Oscam setup Guide

[dundeepeh]

This is for vix,


I've attached a zipped config folder for oscam, install oscam ( I recommend r9620 r18 ) on your box via the plugins, softcams option but the latest will be fine


Unzip the file attached to somewhere easy to remember/access ( I use desktop )


Then using Filezilla or your FTP program of choice, connect to your box and navigate to the ETC folder, then find Tuxbox folder, drag the whole unzipped config folder to the tuxbox folder. Overwrite if prompted.


Once thats done go to your box and bring up softcam manager, I use blue button then softcam manager
Untick and stop any cams ticked to autostart and tick oscam to autostart, MAKE SURE YOU STOP ALL RUNNING CAMS, now highlight oscam and select restart/start, it should restart without error if applied ok. It must be restarted to allow access to the webinterface.


When oscam is restarted after applying the config file go to computer and enter your box ip address into the browser bar followed by :9000 that's full colon not semi, so something like 192.168.0.3:9000
press enter or go whatever your browser needs to go to the address.


Oscam web interface should appear.. if it don't appear try rebooting your box..and try again..make sure ip address of box has not changed...this can be found in menu, information, network


Now at the top look for the tab/word Files, click this and then a sub menu will appear, select oscam.server in here you will see the examples that I've put in for you, its set up for 2 sat, but you can add more or just run one, edit these with your own details. There's a comma between the server address and port, this must remain, be careful not to delete by accident


Once you've edited it with your details scroll to the bottom of the page and select save, then scroll to the top and select restart tab on top right of page, then on pop up restart, wait 10 secs and try and see if channels clear.


On the oscam web interface the live log tab will update every 8 secs with your ECM's if your interested. It will also tell you if something wrong like wrong password, etc


I hope this helps, let me know if you need any help or have any questions, I will try to help

Read the guide:

navigate to the ETC folder, then find Tuxbox folder, drag the whole unzipped config folder to the tuxbox folder

eg: /etc/tuxbox/config

[john doe]

also if no config folder in there, just make one and call it config

Would you like me to send you some config files that work? Email or PM me what you actually want to achieve rather than post here.
