MultiCAS Version 1.61C-A08

**hfmls** · 10-12-2009, 03:12 PM

there is.

put ccam native and all those newcamd and clines in cccam native cccam.cfg
then create a F: line for multicas.

put C: in multicas and that's it.

so:

cccam native + multicas.

It's about local card ; if u want external share use multicas+newcs+cccamd ; if u want internal share , no need for newcs.

Shouldnt I need re-share in this case?
I dont think that I can re-share the C and N lines (altough locally)?

Must the owner of the server enable this option for me?

There seem to be plenty of possible combinations now, using NewCS and MultiCAS.

It would be good to test them all and "map them", as it were...

Hfmls has tested now if we can have both Newcamd and CCcam clients working at the same time. He says it's working.

In which case it looks promising...

One more question :-)

What is the benefit of using the combination cccam native + multicas compared to using only cccam native, if newcs and cccam are concerned?

cccam native supports already both as client, but is buggy.

As far as I know, cccam native is not running stable on Azbox, multicas will be supported better.

@hfmls
cccam native + multicas:
cccam native communicates with the servers and saves the infos locally so that multicas can use them.

Do I understand correctly?

if so, is this a stable combination?
Because cccam native is somehow buggy on Azbox.

What if we want to do it only with NewCS + MultiCAS? How would you see it working, Val?

Newcamd protocol for internal reader [via NewCS to read the card and be a server to your peers] + MultiCAS as CCcam client to your peer's CCcam servers. In that case you lose your own card opening the package you're subscribed to?

Have you tried it, please? What would be needed in terms of settings/config files/lines?

Thanx!

Newcs + multicas is ok , but only if the card doesn't work directly with multicas with cardreader on . You can't use your clines (multicas doesn't work at the same time as nline & cline client) .
You will not loose your own card 'cos it's connected to multicas via newcs and cccamd . Shortly it looks like this : local card->newcs->cccamd->multicas .
You need in settings :
- newcs.xml with local card conn (127.0.0.1) ;
- cccamd with :
a)local nline in cccamd.cfg -> connects to newcs
b)fline for multicas (user , pass)
- multicas with local ip (192....) cline and same user & pass like the ones 1 fline .

Val .

Yes , it works ; i have in cccamd.cfg 3 external nlines and 1 internal nline(local card via newcs) and multicas conn. internal to cccamd .

**goran** · 10-12-2009, 04:18 PM

Val, how about:

-not using CCcamd but just
-disable MultiCAS card reader, then
-use NewCS 1.20RC13 for internal card reader?

From then on,
-can MultiCAS Newcamd Client connect to NewCS [and how], while at the same time
-having the CCcam Client active?

Hfmls says it works...

In other words, we do not have to use dvbapi at all, as it's unstable anyhow. I mean, it's a layer too many, as CCcam for AZbox HD is a hack, so...

Thanx!:cheers2:

MULTICAS USING CLINES AND A NEWCS LINE WORKS!

at the moment i have user multicas in my newcs connected with some ECM's received.

and user multicas in cccam connected with some ECM's received.

so...they both work together!

just do this:

go to PLUGINS, and Multicas setup.
go to the area where you setup manually clines and newcamd line

PUT CCCAM CLINES ACTIVE, LOGIN IN ALL CCCAM CLINES AND SAVE
GO TO NEWCAMD part, MAKE ACTIVE AND LOGIN IN THAT LINE AND PRESS SAVE.
confirm if all is connected and active then press exit, and YES.

you should now BE WATCHING channels with NEWCAMD LINE, and when u go to a channel you don't have in your card, in your newcamd line....multicas will start using CLINES from cccam, because u don't have it in your newcamd line

all clear?

**valerica** · 10-12-2009, 04:52 PM

Sorry it doesn't work for me : once Client NewCamd feature selected , all clines go to red/off -> checked with Multicas Editor v.1.4 ; no descramble.

Cheers ,
Val .

**hfmls** · 10-12-2009, 05:45 PM

here is working :S

**goran** · 10-12-2009, 07:27 PM

OK, hfmls, when you exit MultiCAS you have:

-activated CCcam Client
-activated Newcamd Client
-NewCS is reading your local card [I presume Nagra3 for Hispasat, Cabo package]

So, what do the config files look like exactly?

You have deactivated the card reader function in MultiCAS, I presume, so NewCS can take over and read the card?

And what of the cccam and newcamd cfg files, please?

NewCS is connected with MutliCAS how exactly? I mean, can we see your config xml file, please?

Or are you still not using your AZbox HD as a server/card reader and for that you're using your Dream or...?

Thanx!

P.S. The trick is to show it in such a way so that everybody can repeat it [provided they can sort out their card in NewCS, of course...]...

How? Well, do NOT presume anything. Do NOT presume that reader knows what you are talking about. Then, you'll be a good "how to" writer!

Half-measures are frequently wasted time, as they can even confuse more than enlighten...

**hfmls** · 10-12-2009, 07:44 PM

i have newcs in dm500. normal configuration, just created a user for multicas.

cccam native (without dvbapi) and multicas in azbox hd.

multicas reader deactivated in file:
cardreader.cfg

Disable_CardReader = 1

**goran** · 10-12-2009, 07:51 PM

But hfmls: we are talking about AZbox HD and its capacities... You know, how to do it with AZbox HD, not AZbox HD + Dream...

**hfmls** · 10-12-2009, 07:53 PM

lol, that's not important.
just put newcs in azbox hd. then it's the same steps, deactivate card reader in multicas like i told.

same thing.

**goran** · 10-12-2009, 08:23 PM

Really?

Have you tried?

I told you I can't, as I haven't the card...

**hfmls** · 10-12-2009, 08:28 PM

i've not tried newcs in azbox hd.

but i tried multicas with card disabled and put the card in azbox hd. "reading card" didn't show up.

so disable card it's working.
