    Welcme to the forum jonone2.

    There are guides, on the forum, and useful tools.
    Are you experienced, with Enigma 2 receivers?

    Can you please tell us what image, you have loaded, on your VU+ Zero.

    This is a very useful tool, uploaded by hda5:
    https://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthrea...-os******erver

    This will help you compile your oscam files.
    Start up softcam_concierge.exe, select the Oscam.Server option, then copy, and paste, your lines, into the Line box, and click add line.
    Once you've finished adding your lines click the save config option, and make a note of where the files are stored.

    Have you downloaded a FTP program, like Filezilla, or are you using the VU+ Control Centre option?

    Please post back with more detailed information, so that we can assess how much help you need.

    Most files, on most images, go into the var folder, etc, tuxbox, config, but I think Open ATV might be different.
    I seem to remember a similar thread, on the forum, where an Open ATV user posted some information, I'll try to find it.

    Have a look in the various 4K threads, I do remember someone experiencing problems, who had his lines working on his older VU+ Duo2 but couldn't get them all working on his VU+ 4K receiver:

    Eventually he tried a new supplier and the channels worked.

    If you follow the instructions that Mickha gave you in post #2, i.e. use Softcam Concierge NOT cccam2oscam.

    Softcam Concierge will FTP the files to the correct folder for you. Select the Image from the dropdown box and click the upload to box button.

    Yes, on OpenATV files go to usr/keys/oscam_atv_emu so I think Concierge will not find Oscam in etc/tuxbox.

    I can only explain my experience using ATV on Mutant HD51. You first install Oscam softcam from ATV's plugins. This will then create a directory called usr/keys/oscam_atv_emu which contains about 7 files one of which is oscam.server. Restart oscam softcam on the receiver. You then need to ftp and replace oscam.server with your own. Hope this helps.

    Your best bet is to load a backup image for you box which will have everything configured all you have to do is load oscam server

    Thanks for letting us know.
    Have you got Kodi working yet?
    I find myself watching more on Kodi, and downloading the content, than I do on satellite, except for live football, like tonights chamipons league game, Real Madrid Vs PSG.

    Hi,
    Most of the programmes for the box can be downloaded on line, but still being a Dreambox owner, it is worth noting that the iDreamX online prog for accessing DB's via it's internet address also works well for the VU+ boxes, and I do all the sort of things mentioned in this thread via it using my computer. All extra files .ipk etc can be added as can keys and other files. they can also be easily accessed if and when a chnage is needed. It's worth a thought. Every success with your box. Cheers - Brain

    Let me be clear about where files go:

    There is NO set place for oscam key files which are image dependent.

    When oscam is compiled, you can set where the config files will be located - by default they are in /etc/tuxbox/config/
    If oscam has been compiled to put these elsewhere - that's where oscam will look for them.
    So try /etc/tuxbox/config/ first.

    You can telnet into your stb and stop oscam - killall -9 oscam, and then issue the command to start it again - /usr/bin/oscam

    If you get any issues the command prompt will tell you.

    You can also manually start oscam and set the config directory by issuing this command:

    /usr/bin/oscam -b -c /etc/tuxbox/config

    (this command is the same as when your image uses a script to start oscam - so look at your camscript to see what it's been set to)


    That's all - also make sure oscam file has chmod set to 755 (permission to execute).
