N: on Mgcamd help needed

[Satcat]

I've got mgcamd 1.38 installed, made a "mg_cfg" file (see settings below), made a file called "newcamd.list" (starting with CWS = ), put them both in var/keys, stopped cccam, started mgcamd, but it doesn't work. Any ideas please?
I'm on Vix apollo 024.

ViX needs these files in /usr/keys/

Added note: make sure that your cccam autostart is turned off.

use
mgcamd_135a

with this

M: { 01 }
C: { 01 }
A: { 02 }
U: { 01 }
T: { 00 }
G: { 01 }
N: { 07 }
K: { 05 }
Q: { 600 }
P: { 02 }
O: { 00 }
S: { 03 }
L: { 00 }
E: { 15 }
H: { 07 }
R: { 00 }
D: { 00 }
B: { 06 }
F: { 00 }

[Satcat]

Thanks Burnham. I change that.
ozzsurf. Are you saying it won't work with 1.38?

[ozzsurf]

i tried 1.38 it did not work
i tried 135a it works

135a works on both solo2 which i now use
and on dm800 which i sold

[Satcat]

Tried 1.35a, but no luck. I must be doing something wrong. Any ideas anyone?

on 1.38 in the cfg file change G: { 01 } to G: { 33 } ,,,,see if it helps

I've tried that,(even 32) thanks.

If you're using a N line you need to put it in - newcamd.list
If you're using a C line you need to put it in - cccamd.list

In your mg_cfg file - you need to tell what cam protocol to use:

G: { 01 } - use this if you're using newcamd
G: { 32 } - use this if you'r using cccamd

Also tell it what box you're using:

# box type
# 00 autodetect, change only if you think wrong type detected.
# 01 dbox2
# 02 dreambox
# 03 triple-dragon
# 04 relook
# 05 openbox
# 06 dreambox/mips
# 08 stapi/kathrein
# 09 stapi/ipbox
# 11 stapi/openbox
B: { 06 }

For example - this cam doesn't work for me using the latest blackhole on my vu+ duo2 if I choose atodetect {00} - but it does work when I tell it my box is mips based {06}.

I hope that helps - and I have tested both 1.35 and 1.38c and they both work fine.

[Satcat]

Thanks. I've tried all that but still no success.

Can someone please have a look a my files and see if ther is something obvious that i@ve done wrong. Thanks.

[mrdude]

At the end of your N line you need to add this after the 14 - a space then - lan server1

eg.
14 lan server1

If you add another line it becomes:

14 lan server2

and so on.....

I didn't look at your mg_cfg - because - until you sort your N line out - it's not going to work.

[stevethejack]

You can put the N line of code into the config file of cccam - no need to run mgcamd

[Satcat]

Thanks mrdude, but still no joy.

Yea steve. That's what I am doing at the moment without any problems.
I'm new to linux and just playing around and trying to learn what I can and can't do.

You do know that Linux boxes are case sensitive and that you need to usually use a Linux base editor for editing files as windows/notepad does not write in the correct format - I only say this because you are new to Linux.

Please PM me - and send me your line - I'll send you the proper formatted files for mgcamd- don't worry I'll not use your line as I a good few of my own already :-)....

Dude, he's sorted now - he had a bad config file.

[Satcat]

Yes, I'm up and running now.
Thanks to everyone for their help.
Special thanks to mrdude for his help and patience with me.
