All about cccam

[tech1010]

Here i wish to share very basic information about cccam which every new user wishes especially when there is no near and dear for helping.

CCcam.cfg ---> /var/etc -----> Configuration file, where we set theClients and Friends and additional configuration.
CCcam.bin ---> /var/bin -----> This is the binary file ( like the .exe in windows ) This file should have 755 permission. (Right click in this file with your preferred FTP client and click set attributes). Otherwise CCcam will not start
CCcam.prio ---> /var/etc -----> This file is where you can set your priority cards or ignore any cards ( not necessarily needed to run CCcam)
CCcam.channelinfo ---> /var/etc -----> In this file you can put the channel info for the web interface, so you will see which channel is decoding CCcam instead of seeing the sid ( not necessarily needed to run CCcam )
CCcam.providers ---> /var/etc -----> In this file you can put the provider info for the web interface, so you will see which package is decoding CCcam instead of seeing the caid ( not necessarily needed to run CCcam)
SoftCam.Key ---> /var/keys -----> In this file you will find keys to open channel trough keys instead through network ( not necessarily needed to run CCcam )
AutoRoll.Key ---> /var/keys ----> this file will have the next key the provider will have and will use the next automatically ( not necessarily needed to run CCcam )
constant.cw ---> /var/keys ----> In this file you will find constant keys to open channel through keys instead through network ( not necessarily needed to run CCcam )
Other files created by CCcam itself while running
warnings.txt ---> /tmp ----> Here youwill find attempted logins to CCcam without your authorization , this filewill be shown only if you have this line in CCcam.cfg **** log warnings : /tmp/warnings.txt ****, be careful with this file as if you enable it and you have a lot of warnings you will run out of memory in your box
ecm.info ---> /tmp ----> this file will show you information about the encoding of the channel you are

In addition an information for the newer version of cccam (ver 2.30):

Many cccam-users are still using 2.011.
When you change something (cfg or prio) when cccam in running you have to do a cam-reset to enable the changes.
In ver 2.30 this is not necessary. Any change is updated directly because the new version is checking cfg and prio permanently.

Is that permanently checking of CFg and Prio file makes processing slow or no effect

Nearly no effect. I can't see any performance change.

It's like a prozessor interrupt-jump in assembler:

Checking if anything has changed. If not - Return from interrupt (normal working).
If yes, enable new cfg and/or prio.

You can check this in the cccam-webinterface.

Re: All about cccam

at my position, there is a difference in the performance between 2.30 and < 2.30.

I revertet to 2.0.11

The later versions must be better. I use maxvar with 2 cccams. Some stations only open on later version.

Do they open with emu, card or CS?

CS would be surprising for me.

As far as I know, this is not possible.
Only possibility that I see is not with cs but emu, with a few coding systems, if settings are not proper.

It is possible if you use the original cards.
The newer cccam versions have a bit modified card management that they work with the new tunneled-system cards.
