Shy Channels on sat with dreambox 500s

you can have a simple f line like F:mate1 box1 (as you say the additional stuff is restrictional,what you allow your friends) are you just using a cline (share)or are you the server also. you could try cccam 2.1.3 and see if it cures the freezing, i have read a few post regarding issues with 2.1.4, but i dont use it so i cant comment on it.

 

Piopat, I wish I knew all you say I know. I just enjoy learning. I still know minimal stuff of what my DM800 baby can deliver. But to answer you question, if you only have one USB then the lines you need to use are for USB0. You need to remove the reference to using the internal smart card reader as otherwise the system will get confused (the line you currently have in your DM500 identifying the card reader as the internal reader). Using your PC as a server is another game that you really don't need to know unless you must. It takes time and a lot more effort

Cmonks, I would suggest you revert to cccam 2.1.3. There are many forums complaining of freezing on 2.1.4. While 2.1.4 has solved sly italia counter-measures it is not necessary on current uk/ire sly cards at the moment. Having said that I have a share working on 2.1.4 with no freeze issues. having said that I do not allow shares outside my friends, have changed my password on my central system so no-one can update my central cccam.cfg. I am not a believer in sharing with the larger community, just with friends. Is it possible you have extended your network past its limits. Or is ti possible that your router uplink is simply crap. Who is your broadband provider and what is your uplink speed

 

when they mentioned vista etc, they meant cs using a pc as a server ,i get it now i picked it up wrong. thanks for that fint.

 

Piopat, the Smargo you list will do fine. www.argolis.com have recently updated drivers on their site. But if you cannot find the Windows application to update your smargo then you will find all files necessary here where I have uploaded them

http://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/dreambox-support-forum/148795-how-setup-smargo-smartreader-2.html

Just scroll to the thread where I have added the necessary files

 

thanks for that fint cheers mate.

 

piopat, welcome. have no issue with someone who want's to learn and do stuff. have bad karma with doods who want simple answer. I look at the dreambox as a learning tool. you wannna play. i'm willing to supply info. you want free channels and no effort. sorry, not my type. i've spent some years at this game and know just a little bit. unwilling to share with somebody who has not gone through the pain. Took me a year to get the basics right, took me another year before i was brave enough to reflash box, once i got confident with that i started to learn new tricks.

So newbie, first learn to flash your dreambox, then start learning about addon's then read loads and then you will get the attention of people who will help. Note, PMs don't work, put your issue out there and we will try to help.

And still dislike our cardsharing friends who just want a simple answer. I guess they will get sorted by our police force in the end.

 

just want to say big thank you to fintannl and piopat for the vry useful post , keep up the great work guys , ye made learning for the new guys alot easier

 

it was a struggle pudzy,i had quite a few of those(pulling the hair out)and one or two(f**k this for a game of soldiers)days, but got there with lots of very good help and reading forums till my eyes gave up on me, but its great to get there in the end. its a great hobby to get in to, and once you get used to even the basics you can do quite a bit. one thing i find is i am always learning something i never knew,i enjoy that the most.

 

well done piopat i can sense the delight at your achievement, i have those same hair pulling moments and i am only putting up a dish and running cables, but with the likes of yourself and fintanni on the ball i hope us newbies get there too

 

thanks carrick, as i say i had lots of very good help when i got stuck. and im sure the guys will be happy to help all where they can, and i will be happy to help also .

 

any body know any online stores selling a smargo that accept payment by maestro debit card ,having a lot of trouble getting one. the stores that take my card dont have smargo, and the ones that do have smargo only take master card. i tried isish sites not much luck there either.

 

did you try sat boy. worth a go.

 

thanks pudzy mate ill try them , a lot of stores also drag you through the whole buying thing (saying thank you for buying)only to send an email next day saying we dont post to ireland.

 

had a look there pudzy no go im afraid,thanks anyway.

 

Piopat, if you folllowed my post on the other site where you downloaded the necesary files for the smargo, you will have found out that because my system is a clone it cannot support the smargo i bought. pm me your address and you get my smargo for a price YOU suggest. as i always say its a game so if i can't use mine you are welcome to it for whatever price you wish. it just sits on my mantlepiece anyway

 

otherwise the best price on a smargo is a no frills solution at www.linuxsat.co.uk

 

Hi lads shy uk seems to be down on csharing anyone else experiencing this?? thanks

Hi everyone

I wonder if anyone can help. I'm trying to pop some files into var/keys folder on my dreambox 500s. I'm using ipswitch and on the PC the files are successfully transferred, however when i go to file manager on the box, nothing is there. Can anyone help?

 

do you mean var/etc files like cccam.cfg,let us know.
