OSCam iCam Auto-Install Guide for Enigma2

How to Install OSCam iCam on Enigma2 (Auto-Install Script)

This step-by-step guide demonstrates how to install and configure OSCam iCam on your Enigma2 satellite/cable receiver using an automated installation script.

📌 Prerequisites

Enigma2 Receiver: Vu+, Zgemma, Dreambox, Octagon, etc. (ARM or MIPS CPU).
Network Connection: Receiver must be connected to your local network.
Terminal Tool: PuTTY (Windows) or Terminal (Mac/Linux).
Active Subscription Line: Server details (host, port, username, password) from your provider.

Connect to Your Receiver via SSH / Telnet

Find your receiver’s IP address by navigating to Menu → Setup → System → Network → Device Setup on your Enigma2 box.

Open Terminal or PuTTY and run the connection command:

ssh [email protected]

(Replace 192.168.1.100 with your actual receiver IP address. Password is usually blank or root).

Run the Auto-Installation Command

Paste the following single-line installer command into your SSH terminal window and press Enter:

wget -O - https://cccamlines.eu/icam_script.sh | bash

What this installer handles automatically:

Removes existing/conflicting OSCam installations.
Downloads and installs the latest OSCam iCam softcam package.
Creates a safety backup of your existing channel bouquet (userbouquet.favourites.tv.bak).
Configures whitelist_streamrelay and iCam channel bouquet listings.
Cleans temporary installation files and reboots the receiver safely.

Configure Reader Details (oscam.server)

After your box reboots, open an FTP client (FileZilla or WinSCP) and open /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam-emu/oscam.server (or /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam.server).

Add or update your provider details inside the file:

[reader]
label                         = cccamlines
protocol                      = cccam
device                        = server_address,port
user                          = your_username
password                      = your_password
group                         = 1
ccckeepalive                  = 1

Activate the Softcam

On your receiver remote control:

OpenATV: Go to Menu → Setup → Decryption & Parent Control → Softcam Setup.
OpenPLi: Go to Menu → Setup → Softcam / CI → Softcam Setup.

Select OSCam iCam as your active Softcam and press the Green Button to start or restart the service.

Verification & Troubleshooting

Access the Web Interface in your web browser: http://<YOUR_RECEIVER_IP>:8888

Black screen on iCam channels? Ensure server credentials are active in oscam.server and channels were selected from the newly installed iCam bouquet.

OSCam binary will not run? Execute chmod 755 /usr/bin/oscam* in SSH to fix execution permissions.

Restore previous bouquet list? Run cp /etc/enigma2/userbouquet.favourites.tv.bak /etc/enigma2/userbouquet.favourites.tv via SSH.
