    This is a complete minimal-configuration of oscam running on a Dreambox.
    Oscam is reading the card from internal reader
    Oscam is also decrypting the channels using the built-in softcam “dvbapi”.
    Oscam even updates the card using these settings.
    No other softcam necessary!


    All you’ve got to do is CHANGE THE CAID(cardID) AND IDENT(Providers)
    in the reader (in oscam.server) to match your card.
    You can find an overview of cards and their providers here: http://www.streamboard.tv/oscam/wiki/CardsList


    This is a basic configuration which runs out of the box:


    Oscam.conf




    Oscam.server


    Code
    [reader]
    label = SRG
    Protocol = internal
    detect = CD
    device = /dev/sci0
    Group = 1
    EMMCache = 1,3,2
    CAID = 0500
    ident = 0500:023800


    Oscam.user


    Code
    [account]
    user = user
    pwd = pass
    group = 1
    au = SRG


    MANY MANY MANY other functions can be added to this configuration to enhance or add features.


    If you’d like to share your card, you have to add server-processes in oscam.conf,
    like a newcamd-protocol-server or cccam-protocol-server or other protocol server.
    Doing so, different remote cardservers or softcams like oscam, cccam, newcs,…
    are allowed to connect using the corresponding protocols.
    Then add accounts in oscam.user so that our oscam accepts connections
    from these remotes.


    If you want to connect to remote cardservers, you have to add readers in oscam.server,
    like newcamd-protocol connections or cccam-protocol connections or other protocol connections.
    Doing so, your oscam reads cards from remote cardservers or softcams like oscam, cccam, newcs,…
    using the corresponding protocols.


    For more information it’s strongly recommended to read the documentation
    which came with oscam or read the always up-to-date documentation here: http://streamboard.gmc.to/svn/…unk/Distribution/doc/txt/
    And configuration examples here: http://streamboard.gmc.to/svn/…Distribution/doc/example/

  • Am I right in saying I need to have the 3 files listed below saved into etc>tuxbox>config? Do I also need to save the oscam.dvbapi file in this location?


    oscam.user
    oscam.conf
    oscam.server

  • My OCTAGON SF 918 HD receiver ceased to work and just bought the Linux based Technomate TM-Twin 4K completely different beast.

    Can anybody there help with the steps to patch the oscam?
