What's the relation between my post and ViX or ATV?

 

 

 

 

None, just that ViX and ATV provide backup support for all the boxes they build images for, you appear to be more selective.

Backup Suite in Open Vision supports everything except SH4 architecture (which is not yet implemented) so there's no exception in our images.

 

It's not my duty to support other images, I'm not a PLi member and I didn't break the plugin to not detect what was ok before so ask for help from the one who broke it.

Not sure anyone broke it, the H9 Combo and H9 Twin are new boxes in OpenPLi 7.3.

Hello,

 

I have Zgemma  H9.2H and BackupSuite stopped working !

 

*** THIS BACKUP IS CREATED WITH THE BACKUPSUITE PLUGIN ***

*****  https://github.com/O...nE2/BackupSuite  ******

 

Plugin version     = git504+9967f99

Back-up media      = /media/hdd

Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on

/dev/sda4                 1.8T      1.1T    586.0G  66% /media/hdd

 

Back-up = 2020.09.29_12:15

Version = openpli 7.3-release 

Flashed = 2020.02.10_01:28

Updated = 2020.09.28_22:28

Drivers = zgemma-dvb-modules-h9 - 4.4.35-20200720-r0.0

Enigma2 = 2020-08-29-release-7.3

 

 

Working directory  = /media/hdd/bi

Not Open Vision, OpenPLi or SatDreamGr maybe?

No supported receiver found!

Image creation FAILED!

[Kaizoku]

I think Pli team should take the direction of oe-a and have their own backup included in image, its never a good idea to rely on someone doing the job you are supposed to do.

[WanWizard]

If you can provide us with the people to do all that extra work?

 

Besides that, what exactly is the point of a full backup? None of us ever use it. So there isn't much incentive to spend time on it.

@WanWizard

 

Would you please explain in details  , what is the best way to backup current working configuration ? and how to restore it in case of failure  for any reason

 

thanks in advance.

I use this for years now, and also know others that use this for years.

 

So for me it would be highly appriciated when the backupsuite plugin also works after performing a software update in the OpenPLI image.

Configure autobackup, and have it make a backup of external storage (disk, usb). Restore is a matter of flashing, the backup will be automatically restored after a flash.

 

( this does not restore ipks that where installed manually, but those can be placed in the backup manually )

We're not going to maintain a fork, volunteers welcome.

default branch is the "develop" and I think that the 'master' branch should be fixed for pli.

 

as already happened in develop

I think there are no developments in that master branch anymore?

[rantanplan]

Readme develop

https://github.com/O...velop/README.md

Readme master

https://github.com/O...aster/README.md

In the develop PP has adjusted the 'api' things regarding OpenVision.
Therefore it doesn't work for other images.
That's why he changed OpenpliCore develop via pullrequest

[WanWizard]

If there aren't any required changed in develop that are not in master, I'll backport it for the next release update.

 

Thanks for looking into it.

[rantanplan]

I know it's all a bit crazy because of 'devlop' here and 'master' there, but I think that's exactly the problem in 7.3 right now.

[WanWizard]

Just backported it. I've started a manual build for the h9.

[Persian Prince]

No need for a fork, master branch is for PLi and I just invited you @WanWizard to have write access

 

Recent driver changes from Zgemma broke the support I think so you could investigate the new box names presented by Zgemma.

 

develop branch won't work for any other image as we have unique files in Open Vision.

Edited by Persian Prince, 30 September 2020 - 19:45.

[WanWizard]

Invitation accepted.

 

zgemma broke a lot by changing their box names, We needed to adapt code as well.

[Persian Prince]

It's not just about new Zgemma products/drivers that are not supported in master branch, even the new vuduo4kse probably won't work.

 

The new generation (develop branch) woud work for any future products without the need of adding manual values because we check what I was trying to say in https://forums.openp...enigma2-images/

Unfortunately nobody is interested is a common and generic solution.
