I have flashed pli iolite 2008 image to my 7025 and added the keys/scce folders. There doesn't seem to be any way of downloading cams via web interface so I have copied them to the tmp directory but I now cant find how to manually install on this image.

Could somebody point me in the right direction please?
 
The is a download option, have a good look round. Good luck getting it to clear though. Lets us know the outcome.
 
Most images have an Addons section where you can download these things and there's usually a Manual Addon section for the purpose of what you're trying to do, i.e. copy plugin to /tmp and manually install.

Have a search about for that.

If not, you'll need to manually ftp the files to their locations. The emu usually goes in /var/bin and the config files go in /var/keys as well as the key files. Nagra rom files usually go in /var/scce.

If the EMU manager on the image uses scripts then you'd need to create a script to start and stop the emu. This is all usually done behind the scenes when you download it using the Addons. And the scripts are sometimes specific to that image.
 
Could somebody pleeeeaaase help me with how to install a softcam on this image. Have been banging my head against a wall for ages now and it's beginning to hurt!!!

I must have looked at the same menu pages at least 30 times now!

Hi in pli lolite go to plugins and press green button download plugins there you will have lots of plugins second last is softcam there you will find evocamd mgcamd and cccam download the one you want and go to setup and you will find softcam/ci click on that the softcam setup cursor right there is your cam if you can,t get the cam to work as lot of people are having problems with evo 217 you can manually replace the 217 with say 212 if you want to know how let me know****
 
Hi now to change the cam or put a new one in pli if you can,t get evo 217 to work just put 212 in it,s very simple go to**
1***USR/BIN AND DELETE EVOCAMD AND REPLACE IT WITH 212 I HAVE UPLOADED RENAME THIS TO EVOCAMD AND CHMODD 755
2 NOW GO TO ETC/PLIMGR AND CLICK ON CAMS YOU WILL SEE A EVOCAMD RIGHT CLICK ON THE EVOCAMD YOU WILL SEE A CAM VERSION IT WILL BE 217 YOU NEED TO EDIT THIS TO 212 SAVE AND EXIT NOW GO TO YOUR SOFTCAM WINDOW YOU WILL SEE EVOCAMD 212
THEN JUST START IT***
ANOTHER THING WITH THIS IMAGE DON,T BOTHER LOOKING FOR SCCE JUST PUT ALL YOUR KEYS AND SCCE IN USR/KEYS AND REBOOT YOUR BOX AND START CAM

Thanks Zaf, first time i've managed to get Pli image to clear, didn't think of putting SCCE contents into keys folder :)

The only version of evocamd i've been able to get to clear is 2.17 xmas fix. I've attached it also, just replace as zaf posted. No need to rename or change the version file.

Any idea how to install an emu on this image from scratch though? I belive it cant be done in the normal way of transfering the files cos of the plimgr thing. Also i couldn't find any of the .sh files for the cams?

There is no softcam plugin in the list.

I found one already installed in the image called softcam setup but couldn't see any way for it to work so I tried uninstalling it thinking I would then re-install it but it does not come up in the available plugins on green button.

Now I am well and truly stumped.

Hi is the image you have on is pli updated version or the original version if you have the original one replace it with the updated one go to plugin then press green button for further plugins you can download softcam there then go to setup for setting cam***
 
Would it be worth re-flashing?

Hi i personally would prefer to have gemini or lt images on because they are solid images this is pli first attempt at 7025 it will take them time to get to gemini standard***
 
I was changing from lt as it would only clear on mgcam and it had got to the stage where it was freezing every 5 mins. Thought a new image might do the trick
