I am using C line on my Dreambox 500s but I got myself an original IRDETO smart card for ART on Nilesat. This is what I did:-
1. I removed the C line with DCC.
2. I put in the original smart card.
3. NOTHING on my screen; I mean the encrypted channels do NOT open!
Do I have to make any changes in the setup? My current settings are:-
Software setup :
Channel= Default
Provider=Default
Default Softcam= CCcam-2.1.4
Cardserver=cardserver
XAuto reconnect cahandler(Checked)
Somebody suggested that I add the following two lines to Cccam.cfg.
CAMKEY : /dev/sci0
TRY ALL CHIDS : /dev/sci0
Not knowing why I was supposed to do it, I did the following anyway:-
1. Copy pasted those two lines in my var>etc> cccam.cfg
2. Cardserver=None
3. Saved the settings and restarted
4. RESULT: Now , when I press the card info (MENU>SETUP>SOFTCAM SETUP>CARD INFO),that is the yellow key, I DO GET the detailed card info like my card number and many explanatory lines like IRDETO etc. Also by pressing INFO on the channel the GREEN LIGHT under I (irdeto) comes on!
5. PROBLEM: Nothing on the screen , no channel opens !!
The original IRDETO smart card for ART package (Nilesat) works fine with my Vivax 505, so the card is definitely OK, right? Now, what do I do to my DM500s to make it work with this card?!
I did read the tutorial about running sky card on DM500. The article started pretty good and easy to follow, till there was a sudden jump from amateur reader to expert reader & I lost it!
Could someone spare a few minutes to guide me plz?
Thanx

Thanx for the suggestion, but I already tried that (mentioned above); I guess the idea didn't work! I'll now change my image from Pli-Jade to Gemini and see what happens. Will update the forum about it.
