Packages and rates of card sharing Utgard.tv: CCCam, Newcamd, OSCam

Card sharing is a technology that allows multiple users to simultaneously decrypt encrypted satellite channels through a single server. The Utgard.tv service offers several tariff packages supporting the CCCam, Newcamd, and OSCam protocols, tailored to different needs: from a single receiver to a multi-room setup with several devices.

Below is a detailed breakdown of all available tariffs, their technical specifications, and practical differences that will help make the right choice.

What are the CCCam, Newcamd, and OSCam protocols

Before choosing a package, it is important to understand the differences between the protocols — this determines compatibility with your receiver.

CCCam

CCCam is one of the most widely used card sharing protocols. It is supported by the overwhelming majority of satellite receivers based on Linux: Dreambox, VU+, Xtrend, Gigablue, and others. Configuration involves entering a line likeC: server port login password in the fileCCcam.cfg. The protocol is stable and has proven itself over long distances (ping up to 100–150 ms), which is important when connecting from CIS countries to European servers.

Newcamd

Newcamd is an older protocol, but it is still relevant for receivers with limited firmware. It uses encryption based on the DES key, which provides an additional level of connection security. It is configured through the filenewcamd.conf specifying the host, port, login, password, and DES key. Suitable for Formuler devices, some models of Openbox, and MAG.

OSCam

OSCam (Open Source Conditional Access Module) is the most flexible and functional of the three protocols. It supports multiple CAS systems (Conax, Viaccess, Nagravision, Irdeto, and others) simultaneously, can balance the load between servers, and automatically switch to a backup server in case of connection loss. Recommended for experienced users and those who use multiple receivers. It is configured through the filesoscam.server andoscam.user.

Overview of Utgard.tv tariff packages

The Utgard.tv service offers several subscription levels. Each tariff is designed for a specific usage scenario and the number of simultaneous connections.

Basic Package

Designed for one receiver with one active connection. Supports all three protocols — CCCam, Newcamd, and OSCam. The package includes basic satellite broadcasting packages: channels Hotbird 13°E, Astra 19.2°E, and Sirius 4.8°E. Popular Polish, German, Czech, and Ukrainian channels are available in standard and HD quality. Server response time is no more than 50 ms for users from Central and Eastern Europe.

This tariff is suitable if you have one television with a receiver in the living room and do not plan to connect additional devices.

Standard Package

Designed for two simultaneous connections. Relevant for homes with two receivers or for users who watch different channels simultaneously. The package is expanded with additional packages: Cyfra+, Canal+ Poland, HD+ Germany. Includes channels in Full HD and Ultra HD resolution (where broadcasting is available in these formats).

Example of use: the receiver in the living room watches Canal+ Cinema while the children's channel Mini Mini is on in the bedroom — both connections work simultaneously without quality degradation.

Extended Package

Up to four simultaneous connections. Additionally includes packages Sky Deutschland, ORF-Sat, and some channels from the Viasat platform. Suitable for small guest houses, offices with multiple televisions, or families where each member has their own receiver.

Technically: with four simultaneous connections, the Utgard.tv server uses a prioritization mechanism — each decryption request is processed separately, without competition between sessions. This eliminates freezes and artifacts during peak load.

Premium Package

Maximum tariff — up to eight simultaneous connections. Covers all available packages, including specialized sports channels (Eleven Sports, Canal+ Sport), movie channels, and exclusive content. Priority support: response within 2 hours, dedicated technical specialist for resolving connection issues.

This tariff is chosen by small hotels, hostels, and users with an extensive home infrastructure — for example, when the satellite system serves 5–8 premises simultaneously.

Comparative table of packages

To simplify the choice, below are the key characteristics of each tariff:

• Basic — 1 connection, CCCam/Newcamd/OSCam, basic packages (Hotbird, Astra, Sirius)
• Standard — 2 connections, CCCam/Newcamd/OSCam, + Cyfra+, Canal+ Poland, HD+
• Extended — 4 connections, all protocols, + Sky Deutschland, ORF-Sat, Viasat
• Premium — 8 connections, all protocols, full channel set, priority support

How to choose the right tariff

Determine the number of receivers

One receiver — the "Basic" package is sufficient. If there are two televisions with receivers in the house and family members are watching different channels simultaneously — at least "Standard" is needed. The rule is simple: the number of simultaneous connections must match the maximum number of receivers working at the same time.

Consider the required channels

If you are only interested in basic Polish or German channels — the "Basic" package is enough. To access paid sports content Canal+ Sport or German HD+ at least "Standard" is required. Football from Eleven Sports — only in "Premium".

Protocol — for your receiver

Before purchasing, check which protocols your receiver supports:

• Dreambox DM900 / DM920 — supports CCCam, Newcamd, and OSCam via EMU plugin
• VU+ Duo4K / Uno4K — CCCam and OSCam via Beyonwiz or OpenATV Image
• Openbox S3 / S4 — Newcamd via built-in client
• MAG 520 / 522 — only Newcamd via external client

If your receiver supports multiple protocols, it is recommended to choose OSCam — it provides a more stable connection and can automatically switch between servers during unstable internet.

Technical requirements for connection

Internet speed

Card sharing transmits control words (Control Words) in small data packets — in fact, a stable channel of 512 kbps is sufficient for one connection. The key parameter is stability, not speed. The ping to the Utgard.tv server should not exceed 200 ms; at higher values, there may be brief freezes in the picture at the moment of changing the control word (every 8–12 seconds for most packages).

Static IP address

For stable operation, a static IP is recommended. When using a dynamic IP, it is necessary to set up a DDNS service (for example, No-IP or DynDNS) and specify the host in the client configuration. Utgard.tv supports both options.

Port forwarding on the router

When using CCCam, the standard port is 12000 (can be changed in the personal account). For Newcamd — port 525. If the receiver is behind NAT, port forwarding to the local IP of the receiver must be configured on the router. In most home routers, this is done through the "Virtual Servers" or "Port Forwarding" section.

Testing period and guarantees

Utgard.tv provides a free trial period to check compatibility with your equipment and signal quality in your region. The test allows you to ensure that the required channels are decrypted correctly and that the ping to the server is within acceptable values.

After payment, the tariff is activated instantly — connection data (host, port, login, password) is displayed in the personal account. If technical problems arise within the first 72 hours, support conducts diagnostics and, if necessary, issues a full refund.

Payment and subscription terms

Packages are available in several duration options: 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. The longer the period — the lower the cost per month. For example, an annual subscription to the "Standard" package costs about half as much as twelve separate monthly payments.

Bank cards (Visa, Mastercard), cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, USDT), and a number of electronic wallets are accepted. Payment is processed automatically — subscription renewal, tariff change, and connection management are available through the personal account without contacting support.

Frequently asked questions about packages

Can I change the tariff in the middle of the period?

Yes. When changing to a higher tariff, the system calculates the additional payment proportionally to the remaining days. When switching to a lower tariff — the remainder is credited to the balance of the personal account.

What happens when the subscription expires?

7 days and 1 day before the subscription ends, a notification is sent to the email. After the expiration, access is automatically suspended — connection data is saved in the personal account for 30 days, so when renewing, you won't have to set up the receiver again.

Does the service work with receivers based on Android?

Yes, through client applications CCcam Client or OSCam Manager for Android. Receivers Formuler Z8, Zgemma H9S, and similar support protocols through built-in Enigma2 or third-party plugins.

Which satellites are supported?

Utgard.tv works with packages on the Hotbird 13°E, Astra 19.2°E, Astra 23.5°E, Thor/Intelsat 0.8°W, and Sirius 4.8°E satellites. A complete list of channels for each satellite is available in the "Channels" section on the website.

Conclusion: which package to choose

For one receiver and viewing basic packages — the "Basic" tariff fully meets the needs. For a family with two or three televisions and interest in sports or movie content — "Standard" or "Extended". If coverage for a large house, mini-hotel, or office is required — "Premium" with eight connections and priority support.

Start with a trial period, ensure the stability of the connection and compatibility with your equipment — and only after that choose the duration of the subscription.
