Problem with oscam

[frankyjones]

Hi,

When i zap, sometimes on hd chanels, the box block ans i have to reboot it.
It happens when oscam has a timeout on a hd chanel... do you have an idea?

thanks in advance,

[suchmich1983]

not if you dont provide more Infos! Whats your setup???

[frankyjones]

thanks for answer,

i have a GM spark triplex with the last hdmu image.
i have try without my NAS but same.
i use oscam without card inside.
i dont use epg yet and picons are on my usb key.
i use the swap but without swap its the same.

[TheChip]

For triplex you dont need swap, there is enough ram.

Oscam without card will not supportet!

[frankyjones]

ok i will remove swap and activate 1 card that i dont really need.
I think they are less freezes and lees reboot when activate my card but sometimes (3 or 4 times a day) i have to reboot.

This is my oscam.conf:

If i have a timeout and don't zap directly, i have the hdmu logo again and i need to reboot with putty...

Thanks again for your answer!

[frankyjones]

Nobady has an idea pliz?

[frankyjones]

I don't have this with a 800hd. 'don't understand...

[normann]

If i have a timeout and don't zap directly, i have the hdmu logo again and i need to reboot with putty...
Do you have the same Probleme without oscam? on a fta chanal?
Witch Version of HDMU do you have?

[frankyjones]

I know now why it makes that!
Its because of the signal who fails from 70% to 40%.
When i try an other box i have 90% of signal...
I baught a fucking box of shit!
I had to buy a VU+... Thank you Golden Media...

[santa]

please try 11147.

[frankyjones]

Ok i'll try it and keep you informed

[frankyjones]

I have the same problem with a free chanel... I installed the last image and its better but i use oscam and i dont have card in the bux but in a pc and i would like to use the best cam to connect my vps. wich one can i use? camd3? or else?
Thanks 4 your answers!

[TheChip]

There are no support for cs. Only card in Box will supportet!

[santa]

sorry, we don´t support CS here.

[frankyjones]

Ok, I just share with my parents the same abo because i can watch 2 sid simultaneously. I can't record but i dont record often.

[TheChip]

No support for cs!!!

[morly]

@frankyjones: it is nice what you are telling us - BUT: IT IS ILLEGAL!!!!!

[frankyjones]

Ok i can have a second card for 2€ for a month. i will book that but can i use an other cam to read the local cards? i though that it was legual the 2 sid...
thanks for your lights!

[morly]

card local on box - what else do you need except oscam?
working like a charm...

[frankyjones]

I just want to know if oscam is the best or not... finaly the new image works fine! the 11147. I will mount my NAS on it and i'll check if the crash spends again... or not ;) I think it works fine now!

[morly]

always difficult to answer - but many here think oscam is the best - i am one of them :)

[frankyjones]

i understand. i am a fan of oscam to but i've seen some other cam's and don't know wich is the fastest but i've my answers now! i'll come back if the NAS produces a crash of the box... Hope to give you good news soon! good evening

[frankyjones]

Crash again and without my NAS plugged. stupid box

[morly]

any log?

[frankyjones]

Yes, good idea, where is the log file? i see some files in "/tmp" but no log of hdmu...

[santa]

Crashlogs you will find in /media/hdd

[frankyjones]

in media/hdd i have "epg.dat" only

[morly]

something interesting if you make a serial log or lan log?

[frankyjones]

no log inside?

[morly]

crashlog in /media/hdd
otherwise you have to make your own log
as I said - LAN or ser. log (better choice)

edit: if you need help on that let me know

[frankyjones]

It's finaly more stable with the new image...but i dont know where from come these crash of the bos on hd chanel when freeze and why my signal falls from 80 to 50%...and i dont find the log file into "/media/hdd/"

[morly]

Hi, can you read German documents?
There is a great tutorial - but in German only...

[frankyjones]

ja, ich spreche sehr gut Deutsch LOL
No i will learn ;) and google translate will help me...

[morly]

:D
all right...
Try FAQ - Loggen leicht gemacht
If you have problems let me know - I'll translate the most important parts to Engllish

[frankyjones]

That's it,
I see this msg : "to read the boot argsof the spark...do you want to continue yes/no"
I rebooted but i have the same message...

[morly]

for reading the bootargs of the spark7162 you have to load an additional module.
Loading this module results in limited box functionality - so if you want to read the bootargs answer with yes otherwise with no.
For loggin you won't need bootargs - so say no and switch to the loggin tab

[frankyjones]

ok i answer NO and i went to "bootargs" and it's empty

[morly]

yes - you do not need the bootargs for logging :)
go to tab logging

if you want to see your bootargs answer with yes - then you'll see them, but your box will stop tv of remote control...

[frankyjones]

I think i found the problem of my box. i think it's hard and not soft because of the signal who fails under 50% and then thox box crahses

What's the additionnal module to install in the box to generate the log?

I can use the log now!
i see everything and i wait for a new crash ;)

[morly]

no additional module needed for logging - please once more,
your bootargs are stored on a mtd partition which is not visible on the running e2 (HDMU).
after loading the i2s.ko module the partition is visible, bootargs can be read and written - but your box has limited functionality;
this is why I first ask if this module should be loaded or not...
So you get asked - saying yes loads this module until the next reboot - you don't have to do anything for it - the tool is assisting :)

[frankyjones]

ok thanks;

This is the last lines of my log when the box not crashes but is locked with logo who turns.
