how do i use my sly card in vu duo.... many thanks
You need to download and install CCCAM from here http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...iX-Team-images and than FTP a cccam.CFG file to the box.
For the card to be read you need the box and than need to enter this into the CFG file. If you search the web for boxkey, you will find how to do it, its such a long time since I did it I cant recall.
You need to enter the box key in the CFG like this depending on which slot you put your card in.
card reader /dev/sci0
BOXKEY: /dev/sci0 XX XX XX XX
or
card reader /dev/sci1
BOXKEY: /dev/sci1 XX XX XX XX
Vix does not have the CFG file and post 9 here explains how to do it.

If you do not have premium channels ie movies and sport than you do not need the box key just install CCCAM and FTP a config file to the box and it will read it for you.

Step by step guide, presuming you have an FTP program on your PC and know how to use it, and that you simply want to use your sly card in your VUduo and not do anything dodgy.
1) Work out your box key
2) Install CCCam2.1.4 (something like Menu, Plugins, Download plugins, cams)Code:On the back of your sly box is a 17 digit number Ignore the first 6 and the last 1 number, that gives you a 10 digit number. For example, if your 17 digit code is 1E200506858456748 You would ignore the first 6 (1E2005) and the last one (8) which would leave you with the 10 digit number 0685845674 google for a hex convertor (or use your calc if it has one),place the 10 digit number in and convert it to Hex. The above example would give 28E12CAA which is your box key entered as (note the spaces) BOXKEY: /dev/sci0 28 E1 2C AA If your box key turns out at only 7 characters add a 0 (zero) to the beginning of the number to make it 8 characters long.
3) On your PC create a text file called CCcam and enter the following two lines
/dev/sci0 is presuming you are using the top slot for your Sly card.Code:BOXKEY: /dev/sci0 12 34 AB CD SMARTCARD CLOCK FREQUENCY: /dev/sci0 3570000
Type it exactly as in the above, case sensitive, replacing "12 34 AB CD" with your box key.
save the file.
4) You will now have a file called CCcam.txt which needs to be changed to CCcam.cfg
Start Windows Explorer (Start, All Programs, Accessories, Windows Explorer) then click on "Documents"
Click on the "Organise" tab followed by "Folder and Search Options"
Click on the "View" tab and untick the box to the left of "Hide extensions for known file types"
Click "OK"
Right click on your newly created CCcam.txt file, select "rename", highlight the txt and change it to cfg
You will get a warning message saying something along the lines of "If you change file types, file might become unusable, are you sure..." click "Yes"
5) FTP your newly created CCcam.cfg file to the /etc directory on your VUduo box.
6) Shut down your VUduo box, insert your Sly card into the top slot (I made the mistake of thinking I had the top slot but as I was looking at the box from above, I actually had the lower slot, so double check)
7) Power up your VUduo box.
8) Menu, Setup, Softcam/ci
Softcam Setup
If there's nothing after "Active cam"
Select Cam: CCcam2.1.4
Press green button to start it.
Press blue button to autostart it
You are done. It should now automatically start every time you reboot and you should now have access to your channels.
Hi,
I've followed these instructions and am having problems accessing the premium channels such as Sky1 etc. In most cases the picture's just black and sometimes I get a message saying "Service not found. SID not found in PAT". I can see that CCcam is started and set to auto restart.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Just a tip:
If you want to make the above CCcam.cfg file, then use notepad in windows.
After entering your info (above post), then go to "Save As"
(I normally select to save on the "desktop" so the file is easy to find, and to drag and drop via ftp etc)
To save as the correct .cfg file instead of a .txt file then press the drop down "Save As Type" (which will be set too TEXT DOCUMENTS (*.txt)
And select "all files (*.*)"
Name your file CCcam.cfg and it will be correctly saved to your desktop!

The file itself seems fine mate. I used textpad and file extension is correct.
had my bouquets messed up proper. Reflashed the image and setup everything from scratch and it's all up and running now. Practice makes perfect eh
next is configuring epgs, skins etc.
Thanks for the help on this
one thing i found out just to help ppl is you dont need to search for a hex converter your windows calculator will convert it too all you do is go to calc switch to scientific calc then type in your 11 didgit serial number then click on hex and hey prestow its in hex
Hey guys,
Do you need to put the Sly card back in the Sly box at any stage. I heard they deactivate if not put in the Sly box once in a while.
Thanks
that depends on which softcam you use. some people i know do put their card back into their original box once a month or so to update their rites some however use the softcam it self to update the rites.
