[VU+ Duo2] oscam will not start on Zeus

[avinitski]

I cannot get oscam to start.

Versions I have tried are >
enigma2-plugin-cams-oscam_1.20.r9059_mipsel.ipk
enigma2-plugin-cams-oscam_1.20.r8625_mipsel.ipk

I have checked file permissions once the ipk is installed and 'oscam' file is set to 755.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
can you enable debug log, restart gui and attach debug log? I am using oscam only and it works.

ciao

I'm using the '1.20.r8625'; it starts and runs normally.
Are you sure your config is fine?

I had a similar issue on my VU+ Duo: Oscam would not start when I upgraded ViX from 808 to Zeus.

I downloaded version 9566 from

http://download.oscam.cc/index.php?&direction=0&order=mod&directory=1.20_TRUNK/mips-tuxbox-oe2.0

(the "webif-Distribution" file).
I ftp'd this to "/usr/softcams", set chmod to 755 and this version runs for me (no modification of config fields required).

Don't know why this version works but the previous version I had been using (9063) refuses to start, but I have Oscam back!

Hope this may help

thanks for people that have replied.

I got the below file and it works now.....shame the transcoding is broke though! after all the effort i'll have to roll back to a build where transcoding isn't broke.

oscam started using > enigma2-plugin-cams-oscam-9566-cccam-2.3.0_openvix_all.ipk

Transcoding in Zeus works fine.

 

[avinitski]

must be some difference.

Lots of people talking about transcoding can someone tell me what this is or does

 

[avinitski]

Converts \ encodes the video\audio so can be streamed over web or internally to PC, laptops, mobile devices etc

In your set up yes.
But we're way off-topic now....

yes and no, you could already stream to a internal or external network, but it was very heavy on network resorces especially on mobile devicesto external networkd. Transcoding basically takes the stream be it live or recorded and on the fly re-encodes it to a lower bit rate, so i wont take up as much bandwidth when being streamed to mobile devices.

As rob said transcoding is working just fine in ViX Zeus, so the issue lies with your setup somewhere. if you make a new thread we may be able to help and see where your going wrong.
