  • Mates, here is the complete method to watch PowerVu channels on PC/Laptop with the help of Enigma2 receiver without any need of PC DVB card.


    Requirements:
    1. Enigma2 Reaceiver (like Dreambox, Vu+, Spark Enigma2 receivers etc.) with OpenPLi Image installed (Other Image may also work if it has "Include ECM in HTTP streams" option in it).
    2. PC or Laptop
    3. DVBViewer Pro Software.
    4. PowerVu Emu v2.0 (a DVB Emu plugin)


    How to:
    1. Create a new bouquet on your Enigma2 receiver, name it PowerVu (or anything) and add all PowerVu channels available with you in it.
    2. Make Sure that your Enigma2 receiver and PC are in the same network (LAN or wireless network).
    3. Give IP address of your Enigma2 receiver in the address bar of a web browser (FireFox, Opera, Chrome etc.), "OpenWebif" will open if network between your PC and Enigma2 receiver is working


    properly.
    4. Go to Settings - Customize, and check "Include ECM in http streams" checkbox.
    5. Go to Bouquets in OpenWebif and see newly added bouquet (having PowerVu channels in it) and click on the TV icon beside it, a bouquet playlist "services.m3u" will download, save it somewhere.
    6. Switch your Enigma2 receiver to any channel in the PowerVu bouquet from "Openwebif" or with remote of the receiver and leave it there.
    7. Install DVB Viewer Pro.
    8. Copy "PowerVu Emu 2.0" files (PowerVuEmu.dll, PowerVuEmu.ini and Softcam.Key) to "C:\Program Files (x86)\DVBViewer\Plugins".
    9. Now we have to do settings on DVB Viewer.
    10. Go to - Settings - Options - Hardware:
    - Check "Has CI module" checkbox.
    - click "Add" button and select "File Device", "Tuner Type" is "Cable", "Status" is "Normal".
    - To add the enigma2 receiver streams to DVB Viewer, click "Settings" - "Add" - "URL". For example "http://192.168.2.10:8001/1:0:1:9:1:9:5A0000:0:0:0:"
    - Get PowerVu channels links from already downloaded "services.m3u" by opening it in notepad.
    - Set "Frequency" of first URL to "50500" (select from the drop down menu), next URL to "52000" and so on and then press OK.
    11. To scan channels, got to "TV/RADIO" - "CHANNEL SCAN":
    - TARGET ROOT: name it anything (for example "Powervu").
    - TYPE: Cable
    - TRANSPONDER LIST: none
    - SYMBOLE RATES: 6900 (only)
    - "FREQUENCY" starts from "50500" to the frequency which you gave tou your last URL.
    - Untick all checkboxes.
    - Click "Scan Range" and wait for the scan to complete.
    12. Go to "Plugins" and enable "PowerVu Emu 2.0".
    13. Go to Channel List and open your channel by clicking on it to watch it open just like an FTA channel on your PC.

    There is a racing channel on 4.8e which I believe is used by the UK bookies to screen live racing. Also there are some Discovery type channels using the PowerVU encryption. I did an initial google search and there was a couple of blogs claiming to have the keys for those channels.
    I'm not sure how credible this is as I'm sure that the ability to get live racing would be all over the t'internet.

  • how can it work without any additional pc with vlc player to play the powervu channels from enigma2. any config correction for enigma2 receiver to show the powervu channels from it video output?

  • no you read wrong
    all other sats be it from card or line or biss
    work fine
    works just like any other oscam with powervu added


    I gave this a try about 6 weeks ago & got nowhere?
    Oscam server setup was unsettled by using Oscam-emu...


    Mind my knowledge on Oscam is minimal anyways likes??

    If my post helps hit the Thanks ;-)
