Smargo

[olerocker]

Hello there, thanks for your interest.

I am using openpli image.Also i am using mgcamd/oscam.

The strange thing is that if i start using cccam and then stop it and start mgcamd/oscam everything works fine.

But if i restart my box and start with mgcamd/oscam, smargo does not work.
I have to stop oscam, start cccam, stop cccam, and finally start oscam for smargo to work.

I know it sounds weird but thats how it works.Actually the same thing happened on my old dm7020

Changed to VIX 2.2 today but the problem with the smargo still exists.
Where can i enable debug logs for this image?

Thanks.

When you install& configure the cams in vix, did u ensure u did oscam to autostart first?

Go in to softcam manager, and disable both from starting. Then, tell oscam to auto start, then start oscam. Then tell cccam to autostart, and start cccam. Then check that card is read.

Then, restart box, and see if it's read...

Thank you pooface i have done this and they seem to start properly (mgcamd always needs manual restart though).
The thing is that oscam does recognize the smargo, but does not initialize the card by itself.
have to run cccam till the card opens then stop cccam and start oscam for the card to work.

Is there a chance that the smargo is not properly configured ? What smargo settings do you use ?

Where can i find the softcam autostartup script for the VIX image so i can put some kind of a delay for mgcamd to start about 30 sec after oscam ? Is this possible.

Thanks all for there precious help !

Sorry, I don't have a smargo, so cannot say for sure. What card are u using? And what are ur settings for oscam? Maybe u should change them if not working properly?!

I have a s*y uk card, if i use internal reader all is fine with my configs, the problem exists only with smargo.

I am afraid to use et9000´s internal reader because of temperature or voltage issues that might damage the card (as like dreambox internal readers).

It is annoying though that all is perfect except for this problem i am having.

I would not worry about the ET9K reader, I have had a sly card in there and its been fine.

[olerocker]

Thanks for your reply.

Do you have good ecm times in the internal reader ?
Because i had some pixelization issues due to long ecm times.

I would appreciate deeply if some one has a good working oscam configuration file for sly card in smargo.

Thank you.

i was getting mosaicing using the internal card reader even with it overclocked to 5.5 Mhz i was still getting ecm times of around .247 ms i now use a smargo and it's shaved .100 ms off the times i now get readings of around .140 ms.

hope this helps.

Does the card get hotter by overclocking?

[canthackit]

not overly in mine mate, it does run warm tho.

i do have a fan blowing over the top of the unit so that's an added precaution.

should have added that the card does run cooler in the smago.
