is it possible to add it to enigma
its very anoying to to config sat then goto satfinder and check if setting are correct





while on enigma2

[Kosh]

I see this data inside my skin: "Magic-(E)HD" and even more details when I push Ok for additional info inside "Second Infobar".

[littlesat]

I think he means you directly see them when setting up the transponder parameters, before you start to scan...

[hemertje]

never used it as my dish is set correctly

[theparasol]

Would be very handy if you want / need to finetune your dish. Not everyone has a rocky steady dish installation

[hemertje]

there are differences between the tuners of the different boxtypes
so if you use for example a ET9000 to finetune it you will get others results when you use a DM800SE

I think what you want could simply be added to your skin, in the "reception settings" screen section. The required info could be extracted from the satfinder section of the skin_default.xml:

<screen name="Satfinder" position="center,center" size="520,400" title="Satfinder">
<widget name="introduction" position="0,0" size="0,0" font="Regular;23" />
<ePixmap pixmap="skin_default/icons/dish_scan.png" position="5,25" zPosition="0" size="119,110" transparent="1" alphatest="on" />
<widget source="Frontend" render="Label" position="190,10" zPosition="2" size="260,20" font="Regular;19" halign="center" valign="center" tran

</widget>
<eLabel name="snr" text="SNR:" position="120,35" size="60,22" font="Regular;21" halign="right" transparent="1" />
<widget source="Frontend" render="Progress" position="190,35" size="260,20" pixmap="skin_default/bar_snr.png" borderWidth="2" borderColor="#c

<widget source="Frontend" render="Label" position="460,60" size="60,22" font="Regular;21">

</widget>
<eLabel name="lock" text="Lock:" position="120,115" size="60,22" font="Regular;21" halign="right" />
<widget source="Frontend" render="Pixmap" pixmap="skin_default/icons/lock_on.png" position="190,110" zPosition="1" size="38,31" alphatest="on

<convert type="FrontendInfo">LOCK</convert>
<convert type="ConditionalShowHide" />
</widget>
<widget source="Frontend" render="Pixmap" pixmap="skin_default/icons/lock_off.png" position="190,110" zPosition="1" size="38,31" alphatest="o
n">
<convert type="FrontendInfo">LOCK</convert>
<convert type="ConditionalShowHide">Invert</convert>
</widget>
<ePixmap pixmap="skin_default/div-h.png" position="10,152" zPosition="1" size="500,2" />
<widget name="config" position="10,165" size="500,225" scrollbarMode="showOnDemand" />
</screen>

The example above certainly wouldn't look good using the positioning from the satfinder screen in the tuner config section, but it is a starting point to figure out what needs to be placed, you can decide where. Hint: you'll need correct paths pointing to your png (graphic files), skin_default/bar_ber.png would only be valid if your skin.xml resided in /usr/share/enigma2, which is unlikely...

I don't know if anyone would have any interest in doing this for you, but it would be a good project for you as you are the one that wants the feature... ;)


Good luck,

Ps. Many/most learn these type of things through trial & error. It may take you 30 tries to get it laid out how you like, but you'll probably also learn some other cool things along the way...

Or install sherlock...

[bogyman]

hi all
sherlock or any other tool/plugin is irrelevant
hemispherical1 idea seems fine
my point is to see real time tuner data when configuring sats or diseqc ports

[littlesat]

SecondInfobar + Magic Skin HD and 2x OK!!!

[hemispherical1]

SecondInfobar + Magic Skin HD and 2x OK!!!

Somehow adds strength meters to the Reception Settings screen?

No, not on that screen... but for adjust my dish I have one bouquet with for each satellite one FTA TV channel...

It is complicated the way how enigma2 is build now. At each change on that screen you need to retune to do that properly. This will be a lot extra decoding and also probably recoding...
