small problem with newcs & newcamd

[breakdaice]

Hey gurus!

Does newcamd 6.1 client support S** UK card shared via newcs? I got it working with WinCSC on SkyStar1. Although I had to change caid from 0961 to 0960 for it to work...

I have a problem with s** uk card... Everything set up on both server and client side but when trying to connect from client I get this in the logs:

[ 13:11:40 ] [ SockSrv ] new connection from xx.xx.xx.xx on socket 8

[ 13:11:40 ] [ UserMan ] [Handle 8] Removed Userspace
[ 13:11:40 ] [Newcamd:11000] user test logout

Any ideas? Client side is newcamd 6.1 and CWS is correctly configured...

newcamd 6 won't allow certain CA systems to be used over a network socket.
If you want to use a Premiere or Sky card with newcamd 6, you have to run betad on the same box as newcamd and then they will communicate via a unix domain (local) socket.

Just use mgcamd or evocamd as they don't have this restriction.

Hey!

S** UK uses two caid's for operation: 0960 and 0961
Is it possible that my card has support only for 0960 and not 0961?
I got newcs working with that card only with WinCSC when I changed the caid there from 0961 to 0960. Is there anything I could do with dreambox and newcamd 6.1 betad to get it all working?

I haven't tried betad and newcamd 6.01, but that configuration should be easy to get working (famous last words!). With betad, you need to ensure that the BOXID is set correctly in the betad config file (the betad debug should tell you if it doesn't match the card).

If you have newcs working with WinCSC, it should also work with newcamd 5.28, evocamd and mgcamd. You might have to comment-out the <sid> section in the newcs config file to allow everything through to the card.

There has to be a way for newcamd to read the boxid number of your card it does this through betad.cfg which in turn requires betad.ppc

betad cannot share and you will get nowhere using betad I can't speak for mgcamd or evocamd as I have not used them nor can i speak for newcs.

if you can insert the boxid of your sky card in newcs then I guess it might work otherwise you will need patched carserver0961 with newcamd5.28

you will need to rename cardserver0961 to whatever image you are using for example on gemini rename to just cardserver on hydra rename to cardserver.dream ect ect

don't give up keep trying eventually you will succeeed though it might take some time

one tip though don't expect the picture to kick in straight away!

Hey!

I've got one DM500 with a dead tuner running as a CS server (newcs) and I've managed to clear the picture now with WinCSC. The only weird thing is that I had to change default S** UK caid 0961 to 0960 for it to work. Now I'm trying to get my DM7020 (Newcamd 6.1 Betad) connected to that very same server but with not much luck. So far I've got the correct CWS = line in my newcamd.conf and I do actually see DM7020 connecting to newcs but it all fails with:

[ 17:38:51 ] [ SockSrv ] new connection from 192.168.0.11 on socket 8

[ 17:38:52 ] [Newcamd:11000] user ice logout

When I check from DM7020 channel information I see that two caid's 0961 and 0960 are in use. I managed to get WinCSC working by changing caid from 0961 to 0960. Is there any way I could do that same thing on DM7020?

EDIT: Got it working! Got MGCamd 28.08.05 + a bit of tweaking in /var/keys/mg_cfg (correct CWS rows in /var/tuxbox/config/newcamd.conf) and S*Y UK is clearing nicely... Is there any way I could have achieved this with newcamd_6.1_betad or is the newcamd locked down and not clearing S*Y UK/IT?

[cs91044]

newcamd6.1 will clear sky no problem but it needs the betad.cfg populated with the boxid

because it uses betad.ppc it grabs the serial port which is specified in betad.cfg then no other system can use that port therefore it has been designed specifically not to share full stop

no go necamd6.1 and sky sharing
