- Thread starter steevo88
- Start date
managed to get a softcam working but not the cline, on mine there is a softcam 1 and a softcam 2 even though im using a single tuner box (zgemma star s)im guessing these are for twin tuner setup, thing is i still cant get my line to work, works perfectly on my dreambox, just tried it now, there is a file in var/keys but it says ccam.cfg.example but my dreambox one says cccam.cfg and thats where i enter it and it works (on dreambox), do i need to edit the title of of the config file to (cccam.cfg) same as dreambox when i edit it?
Both run enigma 2 and mipsel Emus so what works on a Dreambox works on the Zgemma.
What Image are you running and what CCcam Version ?`

What version of CCcam are you using mate?, 2.30 worked well for me. Also i think the CCcam.cfg is case sensitive. I know on openATV 5.1 the CCcam.cfg goes into the /etc/ folder i have attached a screen shot. Let us know how you get on mate.

Only select your cccam in softcam 1 if you se lect both your line won't clear leave softcam 2 blank.

really appreciate all the replies gents, im running a openatv 5.1 mate and ccam 2.3.0, ferret i know they are very similar but the way you enter these details seems different probably something im missing, on the dreambox i just go to etc>cccam.cfg and edit it into there and it works. on the zgemma ive been told you enter it in usr>keys but the file there is labelled (cccam.cfg.sample_230) i still edit this same way as dreambox but no channels show, also if i look in the etc folder where the file is originally located and its labelled (cccam_2.3.0.emu) there is not file labelled cccam.cfg as on dreambox, hope this explains it better
As for the final point, on cam 1 and cam 2 i did only activate cam 1 thanks for the heads up.

Mine worked like a charm in the /etc/ folder, maybe it works in both ?, i'm now using mgcamd for both N and C lines.
Depends on your image
Only OpenATV uses usr/keys for the CCcam.cfg all other image use etc

Well know fact its usr/keys on OpenATV your pic does not show us the image your using.
