No.
Is Oscam selected as your default cam if you check via menu - setup?
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)

Hi,
The problem is that OScam needs that your box gets a proper date and time to start.
So if your box got a power failure and restart, in which state does it restart?
- Turned on on a valid channel that will give its time to your STB
- Turned on but not on any valid channel for the STB to retrieve its time
- Immediately turned off (stand-by)
To work-around this problem and be sure that my box always get a proper date and time I stop using DVB time but I prefer to install on all my boxes the following plugin:
enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-systemtime
This plugin allows me to define NTP as time source, this will means that the box will get its time from internet time servers and it will always be accurate after every restart.
So your box will start, it will get a proper time from the internet and OScam will start properly.
Pr2

See if at least oscam runs as a service, best after switching to a satellite channel (Shell command: top | grep oscam). Or how did you find that oscam is not going? Peacefully I can run in the background, just having the wrong configuration. What does LiveLOG oscam say?
Did you verify the boot string for the oscam binary executable file? Although this should not be a problem after a power failure. I do not know exactly how to start the default oscam install in the OpenPLi image (but I'm only running OpenATV), but there are a few ways to start oscam - using a .em file (such as "/etc/oscam.emu") or a default starter bash script with arguments start | stop | reload in the "/etc/init.d/softcam" folder or the third way through your own alternate bash-script in "/etc/init.d/my_own_script.sh" with run-level-3 assignment.
