AU

What is AU?!

AU stands for AutoUpdate and it's the procedure that extends the validity of your subscription card. Each card has a time limit, usually a month, after which it will stop decoding channels. AU informs the card to extend this time limit, and must be executed periodically, to allow you to watch the channels you subscribe for. If the procedure is not executed properly, the card does not receive the time extension, and your decoder will fail to unscramble the channels.

The satellite providers are using the AU procedure to serve notices to subscribers who have failed to pay their subscription fees. In such a case, a signal is sent to the card to reduce the validity. Blocking such a signal would allow you to continue watching until the original card limit has been reached.

How much AU?!

If you have several receivers, it's not necessary for all receivers to send updates to the card. It's sufficient for one receiver to execute AU in order to update the card, usually the one most commonly used. For the procedure to work, the receiver that is enabled to execute AU must be tuned to one of the subscribed channels.

AU-ready!

AU-ready means that OSCam has been successfully tested and confirmed to write the EMMs to the card, allowing the receivers to continue decoding. The table below lists the condition for different systems at OSCam-SB-0.99.4-trunk-2020 version. Many thanks to Alno for this! If your system is not yet AU-ready or implemented, then post EMM dumps of your card to the forums. Detailed information can be found in the OSCam log, if you start OSCam with the switch "-D64".

AU over CCcam

Many people still use CCcam as client, but unfortunately AU will not work with the CCcam protocol. For AU to work, you should set up OScam and CCcam to use CAMD3 protocol, with an L line in CCcam.cfg. The following is an example of two S02 cards which are updated by a CCcam client through the NewCamd protocol (N Line).

Warning: When using the NewCamd protocol, always set AU directed at a reader. Setting "au = 1" will not work properly!

HD+

Unfortunately, OSCam cannot update an HD+ card with a CCcam client, neither by NewCamd, nor by Camd3 protocols. If the server also runs a CCcam server, you can use it as a workaround.

"Direct connection" NOT OK:

CCcam client connected to OScam server through N-line or L-line.

"Indirect" OK:

CCcam client through C-line to CCcam server and CCcam server through N-Line to OSCam.

Unfortunately, I cannot explain why it works through this workaround. If you know why, please explain ;)
