Some services show no picture or sound issues

[victoriahenri]

Hi there,

I have an issue with some channels on my box. No picture or sound EPG populate alright. Signal is good no problem there, all info for the satellite are shown but there is nothing on the TV. I have checked my card on the old sly box no problem whatsoever for any channel...

Done several scan and ABM, nothing. I am at a loss...

OpenVIX ver is 4

Pls HELP!

Depends on the channels you are trying to view and wether they are hardware paired to the original sky receiver and card. These channels for example most HD sports and movie channels simply can't at present be viewed with any third party receiver unless using something like a monsoon media vulkano box to stream them directly from the sky box.

[victoriahenri]

Thanks for the answer Larry-G, :) the problem doesn't relate to HD channels or at least not only. I was until a few weeks able to watch all my subscriptions channels Movies and Sport…

There is something:

I go to the first movie channel and present OK twice to get to the extended EPG details in the left hand corner there are a number of letters: NDS B I S V NCW CO BI DC
Next to it there is a mention of the way the channel is 'delivered' for BBC1 HD and SD it say Free to Air, All the characters are white. For the Premier Movie channel NDS is kind of greyed out and there are no mention of the delivery mode, This goes on for all the Movie channels and now all of the sports ones, last week I had a few they have now all gone. Yet on TCM+1 (not TCM) I have the following information in the delivery mode section (I apologize if this is an infringement of the forum rules, I am not sure) :
Server: /Dev/sc1
Protocol: Hops:0 Ecm: 0.092
Also the NDS is highlighted in green and the program is showing on the channel (currently Rawhide with a very young Clint Eastwood)
So for some channels it works, I am :confused:

Thanks for any input,
H.

Do you have a Sky card inserted in your satellite receiver.

Yet on TCM+1 (not TCM) I have the following information in the delivery mode section (I apologize if this is an infringement of the forum rules, I am not sure) :

That's your local card being used.
The fact it'snot working for other channels still suggests an entitlement issue.

[victoriahenri]

Thanks judge by entitlement issue you mean my subscription to some channels aren't you? I have an old white sky card that I have been using for a few years now, my subscription is for a Sky World package (methinks) no paying HD just the free ones but all the Sky SD channels and a few more…

I think it has to do with either oscam or cccam are setup, I am really :mad: with these softcams it is a pain in the neck to find simple concise answer for the sky enigma2 settings/files :roll eyes:

Just found that in the CCcam info > entitlement it say entitlement 18?! There are also some errors in the oscam log but I am tempted to turn oscam off and just use CCcam, also my CCam.cfg mentions several files:

CHANNELINFO FILE : /var/etc/CCcam.channelinfo
PROVIDERINFO FILE : /var/etc/CCcam.providers
CAID PRIO FILE : /var/etc/CCcam.prio

None of these are located in etc/

[Huevos]

Should just be able to use CCcam with CCcam.cfg.


BOXKEY: /dev/sci0 XX XX XX XX
SMARTCARD CLOCK FREQUENCY: /dev/sci0 3570000

Just make sure box key is correct for your card. For the rest just use the standard CCcam.cfg.

[victoriahenri]

Ok I'll try to flash the box tomorrow and start from scratch with just a simple CCcam.cfg:roll eyes:
nightynight

[victoriahenri]

Box Flashed a new this morning openvix 4.2 latest version, cccam installed from the feed, cccam.cfg at its barest…

Lost all entitlements, although they are listed in the cccam info with nodeID etc…

Same thing with the movie channels:
TCM+1 shows
Server /dev/sci1
Protocol:sci Hops:0 ecm:0.093

But Sky Movies Premier or Sky Sports 1 NDS is greyed out.

Yet the card works fine on the old skydigibox...

[victoriahenri]

Nothing new this morning, I managed to watch Man U Vs Arsenal on the old DigiBox and record Strictly on the et10k but this is still not working. I have run software update and applied the latest available upgrade, now running:

Anybody can derive some indications as to what is going on?

[Huevos]

Have you got the correct boxkey?

[victoriahenri]

It's the same as I have used a long time, it used to work.

[victoriahenri]

However some Sports channels have reappeared:confused:but most have not I am at a loss.

I have turned the debug option in CCcam but don't see any log file anywhere.

I am suspecting the et10K is playing up, the card works fine in the digibox is there anyway to test the ability of the box reading the card?

[victoriahenri]

Anybody can put some meaning to my entitlements ? Why are not all the channels listed?

[judge]

That all looks pretty normal.

[chris16v]

isn't this an example of the recent issues many have seen with their white cards paired to a HD box? i know he says its paired with a SD box but i`m sure victoriahenri would benefit from dumping CCcam and going oscam?

[victoriahenri]

@chris16v I'd like to but I can't get the bloody thing (oscam) to work.:mad: I confirm the box is a SD Grundig SkyDigiBox.

I suspect they have done something that pairs the card to any box. Is there anyway to undo the pairing or change it?

@judge:) from what you see in my entitlements can you say I have the full package (Movies, Sports, Music, Kids, etc…) for bskyb?

[judge]

@judge:) from what you see in my entitlements can you say I have the full package (Movies, Sports, Music, Kids, etc…) for bskyb?

Looks like it. A card that has expired but still active usually has about 9 entitlements.
A card with the Entertainment package usually has about 11.
Yours has more, so I presume they cover the extra packages.

[victoriahenri]

Do you guys know of anybody with a working oscam on ET10K Vix E2 4.4.020 for bskyb 28.2E?

[victoriahenri]

OK I have managed to install Oscam and get the web if to work, I even have some channels back. No Sky Movies, No Sky Sports (Sky sports HQ works), all the documentaries and entertainments.

I have posted my log here (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?54441-What-is-a-basic-OSCam-config-for-a-legit-card)
