Hi there,

Apologies for my errors but this is my first post here.....

Until now I have been using OpenPLi 3.0 on my VU+ Solo2 (genuine) and everything was perfect.

All my video recordings (both encrypted and FTA) were easy to watch on my PC (VLC) and easy to edit on my PC (VideReDo & Handbrake).

Unfortunately, since OpenPLi has been updated to 4.0 this is no longer true.

I can still playback all recordings on PC (VLC) but:

1) FTA recording are still editable

2) encrypted recordings are no longer editable by neither VideoReDo or Handbrake (they are not recognized by them as video stream files)

Has something changed?

Is it going to be a permanent change?

I remember in the OP 3.0 there was an option to change the recording encryption status....

Please help.

Thank you

Can you playback encrypted recordings on your PC too? If not, you have have changed the config so that recordings are no longer decrypted when saved.

Hi

The recordings from encrypted stations are not actually encrypted as such because I can playback them on PC with VLC easily.

The problem is these files are not recognized / cannot be opened by VideReDo and Handbrake at all (they are not visible to them as video stream files).

Any FTA recordings can be opened by VLC, VideoReDo and Handbrake with ease.

Has recording of encrypted stations changed somehow in OP 4.0?

How to change the config to record encrypted stations in 4.0 un-encrypted as was in 3.0? I do not see anything in the menu.....

No, absolutely nothing has changed, a TS is a dump from everything that is received.

4.0 has the additional option to record the file with ECM info, and record it in it's encrypted state, for offline decryption. So I was wondering if you enabled one of these settings by mistake.

If not, I don't have a clue.

Hi

Could you please let me know where are these options in the menu?

Could not find them (saw them before in 3.0) though.

Thank you.

Don't have a box handy at the moment, I'm travelling. Maybe someone else can help out?

What is possible (but a dev should confirm this): not all hardware supports offline decoding, it could be possible that these options are not visible in your case. But they could be present in the config file, if you flashed 4.0 with restore of a backup?

Hi,

Offline decoding is the right tool to fix it?

I know where it is in the menu.

Any special way to do it or simply follow the prompts?

Thank you.

I don't know, I'm only guessing.

But I can't think of another reason, as a TS file is a one-on-one dump of everything that is received, as is. The only possible difference is the decoding.

Hi,

How do you transfer files between your STB and your PC, if it is with FTP be sure to configure your FTP tool to use binary and not ascii (check this especially with FileZilla).

I think I am experiencing the same problem. 

Recorded TS are no longer decrypted by default. I have to manually choose 'decode and record ECM' instead of 'Normal' (recording type) in timer's settings or use 'start offline decode' when recording is complete.

Something has changed recently, as all my recordings made after 22. june 2014 are encrypted.

sorry guys, my bad, everything is fine after I switched from oscam-unstable to CCcam
