Dear Taapat and Respected Members,

I have used Alternative SoftCam Manager in Spark and DreamBox OpenPli, OpenATV, OpenESi etc versions. It is so fast, so smooth, and easy to replace latest files and cams.

Unfortunately there is no such type of thing in deb version.

It would be honoured to have deb version of Alternative SoftCam Manager for DreamBox DM520, 900 and 920.

Hi,
I don't have a DreamBox so I don't support it. Sorry!
You can try simply copying the py files.
But I know that on DreamOS works differently for example timersm, so I assume that the plugin without a specific fix for DreamOS will not work.

Dear Taapat

Today I learned a method to convert ipk files to deb file.

Detailed Procedure is as below;

apt-get update
apt-get install tar binutils
mkdir /tmp/convert-ipk
cd /tmp/convert-ipk
ar -x enigma2-plugin-extensions-alternativesoftcammanager_3.0-r0.0_MIPS.ipk
[ -e debian-binary ] && rm debian-binary
rm .ipk
tar vxzf control.tar.gz -C ./
tar vxzf data.tar.gz -C ./
rm .tar.gz
mkdir DEBIAN
mv ./control ./DEBIAN
mv ./pre
./post ./DEBIAN
cd
cd /tmp
dpkg -b convert-ipk/ enigma2-plugin-extensions-name_version_architecture.deb
dpkg -i /tmp/
.deb
dpkg -i --force-overwrite /tmp/*.deb
reboot

Then after reboot, I found it in plugin menu. But when I opened it, Box crashed. HHere's log created by box
enigma2_crash_1588786809.log

Your crashlog does not contain any information.
Please add a usable crashlog.
But I already know what will be there. As I wrote earlier- for DreamOS need a specific fix for example for timers.
