## Used Hardware

I use the following hardware:

*   PCTV NanoStick 73e SE (solo) [http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_nano_Stick_%2873e%29](http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_nano_Stick_%2873e%29)
*   smargo smartreader + [https://www.cardwriter.nl/nl/pd1184675949.htm](https://www.cardwriter.nl/nl/pd1184675949.htm)
*   Digitenne smartcard
*   1.6GHz P4 512MB ram

## testing the DVB-T receiver

### Check device nodes

First check if the device nodes of the DVB-T receiver are present:

```
$ ls -l /dev/dvb/adapter0/*
crw-rw---- 1 root video 212, 4 May 15 10:21 /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 212, 5 May 15 10:21 /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 212, 3 May 15 10:21 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 212, 7 May 15 10:21 /dev/dvb/adapter0/net0

```

### Testing the DVB-T receiver with vlc

Now use VLC to test the receiver:

```
# pacman -S vlc

```

```
$vlc
Media -> Open Capture device,
Capture mode : DVB
Adapter card to tune: /dev/dvb/adapter0
DVB type: DVB-T
Transponder / multiplex frequency: 722000
Bandwidth: auto => play

```

Now VLC will scan all channels, and after 10 minutes the first moving image should appear on the screen.

If you do not have permission to open /dev/dvb/adapter0 then vlc will issue the next errors:

```
dvb access error: FrontEndOpen: opening device failed (Permission denied)
main input error: open of `dvb://frequency=0000' failed: (null)

```

In that case add yourself to the group "video", and logout and login:

```
# usermod -a -G video yourusername

```

### Test the DVB-T receiver with tzap and mplayer

#### Install mplayer and tzap

First install mplayer and tzap (part of linuxtv-dvb-apps)

```
# pacman -S linuxtv-dvb-apps mplayer

```

#### Scan channels

Now scan the digitenne channels in the Netherlands:

```
$ mkdir ~/.tzap
$ scan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/nl-All -o zap | tee ~/.tzap/channels.conf
scanning /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/nl-All
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'

```

Here we can see Digitenne uses 4 transports to broadcast all the channels. This means it's possible to record all Digitenne channels with only 4 DVB-T receivers. The receiver is in range of 3 transmitters for Nederland 1, 2 and 3, the rest of the channels is received once:

```
Transport 474 MHz, 618 Mhz, 722 MHz, 
Nederland 1
Nederland 2
Nederland 3
TV Rijnmond / TV Noord-Holland / TV West

```

```
Transport 498 MHz:
Veronica/Disney XD
RTL 8
Een
Ketnet/Canvas
Nickelodeon/TeenNick
Discovery Channel
Eurosport
Private Spice

```

```
Transport 762MHz:
Eredivisie Live 1
Eredivisie 2/AT5
KinderNet/ComedyCentral
MTV
Animal Planet
CNN
BBC Entertainment
NGC:

```

```
Transport 818 MHz:
RTL 4
RTL 5
RTL 7
SBS 6
NET 5

```

#### Tune the DVB-T receiver

Now the tuner can be set to Nederland 1

```
$ tzap -a 0 -r 'Nederland 1'
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
reading channels from file '/home/cedric/.tzap/channels.conf'

```

#### Play the captured datastream

Use another terminal to start mplayer. After a few seconds Nederland 1 should appear on the screen.

```

## Cardreader

### Plugin cardreader

After the Smargo smartreader+ is inserted in the PC, dmesg should show a new serial port (ttyUSB0) is added:

```
$ dmesg

### Install oscam from aur

[https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45646](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45646)

```
# pacman -S cmake
$ wget [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/oscam/oscam.tar.gz](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/oscam/oscam.tar.gz)
$ tar -xf oscam.tar.gz 
$ cd oscam
$ makepkg
# pacman -U oscam-1.00-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

```

### Oscam configuration

Oscam uses the following configuration files:

#### /etc/oscam/oscam.conf

```
# main configuration
[global]
nice	      = -1
WaitForCards  = 1

# logging
pidfile	      = /var/run/oscam.pid
logfile	      = /var/log/oscam/oscam.log
usrfile	      = /var/log/oscam/oscamuser.log
cwlogdir      = /var/log/oscam/cw

# monitor
[monitor]
port	      = 8988
aulow	      = 120
monlevel      = 1

# web interface
[webif]
httpport       = 8888
httpuser       = myusername
httppwd        = mypassword
httpallowed    = 192.168.31.201

# protocols

[newcamd]
key            = 000102030405060708090A0B0C0D
port           = 15050@0B00:0E030

```

#### /etc/oscam/oscam.server

```
# reader configuration

[reader]
label    = reader1
protocol = mouse
detect   = CD
device   = /dev/ttyUSB0
group    = 1
emmcache = 1,3,2
services = services1
caid     = 0B00
mhz      = 500
cardmhz  = 500

```

#### /etc/oscam/oscam.services

```
# definition of services 
#
# format:
# [name]
# caid=CAID[,CAID]...
# provid = provider ID[,provider ID]...
# srvid = service ID[,service ID]...

[services1]
caid=0B00
provid=0E030
srvid=

```

#### /etc/oscam/oscam.user

```
# user configuration

[account]
user       = user1
pwd        = password1
monlevel   = 0
uniq       = 0
group      = 1
au         = 1
ident 	   = 0B00:0E030
caid       = 0B00

# user for group 2 with monitor access, AU enabled

#[account]
user       = user2
pwd        = password2
monlevel   = 0
uniq       = 0
group      = 1
au         = 1
ident 	   = 0B00:0E030
caid       = 0B00

```

Now create the directory where oscam can log to:

```
# mkdir /var/log/oscam

```

### Starting Oscam

```
# /etc/rc.d/oscam start

```

This should yield the following messages in /var/log/oscam.log:

```

## Softcam (sasc-ng)

Sasc-ng and sascng-kernel26-patch are only needed for mythtv. VDR uses vdr-plugin-sc-hg instead.

### Install sasc-ng from aur

First you need to install sascng-kernel26-patch: [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=48512](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=48512)

```
$ wget [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sascng-kernel26-patch/sascng-kernel26-patch.tar.gz](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sascng-kernel26-patch/sascng-kernel26-patch.tar.gz)
$ tar -xf sascng-kernel26-patch.tar.gz 
$ cd sasc-ng-kernel26-patch/
$ makepkg
# pacman -U sascng-kernel26-patch-2.6.39-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz

```

Then install sasc-ng: [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27885](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27885)

```
# pacman -S mercurial
$ wget [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/open-sasc-ng/open-sasc-ng.tar.gz](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/open-sasc-ng/open-sasc-ng.tar.gz)
$ tar -xf open-sasc-ng.tar.gz
$ cd open-sasc-ng
$ makepkg
# pacman -U open-sasc-ng-560-4-i686.pkg.tar.xz

```

### Configure Sasc-ng

#### /etc/conf.d/sasc-ng

```
# Use -j <real>:<virtual> to link adapters
SASCNG_ARGS="-j 0:1"
DVBLOOPBACK_ARGS="num_adapters=1"
LOGDIR="/var/log/"
CAMDIR=/etc/camdir

```

#### /etc/camdir/cardclient.conf

```
# Comment lines can start with # or ;
#
# every client line starts with the client name, followed by some arguments:
# 'hostname' is the name of the server
# 'port'     is the port on the server
# 'emm'      is a flag to allow EMM transfers to the server
#            (0=disabled 1=enabled)
# 'caid'     (optional) caid on which this client should work
# 'mask'     (optional) mask for caid e.g. caid=1700 mask=FF00 would allow
#            anything between 1700 & 17FF.
#            Default is 1700 & FF00\. If only caid is given mask is FFFF.
#            You may give multiple caid/mask values comma separated
#            (e.g. 1702,1722,0d0c/ff00).
# 'username' is the login username
# 'password' is the login password
#
# newcamd client
# 'cfgkey' is the config key (28bytes)
newcamd:localhost:15050:1/0B00/FF00:user2:password2:000102030405060708090A0B0C0D

```

#### /etc/rc.d/sasc-ng

When the built-in logging is used it can happen that sasc-ng uses 100% CPU. Then it can only be killed by

```
# killall -s 16 sasc-ng. 

```

Disable therefore the internal logging like this: Now the messages of sasc-ng end up in /var/log/everything.log

```
 #!/bin/bash

         echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}" >&2
         exit 1
 esac

```

### Starting Sasc-ng

```
# /etc/rc.d/sasc-ng start

```

This yields the following messages in dmesg:

```

### Expanding for 2 or more DVB-T tuners

For 2 tuners edit /etc/conf.d/sasc-ng:

```
# Use -j <real>:<virtual> to link adapters
#for 2 tuners
SASCNG_ARGS="-j 0:2 -j 1:3"
DVBLOOPBACK_ARGS="num_adapters=2"
LOGDIR="/var/log/"
CAMDIR=/etc/camdir

```

This will create 2 virtual adapters (adapter 2 and 3):

```
$ ls -l /dev/dvb/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Jul 11 11:01 adapter0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Jul 11 11:01 adapter1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 280 Jul 11 11:01 adapter2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 280 Jul 11 11:01 adapter3

```

For 3 tuners edit /etc/conf.d/sasc-ng:

```
# Use -j <real>:<virtual> to link adapters
#for 3 tuners
SASCNG_ARGS="-j 0:3 -j 1:4 -j 2:5"
DVBLOOPBACK_ARGS="num_adapters=3"
LOGDIR="/var/log/"
CAMDIR=/etc/camdir

```

This will create 3 virtual adapters (adapter 3, 4 and 5):

```
$ ls -l /dev/dvb/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Jul 11 11:01 adapter0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Jul 11 11:01 adapter1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Jul 11 11:01 adapter2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 280 Jul 11 11:01 adapter3
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 280 Jul 11 11:01 adapter4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 280 Jul 11 11:01 adapter5

```

## VDR Integration

### VDR installation

First install VDR as described here: [VDR#Installation](/index.php/VDR#Installation "VDR")

### install vdr-plugin-sc-hg from aur

```
$ wget [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vd/vdr-plugin-sc-hg/vdr-plugin-sc-hg.tar.gz](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vd/vdr-plugin-sc-hg/vdr-plugin-sc-hg.tar.gz)
$ tar -xf vdr-plugin-sc-hg.tar.gz
$ cd vdr-plugin-sc-hg
# pacman -U vdr-plugin-sc-hg-574-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

```

### VDR - oscam connection

First create the directory to store the configuration files:

```
# mkdir /var/lib/vdr/plugins/sc
# chown vdr /var/lib/vdr/plugins/sc

```

#### /var/lib/vdr/plugins/sc/cardclient.conf

```
# Comment lines can start with # or ;
#
# every client line starts with the client name, followed by some arguments:
# 'hostname' is the name of the server
# 'port'     is the port on the server
# 'emm'      is a flag to allow EMM transfers to the server
#            (0=disabled 1=enabled)
# 'caid'     (optional) caid on which this client should work
# 'mask'     (optional) mask for caid e.g. caid=1700 mask=FF00 would allow
#            anything between 1700 & 17FF.
#            Default is 1700 & FF00\. If only caid is given mask is FFFF.
#            You may give multiple caid/mask values comma separated
#            (e.g. 1702,1722,0d0c/ff00).
# 'username' is the login username
# 'password' is the login password
#
# newcamd client
# 'cfgkey' is the config key (28bytes)
newcamd:localhost:15050:1/0B00/FF00:user2:password2:000102030405060708090A0B0C0D

```

Now start oscam and vdr:

```
# /etc/rc.d/oscam start
# /etc/rc.d/vdr start

```

This should yield the following lines in /var/log/everything.log, only the lines for the softcam plugin are shown:

### Watch TV

First (re)start oscam and vdr, so it picks up the new channel configuration:

```
#/etc/rc.d/oscam restart
#/etc/rc.d/vdr restart

```

Now you can start the frontend. This has to be done as the same user that started the X server:

```
$ vdr-sxfe

```

The first time you try to watch an encrypted channel, it may take up to 15 minutes for vdr to start asking keys from oscam. This is only seen the first time, the second time vdr is started, it takes a few seconds to start playing.
