Hi drhhitime,
I also have a 7000S and it has a card reader and also a slot for a CI Cam.
Have you tried the obvious thing of inserting an Irdeto CAM and then your Showtime smartcard, before trying the emus?
Also, is there another card in Irdeto? This might cause clashes.
If you want to use only emus, then CCcam 2.0.8 or MgCamd 1.30 might help.

Edit: I see in your profile that you have Sky Italia. If it is an official smartcard, then I would appreciate it if you can recommend a shop that can sell this card and a receiver, as I haven't had any luck so far. Thanks

CCcam 2.0.8 might help.
Do you have a flash USB or you are using only the internal memory?
W/O a USB flash, you might run into memory problems.

Have you seen my editted post above?

From the blue button and then choose install after download.
Which way did you insert the card? The chip should be DOWN for the embedded cam.

done that with mgcamd and with ccam 2.05 and tried in both slots with chip down no luck

USB Flash Memory?

Suggest to use one. They are very cheap and you can have as many emus as you want and also other useful plugins.
I don't have any problem with reading legitimate cards now that I have it.
(Before that I used the CI CAm, but I can't say for sure if this can help with your case, but worth trying).

No need for USB. Use the Softcam Scam it works for Showtime no problem

Hey prwoolfall,

I tried loading scam in my Dreambox 7000 as you suggested in another thread, but it didn't work.

I found a config file for scam inside the /var/scam folder...

# scam host
#/net/ecm_server/foobar/port=4321
#/net/ecm_server/foobar/pass=passwort

# scam client
#/net/ecm_client/foobar/host=192.168.0.xxx
#/net/ecm_client/foobar/port=4321
#/net/ecm_client/foobar/pass=passwort

# newcamd connect
#/net/newcamd/foo/host=bla.dyndns.org
#/net/newcamd/foo/port=1234
#/net/newcamd/foo/user=username
#/net/newcamd/foo/pass=password
#/net/newcamd/foo/key=1234567890123456789012345678

Can you suggest how to configure it for Multichoice Africa Irdeto 2 card (the card is irdeto v2 and the version of irdeto 2 is also 2 - if you understand my meaning).

Any help is appreciated!

The config you refer to is for card sharing.

As I previously posted all you need for the Showtime card is SCAM with your favourite software. PLS, Gemini etc. I use Gemini and it works no problem.

Cannot be of any further help! Sorry.
