no myth mate, but not advertised here in aus.

mostly used for advanced applications I heard.

I would buy RSA's unit, just that my centrelink cheque is already spent.

Default Anti-CS & Poxtel/Crapstar PVR units

Years ago my thoughts on possible anti-cs measures included restricting the number of distinctly separate ECM requests to the card over a given time period & it seems this has implemented.
So, my query is, how do the PVR models handle this, as the card could potentially receive multiple alternating requests from their legitimate box?

PS what the hell happened to the forum? is it archived anywhere or gone forever?

hey guys
excellent program,
what client are u guys runing though?
im having a problem with cccam where once a client connects and drops out the server needs to be restarted to allow it to connect again. These are with internal box's.

thanks in advance

Some help would be apreciated. What are the correct baud and bit rates etc for GW running through Bfxxx and season. AM getting irregular ATR.

If running through Vir-com, do these settings have to be identical to GW?

Can I use a Jaycar programer in a remote location (No set-top box) and make the BFxxx in ?


Regards
Mal..

9600 baud,n,8,1 realcom mode.
vircom must NOT be running, not even on system tray.
straight through cable, pin for pin.

no exceptions.


yes you can have a remote bfxx and physical phoenixcard reader with card.
Latency must be very good and ports forwarded etc.
And in this case realcom mode must be off, and tcp server mode selected.
A fun thing to play with actually,
after all it is what the device was designed for-remote serial devices...

Only problem is laptop has no serial and using usb-serial dongle which might cause a corrupted ATR.

Also im thinking the season card is not a season but a logger. More investigating....

ps. Does a season need both max232 and 74hc or is a max232 only needed?

The "74hc" is only required with a card reader as it creates an oscillator in combination with a crystal!
Seasons & "loggers" both usually use the max232, but a logger only needs to Transmit & a season must both Transmit & Receive.

If there is a schottky diode on your device then it is probably a season!

There is no schottky..

I think its only a logger as ther are only 2 pins from the db9 9 pin connected in the circuit. I have modified my logger as to the attached link but dont have a BAT 41 schottky diode to test and cant source one (at the moment) so I would like to know

1. Should I still receive the correct ATR response without the diode or is it parramount? Does it need to be in emulation mode to get the correct atr reply.

Have tried with ordinary signal diode (zeiner 1n4148) and still corrupted atr....

Cheers

just wack in a 470ohm resistor....or 330 or 390 etc etc

the schottky diode was sometimes needed for 4.1 cards in a phoenix, and relied on leakage to link tx/rx.

i use the resistor in all my seasons and dont have a problem.

Try it and look elsewhere for other issues if it doesnt work with the resistor.

I have tried several versions of tinyxp on a laptop with pII 266mhz and 128meg with very little success. Seems the new greywolf has constant drop outs and then stops working after about 5mins. Same results on a celeron 650mhz with 320meg of ram. I'm running a drambox and a humax. I know you have to have winxp of some version or greater. But what are the minimum specs that you are all running? Just trying to trouble shoot

hey guys
quick question,
will gwm revive a card(4.1 sponge) that missed a update in whilst running newcs?
or does it need to go back in the provider box?

cheers

After extensive testing I can say that the old greywolf can handle drop outs better than the new one. I can let the old greywolf run all day with constant drop outs on the humax, but running the latest version I find after 5mins it just stops working.. seems to keep receiving ecm and the such but it just all shuts down... Just some insight if the author is reading
