I have a Red card from a Sky+ HD box. I'd like to be able to watch ITV 3 HD, etc. Do you have instructions please. I wrote instructions down that worked before but I must have got something mixed up as I can't get a picture on my VU+ Ultimo 4K box that I've just upgraded to.
 
ITV3 HD requires a sky subscription and Sky hd cards are married to the box no longer possible to use them in non sky boxes and has been the case for yonks.
 
You don't know what you're talking about. I watch ITV 3 HD on my non-Sky box every day with my Sky card in the box.
 
If you are going to put your sky card in the Ultimo4k instead of Duo 2, why not just copy the oscam configs?
 
did you install oscam for ARM boxes ? Just as said copy your config from the old box in the new oscam ARM version

They were deleted as the box was wiped clean for a new install.

Just to be clear, my red Sky card has a paid multiscreen subscription on it that I'd like to be able to view channels such as ITV 3 HD and ComdedyCentralHD on mu Ultimo 4K box which I was able to view a few days ago on a previous box. The link in an earlier post #4 doesn't help as that's for freesat, it doesn't have a boxid mentioned in the server file.

Can someone please give me a link to the correct cams ipk file.

Do I keep these files on my Ultimo box and is there anything I need to edit inside them?:
  • oscam.conf
  • oscam.server
  • oscam.user

Where do I get this file from and do I need to edit anything inside it?:
oscam.dvbapi

Do I still copy the following info into the server file?:

[reader]
label = SKYUK
protocol = internal
device = /dev/sci0
boxid = my box id goes here
cardmhz = 2700
mhz = 450
blockemm-g = 1
blockemm-unknown = 1
saveemm-u = 1
saveemm-s = 1
emmcache = 1,3,2
group = 1
caid = 0960

I know how to generate the boxid for the server file.
 
... you didn't take any settings/image backups then ?
 
skyfan, that was a little tease, I'm sure you will sort it with the new processor.

Instructions needed for how to setup oscam t

If you don't get this sorted...

Setting backups are automatically created when flashing by Image Manager. They are saved on HDD and not wiped during an image flash. You can unzip them using 7zip and get what you want.

Thanks but my drive was wiped before putting it into my new box. I thought the instructions would be readily available here like they were in a different forum but nobody here seems to have instructions or links to the files. I tried to visit a bookmarked link to where I got the instructions from a different forum but they've deleted the page.

Info I'm looking for that I mentioned in post 7: https://www.world-of-satellite.com/...uch-as-ITV3-HD&p=503913&viewfull=1#post503913
 
Install Oscam from Opevix plugin server using receiver. ( It does not have have configs)
Download OScam configs ( link to one example posted above already)
Edit configs and edit to suit needs etc. Add boxkey, double check using right card slot in configs.
Transfer oscam configs to /etc/tuxbox/config/
Start oscam

Thanks. I can't see a link to the OScam configs. Can you give me the link please.

Edit configs and edit to suit needs etc.

What do you mean? I thought I only had to add the the boxkey? Is there other stuff I need to edit?
 
You need to add your box key and make sure you are using the right card slot. If the configs you download are for top slot and you are using bottom slot, it won't work.
 
Thanks. But do you have a link to the OScam configs please as I can't see the link you mentioned. The only other link in the thread is to setting up freesat.

It's not for Freesat, it's for Sky FTV with a card that's only entitled to FTV. Put a sky card in that's entitled to more and prehaps you can get more. Which is what you want. Yes?

I spent all day setting up my backup box to cap freesat assuming my old VU+ Duo 2 would still be working when I went back to it for using it to record ITV 3 HD, etc. For some reason it's not getting a picture on ITV 3 HD, etc. I've checked /etc/tuxbox/config and the server file still has my boxkey so it looks like I didn't wipe the flash memory. Tried putting my Red Sky card that still has a paid multiscreen subscription in both the top and bottom slot and I can't get a picture on either slot. The VU+ Duo2 is used the same image as it was yesterday when it was working so I'm not sure why it's not getting a picture on ITV 3 HD, etc now?

I don't have time to try to get it working as I've got stuff that's recording at 6AM tomorrow. Does anybody has a working oscam and config files please for a VU+ Duo2 (it has a MIPS CPU)? It would be much appreciated.
The oscam.server file I have that has my boxkey on it says this: device = /dev/sci0
I assume that means I need to put my Sky card in the top slot?

I've tried different configs but nothing seems to work. Sorry, I'm just really tired. Been up all day trying to get this working and I'm exhausted.
