Mgcamd to update sky card

Pre-requisites
White XlyCard originally paired in Xlybox
Box key generated and inserted into newcs.xml
newcs up and running in card server or dreambox.
Mgcamd to be installed on dreambox.
Omnikey card reader installed in server (or dreambox ?)


1. Install mgcamd 1.30a/b/c/d or 1.31 and mgcamd config on your dreambox
mg_cfg /var/keys
newcamd.list /var/keys
softcam.key /var/keys
Autoroll.key /var/keys
priority.list /var/keys
mgcamd.bin /var/bin



2. Check /var/keys/mg_cfg settings
A = 01
G = 03 (some people use 1)


3. Edit newcamd.list (or use B16MCC’s excellent config, newcs & .list generator)
CWS = yournewcsserverip your newcs port dummy1 dummy1
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 lan newcs


4. Add new user with webinterface to your newcs server or just
paste it to newcs.xml

dummy1
dummy1


on
off
off
0
access



5. Ensure newcs.xml has auto update (au) enabled
No
No
No


6. When your card entitlements need to be updated you
Switch default cam on your dreambox to mgcamd
(blue button followed by arrow left or right to find mgcamd, followed by OK when you've found it)


7. Force entitlement updates by tuning dreambox to a BSB channel you don't have access to with your local card eg Racing UK (some people have just used sky Sports 1)


8. Let dreambox and server run all night and then check via Newcs web interface to see if card entitlements are up to date (may take 3 days so patience is required!)
