    Default DM500 update EMM without ECM's

    I have a DM500 clone that I am using to serve my HTPC. I am using NewCS and MGCamd on the DM500.

    Currently I have the DM500 tuned to a channel and set to send EMM's to my card but this also means that it is constantly sending ECM's as well to decode the channel that it's tuned to.

    Is there any way to get the DM500 to update the entitlements without being tuned to a channel/sending ECM's? I don't like the idea that the box is hitting the card 24/7 unnecessarily.

    Why don't you like the box hitting your card 24/7?

    Try putting your dreambox in standby, i *think* i've seen EMM's get sent even when in standby/not sending ECMs.

    Yes, easy.

    Change to one of the FTA channels like EXPO or TVSN. They're free to air so don't have ecm's but do send emm's. I just tried both those channels and both are sending emm's.
