How to Install CCcam/MGCamd & other softcam's on ALL ViX supported Enigma 2 Receivers



In this example im going to show how to Install CCcam 2.2.1 on the ViX Image
You need access to FTP and CCcam 2.2.1 (or whichever version you prefer) ipk file and your CCcam.cfg file (your details go in here)

I use FlashFXP (Filezilla is a great free one too) and below is how I have configured mine, you will need to do the same for yours

You need your boxs IP Address/Host Name, Username and Pass in order to connect to your box

8393

As you can see my IP Address/Host Name is xxxxx.dyndns.org or i could have entered 192.168.x.12
my username is root (that is default)
my password is xxxxxxxxx (default password is blank or password or dreambox)

once you have saved and connected to the box you should get access to the root of your box and should look like the right hand window of the below screenshot

8394

Download your Cam from HERE (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/enigma2/openvix/index.php?dir=ViX-Softcams/) or mirror below.


http://www.4shared.com/dir/wnyHV50A/VIX_CAMS.html

Im after CCcam 2.2.1 which is enigma2-plugin-cams-cccam.2.2.1_1.0-r0_mipsel
Once downloaded you need to transfer the enigma2-plugin-cams-cccam.2.2.1_1.0-r0_mipsel.ipk file into the /tmp folder on the box like below

8397

Then transfer your CCcam.cfg file into the /etc/ folder

8396

now go to your box and press Menu > Setup > VIX or Blue Button > Install Local Extension and you should have enigma2-plugin-cams-cccam.2.2.1_1.0-r0_mipsel.ipk file in there

8402

Press "Green" button to install and once completed it will ask for a "Gui Restart". Press OK and wait for box to come back on
Once the box is on press Menu/Setup/Softcam / CI/Softcam Manager and in there if you have done everything correctly you should see CCcam 2.2.1

8403

Press "Green" to start CCcam 2.2.1 and it should now be active like below

8404

Finally Press "Blue" to enable Auto Start and you are now ready and setup with CCcam 2.2.1

8405

Hope you guys find this tutorial helpful any questions dont hesitate to ask in here

binary files are the .bin files.
if you installed the cam from the 4shared ipk files you should not need to worry about that as it should already be in the correct place.

Do you have to keep activating it via the softcam manager? Also do you have to keep placing a copy of CCcam.cfg in /etc/ everytime it turns off?

A c Line in the CCcam.cfg suggests card sharing and that is a no no here
FYI use crimson editor for making the files as its unix compatible

This tutorial was done in vix 2.2. did you get the cam file show up in the IPK installer?

ESM
11-06-11, 21:30
yes, from there the install, ok when asked and nothing in the end. Mgcamd did it in one time. And the cccam came also from the website stated here.

EDIT: After the mgcamd file the install of cccam also worked. Beats me.

It doesnt make any difference, and don't know why there are two. I have used both and it worked fine.

I today did another Vu of a neighbour and there the same problem with the cccam 2.2.1 file that is on the server: it installs but does not turn up in the softcam section. First I had to install again another cam but then still no 2.2.1, he now has 2.1.4 because that one did turn up. I find it all kind of strange.

13-06-11, 15:23
im so suprised this is happening as loads of use cccam 2.2.1 file from the link in this post over and over again, I must have used it about 20 times lol and has never failed me once. I use Firefox 5 as my browser and flashfxp as my ftp and has never failed me once

13-06-11, 17:55
try another browser, maybe the ipk is gettin corrupt during download ... i know its a long shot but i guess there not much else you can try but give it a go, use a different browser, download the file and transfer and install again see if that makes any difference

Does anyone else have the same problem as me with Mgcamd not restarting after standby? I also after restart it if I watch a FTA channel for a long period of time and then switch to a paid channel. It's doing my head in CCCam works fine but this Mgcamd doesn't.

I'm using Mgcamd 1.35a and is working fine apart from the restart issue...can anyone help?

I am totally new to all this, but have been forced to reinstall VIX on my ET9000.
The setup use MGcamd and I have updated the image to 2.2 and successfully innstalled enigma2-plugin-cams-mgcamd.1.35a_1.0-r3_mipsel.ipk
I am also using my old newcamd.list in the right folder.

The problem is that I don't have a MG_cfg file to use!

Please advise how to get one, either where to download it or make one.
If I need to make one, I would be glad for an easy step-by-step guide:)

Yes it does, its blue button>VIX>install local extension. The IPK needs to be put into the tmp folder first

I've had my Duo since January and always looked at this CCcam business as way too complicated so
accepted the limitations of my Sly HD box.
When I saw this I thought I'd finally read up and give it a go. Took me about 20 minutes and I can now
actually use the Duo for what I bought it for. I can't smile wide enough at the moment.
Many thanks for this info :thumbsup:

Did you reboot the box after installing the CCcam, had a similar issue this afternoon and had to reboot box twice and I could autostart the cam afterwards.

That sounds like an error with filezilla so need to check your username etc to make sure its correct.
As for CCcam, if there is no config file it will not start up or autostart. Need to sort out FTP of the CFG file and than test autostart.

I have created CFG file from notepad. Do I need to write something on CFG File... I have no clue on this mate...

This works for coming out of standby and after a full restart but if you restart the GUI it fails :(

Does anyone know where the cam startup script is located on the ET5000/ET9000?

Rimmel
18-09-11, 18:41
what script you on about if /usr/share is not avasilable then there is no script available either

I think he's on about something like this:

How to - Oscam + Mgcamd1.35a start/stop cam script . Enigma 2
How to - Oscam + Mgcamd1.35a start/stop cam script . Enigma 2

This is a simple script for those enigma 2 images without cam + cardserver options in the softcam menu from blue button. You can still start/stop etc from blue button by simply modifying your existing script on your receiver. The scripts in enigma 2 on most images are in /usr/camscript. You can simply use your favourite editor to amend the scripts already contained on the box.

This script will start oscam first and then add a 15 second delay until starting mgcamd which allows oscam to take control of the internal readers.

The other benefit is that it enables you to install your own compiled oscam for your sat receiver and you dont have to rely on addon panels etc which contain old or buggy oscam versions.







#!/bin/sh
remove_tmp () {
rm -rf /tmp/ecm.info /tmp/pid.info /tmp/cardinfo
}
case "$1" in
start)
remove_tmp
/var/bin/oscam &
sleep 15
/var/bin/mgcamd_1.35a &
;;
stop)
touch /tmp/mgcamd_1.35a.kill
sleep 5
killall -9 mgcamd_1.35a oscam 2>/dev/null
sleep 2
remove_tmp
;;
*)
$0 stop
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0



Not my work - taken from another site. But basically I think he wants to change the cam startup script (I do too)

Hello People!!

I hope you are all well?

I am totally new .... Brand New and errrrr looking for help or should I say "HELP"....I think they wrote all the Dummy books to help me (least it seems that way).

Hopefully an easy answer to my question below.

First - World of Satellite - Absolutely brilliant! good advice and would recommend to Friends and Family.

I am stuck at the first hurdle - looking at the VIX ccam's list to download ....which one do I download? Is it always the latest one or are they all for different VU+ boxes and I need to find what one I would need for mine? I have a VU+Solo ....

Thank you in advance....

Good evening!
Just loaded vix 2.2 onto my brand new Xtrend ET 5000, and everything´s been peachy except for the mgcamd not working.
It installed right away, and it starts up just fine when rebooted, but I don´t get a picture.
I know with certainty, that my newcamd.list is accurate, so that leaves the mg_cfg.
I´d be ever so grateful, if anyone that got mgcamd working on the Xtrend ould like to share their mg_cfg.

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

Need a hand with this.

Got a Vu+ Solo working very well with CCcam 2.2.1 using the files from this thread. However, I have been recommended by payserver to try Mgcamd for better performance, so I downloaded 1.35a (from page 1 of this thread again) and installed as usual. Put config files [mgcamd config.zip] downloaded from http://www.filecrop.com/mgcamd-config.html in /usr/keys, input server information and changed box type from 00 to 06.

But it doesn't work. Same payserver works fine with CCcam so I can't understand where I'm going wrong?

Many thanks for your help

Solved this problem using Mgcamd 1.38 from: http://linuxsat-support.com/mgcamd-files/8085-mgcamd-1-38-a-2.html#post34305

I would recommend these files are added to page 1 of this thread! No need to change box type either, they've fixed this in 1.38.

Hi,

I am trying to get CCcam 2.3.0 from 4shared but it doesn't work. I tried several times but it's really slow and it stops after a little while ( it's still there at 15% after 30 mins) or it stops before it gets to 100%. I tried the torrent file but it doesn't seem to work at all.

Is there another site from where I can download it?

I tried it too and this time it worked at the first try. Maybe there was a kink in the 'tubes somewhere (for two days?).

Thanks,

All seems to have worked........except i can only see free to air channels...bbc etc..all encrypted channels like sky 1 just go black screen?
The box shows that sky 1 is on and what is currently showing and how much has elapsed but just not on tv screen

Any ideas??

Hi
I have now fixed it........There must have been a problem with my original CCam.cfg file
I re-wrote the cfg file and re put it in the ETC folder
Rebooted the Ultimo
And works a treat now :)

A note to all readers of this......the guide works perfect.....its only my own inability that made it difficult!

Thank you all for your expertise and quick replys

Most appreciated

Hi Punisher

Thats for tut on installing cccam on vix images, im a noob so please bear with me
im running the latest vix image v4.2.4

i got to this point and got lost, i cant see the following :-
Press OK and wait for box to come back on
Once the box is on press Menu/Setup/Softcam / CI/Softcam Manager and in there if you have done everything correctly you should see CCcam 2.2.1

My meaning is i cant find "Menu/Setup/Softcam /CI/Softcam Manager" ?? in your pics shows green settee ??
but working past that i have cccam 2.3.0 shown on title bar but nothing is opening
i know i have a valid cccam.cfg in /etc folder
where does cccam program reside in which folder is it etc as above ??


thanks in advance

CS is not allowed here. You must be talking about your own card. The config file that contains your card details must be named CCcam.cfg and not cccam.cfg.

For Softcam Manager, On the remote, press blue and then scroll to Softcam Manager. I suspect you have been there already.

At the top, it should say "Active:" Next to this it will list active emulators. If blank, there is no running emulator.

Pay attention to the text next to the buttons at the bottom of the screen.
Green = If it says Stop, it is running. i.e receiver is asking you to press button to stop. If it says Start, it is not running. Press button to start
Blue= If it says Disable Startup, it is set to start automatically, there will also be a tick next to the emulator name. Receiver is asking you to press Blue to disable startup. If it says "enable startup", press to blue enable startup.

Hi all,

Now feeling like I should try some other cams. I have been reading around and MGcamd seems recommended. Now I have a few questions about this which I'm hoping people will be kind enough to answer.

1) can I install MGcamd alongside the cccam that I currently use?
2) As I run my sly card off cccam can I set up so MGcamd uses the cccam setup for this? (If so how do I go abut doing it)

The other thing that has been mentioned to me is this OScam. Is this worth installing and again can it run alongside my cccam?

this is the file I ftped 'enigma2-plugin-cams-cccam.2.2_1.0-r0_mipsel.ipk' so it has .ipk extension so it has to be unzipped.

Just for further infomation. this is a new box and the first item I am installing follwing the Vix installation.

If it is .ipk then it is already unzipped :)

If you put the .ipk on a USB stick it should popup on the screen when you plug it in :cool:

Just will explain why i went to oscam cause i've been hearing of a backdoor in cccam 2.1.3 and thats why went to oscam and ass a saf backup cccam still installed with all thE lines to HOMESHARE with 2 other boxes in home.
But evrytime i flash a imag i'm losing all my config's but i have them on my pc.
Is it right that i hve to make my own cfg's when i flash vix image?
Should be a bad thing thing for me cause takes quite some time to get evrything back running again?
Is there anyway to put in the cam's and just put back my cfg's to oscam and cccam?
In a easy way?

Hi Guys, New at this but seem to have made strides thanks to this forum.

I have a Technomate Tm-T2 and have chosen to use oscam-7969+cccam-213-vix_oe2_all.ipk as my reciever is using VIX however i need to make a .cfg file and FTP it over to the reciever. I have notepad open but what do I have to put in the notepad before saving it as a .cfg?

People keep saying write what you want? Which doesnt quite compute with me?

Please help

Hi there just a quick one. Is there a reason why sometimes when I install the IPK the CCcam binary goes into /usr/bin/ rather than /usr/softcam/ ?

I have to manually move it after install for it to work correctly.

ViX cams can be found on http://openvix.co.uk, was it one of these?

How can I configure to start oscam 1st, wait 10 seconds and then start cccam ? Otherwise, cccam hijacks the card oscam is supposed to read ...

Just found out that the order in which the cams are selected to enable startup do have an influence on this.
As a result, it works ;)

Which exact image are you using as the ViX image is almost identical among all the supported receivers with a small exception where hardware differences may come into play. also it's worth pointing out that this tutorial was made a very long time ago and much has changed in the image since then, but the basics still remain the same for installing and setting up cams etc.

ViX images on all supported boxes work pretty much the same way.

I'm having a weird issue when installing my mgcamd. I have uploaded my config but when restarting the cam(enigma2-plugin-cams-mgcamd.1.35a_1.0-r3_mipsel) my VIX installation(openvix-3.0.632-vusolo_usb) says it will not start because i have to put my config in /var/keys. Well, if it werent for linux-shortcuts thats where i put it. But i see the patch to the config is now /usr/keys.

What can be done?

abu baniaz
22-03-13, 12:44
/var/keys is a symbolic link to /usr/keys. If you go to /var/keys you will be directed to /usr/keys

Are you sure that your files are correctly named? mg_cfg and newcamd.list?

randyboy
22-03-13, 12:48
Oh, i can see now i prolly havent done this 100% when youreply to me. The mg_cfg i dont have at all... Where to get it and does that go in /etc/?

But i got newcamd.list correct tho... But if the mg_cfg is vital that might be the reason :)

22-03-13, 12:52

Hi and many thanks for your tutorial !!!

I have a question concerning the cccam.cfg. After i installed the cccam i clicked for it to start i got a message saying no cccam config file found (or something like that). So i downloaded the cccam.cfg from my old box onto my mac and then uploaded it to the var/ect/ folder. I also edited text where the cam version is written as the cam that i installed on the ned box was different . Is this all OK or will it not work to its best like this (glitching of freezing )???

Many thanks !
