softcam not working?

[thijs]

just because they are opening on different models is no garantee with technomate that it's opening on all models
the 5402+6902+7102 are still waiting for a patch to open c.nl and the 6000series+7100 still have to go to last years patch to open c.nl and can't open bulsat then so we will have to wait and see what Technomate52 says is open on his tm if nothing is open then there is something else wrong

Hi. thijs i agree with you. Problem is we dont know what channels , if any, are opened. It could also be an alignment problem. I know this from my experience with some channels. I would get the SCRAMBLED message then when i nudged the motor slightly the picture would appear. This is the reason why when looking for satellites you should always look fot FTA channels first. Regards.

try this patch mate I cant check it as dont have that box but to-days softcam is working ok.patch is for NON super only.
if you press "mute" then "exit on the hand set this will bring up the cas menu check that the 1st 30 odd slots are filled in.if not the softcam has not loaded.(check this before you change the patch)

hi thijs my FTA channels work just the $ sign ones dont work so I dont know whats wrong

Thanks in advance

[thijs]

give the patch that Dick b posted a go and then load the latest softcam from the softcam section and see if you can get any thing cleared maybe the other patch is a dud i don't think you will clear boomerang or cartoon network with that patch

the c+ NL channels had a keychange and so require the new softcam dated today

Hi. Why dont you try to load the Caanal Digital keys(provider id 0622) manually in the CAS menu just to see if they work. Or before you do that go into the CAS menu and look for IRDETO provider id 0622 and see if the softcam has loaded latest keys. If you require help let us know. Regards.

Hi Nutsandbolts could you explain more about this I am sort of lost

any advice appreciated

Hi. Basically the CAS and BISS menu is where the keys are stored to unscarmble the channels. The CAS menu will contain latest original keys for certain providers. The BISS menu will contain keys for single channels as and when they are available. To enter the CAS/BISS menus you need to do the following using your remote:
1) Press MENU key.
2)Enter PIN ( usually 0000).
3) At MAIN menu tab down to SYSTEM INFORMATION and press ENTER.
4)If your receiver has been patched you should see the CAS MENU and BISS MENU options at the bottom. This menu will also tell what patch you currently have - it will tell you under S/W. Nb if you dont see the CAS and BISS menu options it means that either there is no patch or it is turned off. (to turn patch on you need to press 2004 with your remote and if it works you will see the CASS and BISS menus appearing on the bottom).

5) If you have CASS menu just press enter to go into menu.
6) When in CASS menu you will see boxes containing info regarding providers and keys etc. When you load a softcam it will update these boxes with new keys for providers specified within the softcam. You can also enter the keys yourself manually if you want but it takes time. I always enter the keys manually because i like to mess around. I would suggest that you have a go at trying to get into your CAS menu and lets us know if you have a box with keys for CANAAL DIGITAL - it will have the following details :
CAS IRDETO/BETACRYPT
IDENT C+NL (062200)
01 xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
51 xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx


The 01 and 51 are the key indexes and the xx are the actual keys.

Have a go and let us know what you find. Then i be able to tell you how to change the keys. Regards.

If cas/biss menu is active just press mute then exit and it will take you directly to the encryption for that channel.
Enter manually if needed using remote.

Hi. I tried the MUTE/EXIT option on my TM5400 SUPER but did not work thats why i suggested using the menu options. Maybe it works for different models. Regards.
