Should Gbox 225 read a card without any modification? I have a Supersport card in my receiver, running UR10 Beta 2, and the card is working (yes, it's my own card doing the decoding - remove it and the picture freezes!). I didn't do all the software installation myself, so I don't know what mods if any may have been done. A friend's receiver has the same image, Gbox 225 installed, but a known working Supersport card isn't decoding anything. What's the simplest way to get it working?
From UR panel goto "Download config" and download "Gbox 2 Reader" it should then work

if you have added the gbox card readers 1 and maybe 2 as well as gbox in the config section , then I would think it should work
Installed both card readers (at least done as TNT said - is there any way of checking?), still not working.

did you reboot afterwards ?
Yes, that's been done.
Card is right way up too.
Thanks for helping with this one. It's doing my head in. Hope someone can help with this. Very much appreciated guys. Will keep an eye on this thread with a lot of interest.

try a sly card and see if that works using gbox , if it does then you know the card readers and gbox are ok
any body else using a official card in tm9100, what cam is reading it for you. at the moment gazzza has mgcamd 1,27b for premiere emu and gbox 2.25 for digit alb official full package that does not seem to be working at moment but card is deffo ok as got update in my receiver.
Don't have any other card available straight away. (Unfortunately).
I use gbox 2.25 with both card readers installed and sly card works fine , also using mgcamd v1.27 for premiere etcOriginally Posted by Jono

I dont have any other cards to test it either
is anything need in the key for the gbox 2.25 to read the card as all there is in var/key is satankey at moment.

not when its in its own box afaik
when the card is in the actual box , I would say you need gbox v2.25 as the emu , the card readers installed ( I do both ) and the card in with chip on underside
thats how my sly card works , but mine is made multiroom and so there are alterations to be made in some of the files so that works too
select gbox for the package as the emu used too
and a full reboot is always needed too , possibly even a switch off and on
As far as I know all that has been done. Unfortunately I'm 40 odd miles away, and getting up about 3 in the morning, so can't do any more now. thanks for the help, Echelon and TNT, I'll look in again when I get home tomorrow!
Thanks all, will look in tomorrow too. Gazza
Just read in another forum that gbox2.25 on its own will not read cards in any slot you need to write as config file to var/keys for the receiver to know that there is a card for gbox to work with. How this is done i don't know but I'm on a mission to find out.
Also from reading cccam seems to work well with digit alb card in the top slot chip facing down according to other members on other board but they do not mention any config files needed for cccam who knows.

just thought this must be the config for gbox!
but it don't work as we have tried it only thing we did was download gbox reader1 then 2 maybe should only download one or the other.
Regards Jono
"Gbox 2 Reader" is for both card readers to work look in the gbox_cfg right at the bottom and you should see V: { F0 30 }
it also explains what that means
There are lots of ways to read different cards but I'm slightly confused who is using what in this thread ?
You could try CCcam on its own for digit alb card as I have a feeling it may work
Its also worth installing gbox suite/center and cccam info then your no if the card is being seen by either emu you
can also start gbox using telnet to see whats going on
Most emus will work with NewCS as long as you add the newcamd entry I use mgcamd + newcs for my sly card
TNT
to cheek if card is being readed by gbox you better use telnet mate
loggin to the box via telnet by using this command
telnet 192.168.1.111 the ip is only exaple , you must add you,r own local ip off the box
then give this command ps
and see if gbox is running , if it running you need to kill the gbox
to kill the gbox you need to find the pid that gbox uses
all the way on the left in the telnet window you will see the pid number
give this command to kill the gbox kill 2222 pid number is only an example
then to start the gbox manualy via telnet just give this comman in telnet
cd /var/bin or what ever folder you have gbox installed push enter
then enter this ./gbox & then you will be able to see the loggin infor
and what gbox does with the card
remember the gbox.cfg must be configure right with the local ip
so you will be able to see the gbox output.
hoppe this helps a bitt
cheers
