A NEWBIES GUIDE TO SETTING UP A DM500S FOR CARDSHARING

fintanni i finally figured out what i was doing wrong thanks for your help ive got it working now. On to internal share and external.

 

its always easy when you understand what the problem is

 

hi all wonder if anyone can help !! i am new to this but i will let u kow were i am up to :-
dish aligned, box flashed with pli jade3, signal lock transponder found, serached found all sky channels but everything has a blank screen i know i wont get the channels till i get a cardsshare but no fta !! i get a few arabic channels or live chat channels but thats about it !!

so i downloaded a trail cardshare they sent me the codes now i am stuck !! i followed the guide but still cant figure it out i know i must be close and it will be something silly but i cant work it out ha ha

any help would be appreciated !!

oh yeah i am running DM500s, technomate motor with 88cm dish

 

there are no arabic channels on the sky satellite mate ,that sounds a bit like hotbird .did you install the motorised dish your self ?,you may need to look at that again.you say you got a trial share (codes) i assume you mean a c line (example)
C:kingpip.dyndns 12000 trial share no ,if what you have resembles that its a c line and you put it into var/etc in the dreambox. to do that you need dream control center,let us know what stage you are at with dream control center and putting the c line.

 

hi mate maybe i am at the wrong satellite but i pick up the sky channels all of them just no picture yesterday i had bbc1 etc but now today i dont have any just religous channels !!

yes got sent 2 codes do i put them both on line 80 or 80 and 81

 

i am now getting basic channels but they keep disappearing, i reboot and them come back !!

i still cant get the cardshare working tho i have read that u only need the codes in the CCcam.cfg file are they both on 1 line or separate ??

I am slowly understanding it but still need some help !!

Thanx anyone who can help

 

codes no longer work. sharing is not associated with codes

 

sorry my fault c lines i got sent them from a cardsharing website

 

yes line 80 or any free line after line 80 will do ,remember to delete the # symbol at the start of any line that you use and then click on file ,then click on exit and save ,and then reboot your box. you say you are picking up the sky channels but no picture (that means your not picking them up ) having the sky channel names in the channel list does not mean you have the channels .if you had bbc1 yesterday that would indicate you had the sky satellite ,if its gone today (and if you installed the dish your self )maybe the dish moved overnight,i would have another look at the dish.

 

cheers mate yeah i have bbc1 but as soon as i change channels it goes ha ha !! so does this mean i am close to a signal ?? on the satfinder it is tellin me i have 96% signal and signal lock !! could i be locked on another satellite but just pickin up the sky satellite as well ??

which is the easiest satellite to pick up ?? maybe i could start again from that 1 !!

 

i have loaded a new image and the channels eg bbc1 bbc2 are fine now good picture good signal.... but its this c lines bit i am stuck on i deleted everything from the CCcam.cgf file and inserted 2 c lines which i got from a free trail but still nothing the website say my trail is still valid !!

any ideas ??

 

Hello, i have run into a problem with DYNDNS.org. I have set up my account but for somr reason my routers outside access IP keeps changing every day and I cant get it to update. I have the updater running on my PC and it is suppose to update the dynamic IP address anytime it changes. My peers are getting really cheesed off with the persist connection to them due to the continuos IP change. Can anyone shed some light on how to get the dyndns updater running on an eircom zyxel router? Thanks.

 

cheers mate i will have a go and that !! just so i am clear i delete # from line 80 and put the c line i got from the website in, i got sent 2 c lines from the website which they say i have to input both ! do i put 1 on line 80 and 1 on line 81 or both on the same line ??

they both start with c so i assume its seperate lines, i have also read that i have to enter yes or no at the end something about sharing emu ?? what is this does this apply to me i have a dm500s

cheers

 

just put one c line in line 80 (having first deleted the # symbol ) and put the second c line in any other free line just before or after line 80 (again delete the # symbol) .of course you can put the c lines in any free line it doesnt have to be line 80 ,i say line 80 in my tutorial as it is where you see examples of c lines and also by saying line 80 it gives newbies a refference point which makes it a little easier when they put in the c line.if you type the c lines in make sure you type and space them exactly as you were given them (or you can copy and paste them in )then make sure to click on file and then click on exit and save ,then reboot your box .

 

cheers mate i will do that now !!

could u explain the sharing emu part or doesnt that apply to me ??

 

menace, i have zyxel too. dyndns update simply does not work on these routers. two options. use inadyn plugin to update dyndns or get a static ip address from eircom

 

Will pay per view work when ordered over the phone or red button in the dm500 or will the card have to go back in orignal box first then dm500

would a dm800 be good to run as a server for 9 to 11 clients or would a better server be needed. Any recomendations.

 

you cannot order box office using a dreambox remote control. however yes you can order ppv and watch it on a dreambox. second question, yes

 

thanks mate any recs on a alternative box?
