I'm sure he doesn't use our feeds, I don't recognize his scripts in /etc/init.d/ at all, we don't mention the oscam version in our oscam scripts (CAMNAME) scripts....

 

So it is quite understandable that it doesn't work.

BTW, where did you download these IPK packages ? According to their exact name, they do not belong to the PLi feed server . They are from another source. Not from the PLi feed. This could be a faulty build version of Oscam.The IPK package for Oscam, on the PLi feed, has a name such as:

 

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam-emu_git1988+a137cbf-r0.3_mips32el.ipk

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam_git10622+ede10dc-r0.1_mips32el.ipk

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam_git10622+ede10dc-r0.1_cortexa15hf-neon-vfpv4.ipk

...

etc.

on the openpli 8.3 feed gives me the old version 11714, can you send me version 11719 compiled for openpli 8.3?

[marcus83]

this is the version 11718 and looks equal to 11719, why does it work regularly?

 

 

 

CAMNAME="OSCam_11718-r798"

remove_tmp() {
    rm -rf /tmp/*.info* /tmp/*.tmp* /tmp/*share* /tmp/*.pid* /tmp/*sbox* /tmp/oscam* /tmp/.oscam
}


case "$1" in
start)
    ulimit 1024
    remove_tmp
    /usr/bin/${CAMNAME} --daemon --pidfile /tmp/cam.pid --restart 2 --utf8 &
    ;;
stop)
    killall -9 ${CAMNAME} 2>/dev/null
    remove_tmp
    ;;
restart | reload)
    $0 stop
    sleep 1
    $0 start
    ;;
version)
    echo "${CAMNAME}"
    ;;

    echo "${CAMNAME}"
    ;;

What is improved mandatory in this version compared what we have now in our feeds?
I’m afraid all what might happen is the binary you find is simply not a good one for openpli or even for your box etc…

the version in feeds is old 11714 and we are at 11719...now I wrote directly to the oscam developer, and I described the problem with openpli

[littlesat]

But why do you really need the latest highest number? Do you have a good reason or is it just the number?
When you have a good reason we can also consider to change the number for our feeds!

I would suggest you remove all OSCam related files, then install the one from our feed using remote control menu-plugins-softcams and watch TV. As @WanWizard explained in post#17 https://forums.openp...3/#entry1544903 it will reay asap the you can update to the latest.

Hi, sorry, but you are wrong.

 

Oscam is not software or an operating system. It's just some software interface between DVB and decoding card. If everything works correctly, there is no reason to change anything there. I personally know people who use even very old versions of 115xx or 116xx. There's really no reason if you don't need to deal with a specific bug.

 

Binary files for the Oscam can be downloaded from anywhere. Although you can never guarantee that the binary file will not contain any spyware or malicious code. Namely, there is no antivirus software in small Linux distributions, that would automatically protect you from something similar. However, there are websites where Oscam binaries can be trusted (builds from different people making different builds of Oscam that work). So you can get and overwrite the original binary with the new one. You only need the binary that is intended for your chipset in the set-top box ("mips/32/el", "arm" or its derivatives and "sh4" chipsets).

i know, but I always want to stay updated, it is my flaw maybe in the future this oscam will suppose what I am looking for and at the moment this also seems to not support it … but at least I tried it.

 

ps. sorry for my english

on the openpli 8.3 feed gives me the old version 11714, can you send me version 11719 compiled for openpli 8.3?

 

You were told to wait until the build update was finished, see https://openpli.org/, on the left.

 

If you want to hack your system manually that is not a problem, but at least study and get some linux experience before you do...

Apart from that the differences between the 'old' and new version are so negligible.....

i understand, but then why does the developer make updates? to correct some things, I suppose, so I don't see why not update.

The latest commit was a fix for Nagra, do you own a Nagra card?

And what was not working with the previous version which work's with this version again?

[marcus83]

And what was not working with the previous version which work's with this version again?

card reading is faster, and scripts have returned to work, but it doesn't change much...

[littlesat]

Maybe we can re-pin

Afaik already done.
