Hello,

Ive moved from using cccam to mgcamd as ive heard you get better results. I followed a pdf guide i got sent to me which explained everything great.

Ive ftp the mg_cfg file and newcamd.list with my line

Only thing is after setting up Mgcamd some channels clear and some dont.

Ive searched around the net but cant find anything that will explain why its doing this.

Thanks
 
yep, All files went into the correct places. some channels clear instantly. some dont. Ive gone back to cccam at the moment
 
FWIW, I have been using ver. 1.35a with no issues for the past 6 months.

Regards
 
I think I also have an issue - I'm running Mgcamd 1.35a, openpli-2.1-beta-dm800se-20130518-sim2-ssl84b image - it works great but when changing from a FTA to a paid channel (after a while) there is a significant delay (about 20 seconds) before the picture appears. any help would be very much appreciated? Thanks!
 
Please see below...thanks!

Mate are you still running on a VU+ Duo ?

If you are using a duo then the box type in your config needs changing from

B: { 00 }

to

B: { 06 }

B: { 00 } is auto detect and it is not known for working well
 
Yep, Running a duo clone, Thanks ill try those settings. Cheers guys
 
@Friendzi, what receiver are you using?
L = 00 otherwise you may cause issues on your network.

@KhuramG,
better to have B = 06

I'm certain G=33 for both of you. Please wait for someone to confirm. You may want to see this post.

Thanks - I've also made the changes highlighted above. Will let you know how I get on.
 
What does option G=33 mean? (33 does not appear on the option list)

Unfortunately I still have the same problem. It works fine but when I watch a FTA channel for a while and then change the channel to a paid one there is about 20 seconds delay before the picture appears. It's fine again until I choose to watch a FTA channel for a while (quick zapping is fine) and flick back to a sub channel - it seems something is timing out in the background.

Running Mgcamd 1.35a, openpli-2.1-beta-dm800se-20130518-sim2-ssl84b image - Mgcamd 1.35a downloaded via the image from the PLi server. I've tried changing the image to DBUK to no avail.

Are you using mgcamd with a sealion or nline?
 
sure - will have a go tonight and provide feedback.
 
in newcamd.list have you got CWS_KEEPALIVE = 300
