Looks to me like the smiley may be in the wrong place LOL

Can't see a problem, have you tried starting the emu via telnet ?

Hello everyone.

@lorum

Instead of using cccamd.list to connect to a CCcam server with a 'C' line try using newcamd.list and connect to CCcam with an 'N' line. A typical (full) newcamd.list would look like the following:

#newcamd.list
#
DEMUX_API = 2
BOX_TYPE = DM7020
CONTROL_WORD_DEVICE = CA
CA_API = 3
GTX_OUTPUT_MODE = 16

EMU = yes
PREFER_EMU = yes
DISABLE_CAM = no
CAM_CASYS = 17
AU = yes
SHOW_ALL_CA_SYSTEMS = no
OSD = none
OSD_WEB_LOGIN = username:password
CA_INFO_FILE = /tmp/cainfo.txt

I could never get a 'C' line to work in cccam.list but an 'N' line in newcamd.list always did. I'm not sure if this was related to the CCcam version or not but as 'N' was working I didn't bother invetigating any further.
The only way to tell if mgcamd is working or not is to telet to your receiver and start mgcamd from the command prompt. Once you have logged in to your receiver issue the following command to get to the directory mgcamd is in: cd /usr/bin
Once in that directory then just type mgcamd at the command prompt and observe the output on the screen which will show if there is a fault or not.


Regards to all.
