key changing

Im in dublin and my dbox would not work for the whole day,i read on another forum that the cable companies were changing the keys.

I usually run newcamd but it wont work now and neither will evocam,the only one that will work is mgcam,They other two display a picture and sound for about 30 seconds and then nothing but a black screen even after restarting them.I was wondering if anyone nows how to fix this or do they take longer to update or what,cause i prefer newcamd to mgcam?

Thanks
David

 

Which newcamd version do you use?

 

6.10b

 

Check the log output via nullmodem cable to see whats going wrong.

 

how is that done,from the dbox or computer end?

 

If you never done a bootlog from the box telnet is maybe easier.
Telnet to box and type killall newcamd. Restart with the command newcamd

 

I think the problem is that N*L have/are in the process of changing the keys they use. MGcam is the only one that works at the moment.

I think we're going to have to wait until some nice chap develops a new version of evocam or newcam.

 

It depends which newcamd/evocamd versions are installed and which rom versions.
Only with installed rom7 files all version should be functional.
