You can download CCcam using the remote on the 4D images. You can only get the Vix menu on the Vix images. Give Vix a try, if you dont like it, go back to the 4D image or the other image teams.
Hi when i go into 4D images and try to download it tells me there are no download files press exit to exit:confused:,so where do you get Vix from to try that instead.:confused:
all ViX images can be downloaded from www.openvix.co.uk along with ViX compatible softcams.
Hi tryed downloading that and put it on a usb stick and transfare it to the TM 2T OE.Its not reading it on the usb stick as all the other downloads i tried.It only reads the enigma 2 plugin ccam from the stick but i dont know what that does if anything.Why is my box not recognising any of these programs?
I really need to start at the start with someone telling me the right download the right way step by step through the box settings?
download the CCcam .ipk file from www.openvix.co.uk
Place this file directly on to a USB stick and place that stick into the receiver while watching live TV, making sure you have no menu's open.
you will be asked if you want to install the file select yes.
once the file has been installed FTP into the receiver and copy your CCcam.cfg file to /etc/
then in the receiver press blue button, softcam manager, green button to start the cam, blue button to enable auto start.
Job done.
I went on to the site and i dont see any ccam ipk file.There is just a Tm 2T OE link and then its all just open vix download.Where do i find the CCam ilk file?Just woundering whats ftp on the receiver?:confused:
it's there listed under ViX-softcams.
Which one do i need to download if i have a MaxDigital XP1000 Single Tuner DVB-S2 HD Enigma2 Linux Satellite Receiver ??
Cccam 2.3.0 works perfectly well.
Ok, so once ive donwloaded that i ftp into into the TMP dir on the root of box?
Ok got that, so whats FTP and where do i find where i can copy it from ...to??

Sorry didnt realise id already posted about the FTP
Hi I cant find where that ccam ipk file is on my box to open it??:confused:
Hi so whats a FTP sorry for asking again i just dont seem to be getting anywhere with this.
You really should take your time & read more guides on the site.
FTP = file transfer protocol.
The box is running an ftp server, on your pc/mac you will run an ftp cient, google filezilla.
sorry im new to all this and using the forums did you get my last question,its not posted under our last conversation:confused:
Hi ok i still dont get all this i just need some help to explain how to access ccam on my technomate TM2TOE box with out confusing me with a load of tech speech.A clear step by step solution would be grateful.
the tutorial i linked to was written specifically for those new to enigma2 satellite receivers, i know this as i spent over a fortnight getting it just rite, read that through it will explain every thing you need in very clear and easy to follow steps.
Hi ,great so where can i find this tutorial sounds just what i need.
It's in the thread pheonix linked above for you.

Have you actually installed the Vix image to your receiver or are you still using the 4D image based on PLI 2.1?
Hi ok ive read the tutorial and followed it step by step and still when i press the blue button there is no soft cam menu to activate the ccam.Any ideas why this would be?:confused:
Menu> Information > About.
tell us what it says there.
Ok on information>about ive got "Micom Version 108 , Image:OPenpil 2.1 , Kernel Vision 3.1.1 , Lastest Upgrade May 11 2013 00:21.57 , Power by 4D.
Then your not on a OpenViX image so i really cant help as i dont use the 4D images.
please when asking for help always state exactly which image you are using otherwise we will assume you are using a ViX image and tailor our advice accordingly.
Ok so how can i use VIX image and install it to my box,maybe this would get it working for me?
are you serious?
how many times have you been pointed to guides & download server now?
The below tutorials should help you
Hi thanks ill read them and see how i get on,as i said im new to this and so far have tried everything you have said and it still doesn't seem to work so sorry if its a bit frustrating but it even more so for me.:confused:
Hi ok ive read your tutorials which all were a great help in getting to understand how all this works,as i said im a new be so i doing my best,anyway this is where im at now.I factory reset my box,i then put open Vix update on a flash disc and up dated my box.Then i followed your tutorial on FTP to the receiver using enigma2-cams ccam 2.2.1.Now when i go into the menu>setup>softcam management >Select softcam>CCam221>green button it just says Softcam setup... and nothing happens.So ive obviously done something wrong or forgot something.I would be grateful for a little more help.:)

Have you ftped you CCcam.cfg to /etc . This contains your boxkey for reading your card.
Does it show anything next to "Active:" at the top?
Have you enabled startup? If so, there will be a tick next to the Cam's name.
Hi well what i done is created a CCcam.cfg with notepad plus and copied that to the /etc folder.The thing that i dont get is that file is empty so how does it work.So i dont see Active in the soft cam menu, theres no options here to startup.It says Softcam setup.... and thats it.I must be missing something?Is there another CCcam.cfg file i can use?
no, all you need for a basic set-up is a blank file.
when you ftp to /usr/softcams/ can you see the cam there?
if so, right click & chmod to 755.
does it then show up in your softcam set-up?

Posted in error.
No i cant see them there.Ok in the FTP it tells me CCcam.cfg "file transfar successful" but that was sending it to /etc. I haven't sent anything to usr/ folder.Should i send something there too.
If the cam isn't in /usr/softcams/ you either haven't installed it or have installed a version for another image.
Grab the cam from http://openvix.co.uk & install the ipk file.
Ok i have usr/softcams and there is a CCcam.cfg file there.So thats good,so when i go to the receiver menu>setup>soft cam manager >select CCcam 2.2.1 nothing else happens.I cant activate CCcams.
after you placed the ipk in /tmp/ did you press Blue Button -> ViX -> Install Local Extension & pick the cam to install?
Yeah i have installed it through local Extension.I dont have ViX on my menu when i press the blue button though,I have software management>local extenion..maybe this the problem.

so after all that, you never flashed the image afterall :confused:
I doubt the cam you are trying to install now is putting it in the correct place so.
so with all this we have just gone around in one massive circle for the past 3 or 4 days.
as i said before if you want help state the image your using otherwise we will always assume that your using ViX and tailor our help accordingly.
Ok well i did try to install it the way you said and after reading the tutorials, i have learnt .again i am a new be ,ive tried to up date the box again with a flash disc with another OpenVix file but the box won't go into the booting mode where it prompts you to press the OK button.Ive used a different usb port but is still wont go into that mode.Do you know how i can get it to boot?
Format the USB stick again using this tool (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?45-USB-Format-Tool&p=78&viewfull=1#post78)
and try again. If that doesn't work, try another USB stick.
you may have to first update the bootloader, it's the exact same process as a image flash you can get the bootloader from here.
http://www.world-of-satellite.com/enigma2/openvix/index.php?dir=Bootloaders/
once you have flashed the bootloader, format the USB stick and try a image flash again.
Great Thanks Ill try that.
Hi ok i tryed to put the Bootloader on first but it won't flash to the box,so then i try to image flash the box and that went through the process and updated the box.Now when i power the box off / on again Openvix comes on the screen but thats it.The box won't start up,it just keeps on saying Booting..... Is this because i cant get the Bootloader on first ,and is the a sequence that all these Bootloader/images/updates etc have to go on the box?

There has only been one bootloader for the 2T, so you dont need to flash it.
Start afresh, format your USB stick, place image on it and flash again. Follow Sicilians' guide. Leave your USB stick in after reboot and make sure you press the EXIT button.
Dont worry about leaving the USB stick connected after flashing the first time. It won't flash again unless you press OK. YOu can remove it afterwards.
Hi,well fare play to you,thats done the trick,leaving the usb stick in after flashing and powering the box off/on and pressing the Exit botton repeatingly for about 10sec worked.Thats what was missing.I now have Vix images on my receiver and active CCcam working also.I know it was a slow road for me getting this far but alls good now.I'm sure i'll have a few fine tuning questions but thanks to everyone who put up with all my stupid questions over the last week as i learnt about this.Cheers....:):):D:D

Not quite.
we have had at least 3 or 4 different Bootloaders from TM that I can think of off the top of my head. The bootloader on the openvix website is the proper one for use with the ViX image. If you use a older bootloader it simply wont be able to read the fileformat on the usb stick needed to flash the receiver.
