sly card in vu duo

[dary]

Hi again, let me put my question this way: Is there any way to get the Sky Freesat Card working without knowing the serial number of the registered Sky-Box?!

 

[Donnie]

yes use oscam and it does all the work for you.

You dont need a serial number to use the freesat cafd, only for premium.channels. Use cccam and it will work fine.

Pick Tv will not work with CCcam anymore so you loose 2 channels at present. Only Oscam can do the job at present.

you dont need the box key for a freesat card. i my self use a freesat card in my DM7020 with CCcam, you dont enter any details for the card into the CCcam.cfg file as it will auto detect the card. you only need boxkeys when using premium channels such as sport or movies.

no great loss to be fair, it's a pap channel any hoo.

Thanks!

Is there a way to re-activate the freesat card. It seems to be expired in November 2010.
I looked it up in CCCAM Webserver http://mybox:16001

I have heard that OSCAM can activate cards if you stay on a encrypted channel like "5 USA" up to three days... is this true?
Is this also working without OSCAM by using CCCAM only?

Thanks a lot,
Dary

 

[Larry-G]

just leave it in the box with CCcam activated for a couple of days, it will re-activate providing it's not totally dead.

 

[dary]

How can I determine if it's not totally dead? Should I keep watching three days an encrypted (dark) channel?

 

[Larry-G]

just leave it in the box for a bit, surely your life does not depend on decrypting a FREE channel. have a bit of patience. it wont go any faster just because you want it to.

There are no cams via the download menu,you need to ftp into the tmp folder and manually install via the ipk option in vix

Hi all, Just put my active SLY card in my VU+ Duo using latest VIX 2.2.103 and all subbed channels clear without using any boxkey.
Is this a new feature or will the card deactivate soon without adding the boxkey?

 

[basilyoung]

if your card works without the box key, thats surprising, best to see what happens, as its not an easyone to answer

did you update to vix 2.2.1xx from a older version via the update feature of the image ?, because if you did the image will still be using the CCcam.cfg file you had previously. and for the record CCcam can not decode the premium channels on sky uk card without the boxkey being present in it's config file.

Hi Pheonix, no it was a fresh USB flash of VIX 2.2.100 then online updates.
Definitely no boxkey in my CCcam.cfg.
It's the basic Irish sub, was just surprised that Irish channels clear as they don't on an expired card I tried.

 

[Larry-G]

it's likely then that the channels in question are FTV like the UK FTV channels, which require a card but no boxkey to clear, as no premuim channels ( movies / sports etc ) will clear without a boxkey present while reading the local sky card in CCcam.

Yeah, suspect that's the case now. However Irish channels aren't available on FTV satellite in Ireland for some stupid reason (cash & SLY)...
but for now, as long as there is still a sub on the Irish card it clears those channels without boxkey. Will update if it changes.

 

[judge]

also getting other channels that aren't FTV in Ireland like Sky Arts without adding the boxkey & using the basic SKY sub card in Ireland.
