2 cards with the same caid ?

[alfredolo2]

It is possible to use 2 original cards with oscam and the same caid ?
For example 1 with sports and 1 with movies ?

Re: 2 cards with the same caid ?

I haven't heard that someone is using it that way, since most of the receivers are using one CI slot at a time.
Maybe it is unless card is married with the rec like in new N*gra and ND'S systems...
Like to hear the same answer from some users who have real server cards not virtual ones???

You could if you utilise an oscam.services file. Here you can list channel 'services' by srvid and group them into titles/headings.

From here you can tell OSCam which services each card has according to these titles/headings in the oscam.services file. In the [reader] section of oscam.server you'd use the 'services =' function and point it to the appropriate title/headings you made in oscam.services.

Yes, you can do it, but configuration depends entirely on what you want to do: maybe load balancing ?

The objective is save some money.
There are some time limited cards that offers you a vision to some channels. Original cards, of couse. That cards are limited as channels numbers.
For example :
- card 1 : entertainment channels + sports (9 months)
- card 2 : kids channels + movies (9 months)
This combination i about 70% cheaper than a single card with all (entertainment , kids, sports, movies)
