Yeah, unfortunately there are people like that...

 

I'll click the "thumbs up" for you.

 

And I can't help you with your question, don't use those readers, and haven't seen Windows in years...

Thanks (: On any given day (well, work days at least) I see most OS's (; win, *nix, osx, android, ios.. whatever works

It's use is restricted to senior members of this forum. This was done to prevent mis-use (users creating dummy accounts, then giving themselfs a lot of thumbs-up).

Makes sense (: sad to have to go out of the way to avoid semi-idiotic behavior (; virtual bragging rights abused to the max

A big thanks to radxnl from me instead then (:

Any thoughts on why the smartreader isn't correctly detected/installed in Windows 7 is appreciated - although you guys already helped a lot! (manufacturer, take notes)

 EDIT: is there a "thank you"/rep-system? if so I'd like to +1 radxnl for this (:

Try the green thumb on the right bottom in the posting from Radxnl.

I don't see it.. not on your post either, do you?

on your linux system start with:

 

cat /dev/ttyUSB0 to see if your access rights are setup correctly ( default distro installation sometimes requires root only access ( = bad ) to serial ports )

Thank you radxnl - that's the ticket (: and I should have thought of that myself (or the manufacturer). I modified my users groups and gained access, and the smartreader2-tools worked as supposed.

That enables me to use the product with Ubuntu - but it's still not recognized/installed correctly in Windows (7 in my case) - any thoughts on that?

Is it really necessary to update your device? I got it working on an E2 STB, how ever up untill now all 3 readers won't read my Conax-card, Seca3-card works well! Maybe you need some extra plugins to get it working. See below (OScam werkt niet) if you need any translations....

I see your point, but as it is now I don't seem to be able to open communication to the device in any case, that kinda throws a wrench in the system.. and also I'd like to be able to assign the "id" to the device as the product advertises );
