Softcam install on Vu+Solo 2

[RottyDave]

Spent most of last night attemting to install a softcam to read my sky subscription card.

Following the instructions in this link http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...ghlight=boxkey
I used Filezilla to transfer the file below and created a ccCam file containing my hex box key which i also transferred.

enigma2-plugin-cams-cccam.2.3.0_1.0_mipsel.ipk

When i accessed my Softcam manager there was no softcam installed.I tried several times and gave up several hours.
I can see the files being transferred on Filezilla but have no idea what has happened to them.All my fta channels and epg are fine.
Anyone out there had similar problems and resolved it?

Cheers guys :confused:

Transfer enigma2-plugin-cams-cccam.2.3.0_1.0_mipsel.ipk to /tmp/
Blue button -> ViX -> Install local extension

Copy Cccam.cfg to /etc/
Blue button -> Softcam manager, yellow to start the cam & blue to enable it on start-up.

What is the exact name of your config file?

[abu baniaz]

Config must be named CCcam.cfg

[RottyDave]

Hi,
My config file is identical to the format below only 12 34 AB CD is replaced with my box number in hexadecimal.

BOXKEY: /dev/sci0 12 34 AB CD
SMARTCARD CLOCK FREQUENCY: /dev/sci0 3570000

Hope this can shed some light on the issue?

[RottyDave]

I dont think i left a space between the each set of 2 box key digits-do you think this would make a difference as i have just re-read the instructions and it states note the spaces?

[abu baniaz]

I was asking about name of the config file, not contents.

Both names given in posts 1 & 2 are incorrect. Linux s case sensitive.

[RottyDave]

I am pretty sure i named it Cccam.cfg if thats what you mean but will be able to check in next half hour or so-Is that what you meant?

[abu baniaz]

Yes, that is what I meant. If that is the name you gave it, it is wrong.

[chucknorris666]

As said above it must be CCcam.cfg

[RottyDave]

I see,just going to try now

[RottyDave]

Have just transferred the files,The ipk file over to tmp folder of the Vu box and thecfg file over to the etc folder.
Have entered into the softcam manager mrnue and again there is nothing there.
Should i try another cam?

You don't go into the softcam menu yet!,
You need to install the cccam ipk.

Do this by going in to vix menu, then install local extension.

Then you can go in softcam manager.

Have flashed the ipk file over but cant seem to do the same with the cfg file

Ftp in to your receiver, check the following:

In /usr/softcams/ you have CCcam.x.x.x where the x represents version numbers
in /etc/ you have CCcam.cfg

The config file is transferred by ftp.
The binary (program) is done by ftping ipk to /tmp/ and then installing as per few posts back.
