Same question, what does "menu / setup / Softcam/CI" say?

So it wasn't selected after installation? Did you restore a backup after flash? If so, did you alter what is in your backup (in particular, select /etc in its entirety)?

I installed the clean image normally in slot_2, after that I went to plugins / softcams / oscam, and sent my files already configured to var / etc / tuxbox / config / oscam-emu as I normally do for all images, did I do anything wrong?

No.

 

Can you still answer the question: was the softcam not selected when you went into the softcam menu?

 

And did you install oscam, or oscam-emu? or both?

I just installed emu-oscam, normally.
Oscam-emu is always selected but after restarting the image oscam is not active but is selected, I have to manually restore it to boot.

Ok, so it is selected, but it didn't start.

 

What do you mean by "manually restore"?

Yes correct

 

"What do you mean by "manually restore"?"

I'm going to Menu/Setup/SoftCam/CI  and  Restart softcam ( manually retory is not correct - poor translation from google translator

 

I think that when starting the image the softcamd startup script does not start or is not in the startup boot

Ok.

 

And when you restart the box, you have the same problem again?

 

If so, does your box have a startup channel set to it can retrieve the correct time after startup? Oscam won't start if it doesn't have the correct time.

Yes ! if you just restart enigma2 no, the softcam stays active if it was previously active

Yes it gets the correct time, I have already tested it in two ways, restarting the box on a free channel and oscam does not start alone and the correct time, 2nd way restarting the box on a coded channel oscam does not start alone but the time is correct.

There is a difference between a cold start (from power off) and a warm start (reboot).

 

The box doesn't have an RTC chip, so no time on a cold boot. But it does have a system clock, which doesnt lose its value on a reboot. So do check after a deep standby and disconnect of the power.

This situation is only happening with this openpli 7.3 image, with other images this problem does not happen (Openeigth 6.7, OpenAtv 6.4), after the cold start the softcamd is active, I hope I have helped.

You don't answer my questions.

 

I don't care what happens with other images, I want to know why you have this problem with OpenPLi, and nobody else has this same problem.

 

I can only repeat: Oscam doesn't start if the box doesn't have the correct time fast enough. This is usually only an issue on cold boots, never on reboots. And it can be solved by setting a startup channel, or installing the systemtime plugin and use NTP.

 

OpenATV and other OE-A based images use NTP by default, so they work differently and can't be compared.

Hi Guys,

 

Great work! Pli is flying on my sf8008 twin.

Any ideas why my oscam-emu is not starting automatically?

Installed from the feed.

 

Sorry, I talked about other images because for example openeight 6.7 is based on openpli. There is another report here from someone else reporting the same problem Page 20 post 390.

 

If you install CCcam the same thing happens

It happens on "warm" reboot too.

First i thought it's because of the system time not correct and installed the plugin wich gets time via NTP.

No change. Oscam-emu doesn't start.

 

Image is fresh installed with no backup restored. No other cam is installed.

Just to double check, what image are we talking about? 7.3-rc? 7.2-release?

 

Then I'll flash my SF8008 with it too, and see what happens...
