Oscam.conf //free\\ | FHD |

: Intentional delay added before sending a CW from the cache to simulate card response times.

If you are running OSCam on a satellite receiver (like a VU+ or Dreambox), dvbapi allows the receiver to use the server's cards directly. : Set to 1 to enable.

The file is typically organized into bracketed blocks, each managing a specific part of the system: : Contains general parameters such as logging locations ( ), client timeouts, and temporary directories.

This is the "brain" of the file. It controls system-wide parameters like logging and performance priorities.

: Never leave httpallowed = 0.0.0.0-255.255.255.255 . Always confine access strictly to your local network subnet (e.g., 192.168.1.0-192.168.1.255 ). oscam.conf

: If OSCam fails to start, check /var/log/oscam.log or run oscam -d255 in the terminal.

: Defines where logs are saved (e.g., /var/log/oscam.log ). Setting to stdout allows watching logs in the console.

: Delays client login until all local card readers have finished initializing. 2. The [webif] Section

: Changes the system priority of the OSCam process. Setting this to -1 gives OSCam a higher CPU priority, reducing the chance of picture freezing during heavy system loads. : Intentional delay added before sending a CW

: Configures the monitoring port and access levels for external monitoring tools.

: Seconds a client can stay idle before being disconnected (0 to disable).

: Ensure oscam.conf has the correct system permissions (usually 0644 ) and is owned by the user running the OScam binary.

Once your system is stable, set disablelog = 1 to save SD card wear on devices like Raspberry Pi. The file is typically organized into bracketed blocks,

oscam.conf is always processed first. Modifying this file requires a restart of the OScam binary or a configuration reload via the WebIF (Web Interface) to apply changes. 2. Core Sections of oscam.conf

[webif] httpport = 8888 httpuser = oscamadmin httppwd = MySecurePass123 httprefresh = 5 httpallowed = 192.168.0.0-192.168.255.255 httpreadonly = 0

: On low-powered devices like a Raspberry Pi or old embedded routers, writing logs continuously to an SD card will cause wear and lag. Use a small maxlogsize and direct your lb_savepath to a RAM-disk structure like /tmp .

Newcamd works on a per-CAID basis. Each specific card or provider profile requires its own dedicated listening port.

: Keep parameter counts lean. OSCam loads defaults automatically for any parameter omitted from the configuration file. Do not clutter oscam.conf with hundreds of lines of default 0 or blank variables.
