SS2 , linux and cs

[josht5]

Hello everybody .

After reading a bit about the ss2 card i have come to the conclusion that the best way to use it is run it in a linux pc .
I had some encounters with Backtrack5 in the past and i like the way it works .
Now i would like to ask what do you guys think , any recomendations you might have .
Also having used it in a windows pc for a bit i noticed that the tuner is a bit weaker than a normal receiver , are there any workarounds that ?

hello,
I never tried the ss2 with linux, but I can confirm that with xp the signal from the dish is lower than the decoder (minus 30%). Many channels are not detected.

[HIDE-POSTS=1]Debian + Tvheadend + cccam

- Install Debian:

- Install the drivers from here:
_http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.ph...Device_Drivers
- Install the player from here:
_https://www.lonelycoder.com/tvheadend/
- Newer versions here:
_https://github.com/andoma/tvheadend

Here you will find how to set campt to work with cccam (camd.socket from cccam)

1 - in CCcam.cfg you need to have DVB API: 3
2 - you need to build cccam_ca.so
3 - copy cccam_ca.so to /usr/local/lib and give it 755 attribute
4 - start cccam with this command line : LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/cccam_ca.so /usr/local/bin/cccam
5 - in tvheadend/configuration/capmt Connections : check enable, /tmp/camd.socket at Camd.socket Filename, Port 9000



Very important : For good work first you need to start cccam and second start tvheadend.

script for start cccam

#!/bin/sh
CAMNAME="CCcam Server"
# end
# This method starts CCcam
start_cam ()
{
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/cccam_ca.so /usr/local/bin/cccam &
sleep 2
}
# This method stops CCcam
stop_cam ()
{
pkill cccam
}
case "$1" in
start)
echo "[SCRIPT] $1: $CAMNAME"
start_cam
;;
stop)
echo "[SCRIPT] $1: $CAMNAME"
stop_cam
;;
restart)
echo "Restaring $CAMNAME"
stop_cam
start_cam
;;
*)
"$0" stop
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
