from the server but not the premium. I have the boxkey entered and tried on a few different boxes using CCcam and then newcs and mgcamd and still the same result - no premium channels. I see someone else has a post on another site with thew same problems so I think $ky have been busy.....thanks for response but I think there is more to it than we know at the moment

you ay dreamup but i assume you mean dream control center (dcc) . do you have any part of a green line showing , I mean if all is well you have a green line connecting all 3 pictures computer /box /router , but some times you have a partial green line such as a green line between computer and router but not to the box .if you don't have a green line between all 3 (as you clearly don't ) and the box on the left is empty either the ip of the box is wrong in dcc or your password is incorrect . you need to into the box menu to communication setup , in there the first thing you should see is the box ip , check that the box ip is the same as whats displayed by dcc . if not its usually only the last digit/s that are different so you could manually change the last digit/s of the box ip in dcc to the proper box ip and then click on reconnect beneath the picture of the computer . all being well that should fix the problem but if not you need to next look at the password . usually by default the ftp username is root and password is dreambox , but with some images the password can be different , for example commando images password could be commando as opposed to dreambox . also backup copies of images can have passwords that people set them , so I mean that the password may not be the default password or the usuall default password .if you tell us the name of the image you have (or if its a backup image ) maybe we can advise more .

is your box a sky + hd box ? as they are definitely making changes with those .as they open in the sky box the card is working as it should be , so its either down to sky changing some thing or your cam , I suppose you could try oscam.

yes it is a sky+ hd box and the server is a dreambox 7020. watching on a dream 800 hd, 500 hd, 600 and another 7000 and all fine up to last night. I hope someone has a fix or idea.
I had a look at oscam but it doesn't look to easy to get around. if there is a link or 2 you might have would appreciate the help
thanks

oscam has a few oscam config files that you need to edit ,add /edit the following to your oscam configs .
Oscam config:
Code:
[global]
nice = -1
WaitForCards = 1
preferlocalcards = 1
saveinithistory = 1
[webif]
httpport = 8888
httpuser = admin
httppwd = admin
httpallowed = 192.168.1.100
[newcamd]
key = 0102030405060708091011121314
port = 10000@0963:000000;10001@0963:000000
(you can set protocol above to cccam if your clients are using cccam , that way they can keep their current c lines , all you would then need is to add the user name and password of each c line you give out to oscam.user via oscam.user accounts . each client must have their own user account .
Oscam server:
Code:
[reader]
label = skyuk
protocol = internal
device = /dev/sci0
blockemm-u = 0
blockemm-s = 0
blockemm-g = 1
blockemm-unknown = 1
emmcache = 1,3,2
group = 1
caid = 0963
ecmwhitelist = 0963@000000:3E,4E,7D,7E,45,47,62,68,72
Oscam user:
Code:
[account]
user = test1
pwd = test2
group = 1
au = skyuk
this bit below is for your clients or client boxes , its a user account .all you need is a user name and password , that would be the user name and password in the clients line . you need a user account for each line you give out , so just copy and paste the account below to the oscam.user file for each line you give .
Oscam user:
Code:
[account]
user = test1
pwd = test2
group = 1
au = skyuk

I appreciate that and will have a go at it tomorrow morning. it's a Netflix nite now. Is there any particular oscam I should use - I've seen a few out there and confused the hell out of me with mipsel, pcc and can't even remember what else. I woulk like a package download but can't find anything that looks even half easy. I would run the server off a dremabox - what goes in the bin folder and where are the config file located ? I am really a learner for oscam - if you can help fine and thanks for your responses

its easier if you can install via addons , how did you install your other cams ? if you installed via the addons then oscam should be in there aswell . if you installed manually well then its the same as what you did previously . for enigma 2 put the mipsel file into the tmp folder and then go to manual install panel , for enigma 1 put the ppc file into the same place . if its an ipk file then again put the file into the same folder and go to addons and then to ipk install panel .

Thanks piopat,I finally got the problem solved,i got green lines from pc to dm 500 and router,the problem --i was using the wrong cable,and that was seeing tne dm500 as another router,when i changed a number of cables the correct one picked up the dm,and the yellow folders appeared!i am now beginning to see pictures,guess others should have an idea of which cable to use with which dm tool.Thanks for the help,God bless.

Well I downloaded and got oscam working on the server but it only does what newcs does so nice try but 'no cigar'
I appreciate the help - thanks again - I'm sure we will see a lot more of this soon and hopefully a fix in the near future.

not likely. you may not be aware but sly have shut down certain sky boxes. please specify your make and model. no configuration will change your results. it is done and dusted. strange that you are not aware of this. the game is not over but it is on its last legs. I have a Thompson which is the last box yet to be sorted but its only a matter of time. yours is likely a Samsung or pace which are already compromised

just so people get an understanding of exactly where things stand. probably the most significant player in the game over the last decade was b16mcc. he setup www.linuxboxuk.com. now dead in the water. he knows cccam, he knows oscam, but he can't share as his sly system is done. the game is done guys. it has been our friends in oz to be hit first, next is boxtype by boxtype our friends in the UK and then the Irish market. just make sure you have tsmedia on your platform, skybox, openbox, blade are all an utter waste of space as they have no worthwhile plugin. the ariva ain't much better
