make that /etc/init.d/softcam.xxx - doesnt need (or work) with the .sh at the end

for /usr/bin/xxx doesnt realy need the .bin .. but if it is there .. make sure you reference it as such in the /etc/init.d script

good luck

ftp the file to the box and use the tar command to unpack it?

Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Pro (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

command to unpack .tar.gz archive is
tar zxvf archive_name.tar.gz
so in your case, ftp tarball for example to /tmp
then in telnet:
cd /tmp
tar zxvf elgatoHD.tar.gz

I had already been running the moded elgato HD on my VU for the last 3-4 weeks.

It worked perfectly except the help button would cause a crash but I didnt use this option anyway. (others had reported that they werent having this problem with it in PLi on VU+).

I hadnt updated the box with nightly backup since the issues of the 18th, when I did an update (51 packages) the timer and recording were not working so I wanted to rebuild my machine and install the skin correctly incase when I manually copied them some files were not installed or permissions were wrong.

Demitris,

I ftped the file to /tmp and ran with the above commands.

cd /tmp
tar zxvf elgatoHD.tar.gz

Demitris,

Compare the names in the psots.
I posted that. lol.

I did a manual copy and it worked but the help button caused a green screen.

Others had said that it installed ok so I thought I was missing files or had incorrect file permissions so I tried (for the first time) the tar.gz but it didnt work.

So thats why I posted here as BLZR helped me on thsi before so I wanted to see if he had success with it.
