@Huevos,

Then please post your sources here. You say it is working on VU and ET this single code?


yes it based on my version of blind scan, that i tweaked and recode to work on both boxes in single code. Huevos has taken it even further and done a fantastic job.

Is your code GPL? Seems very interesting and usefull blindscan additions. Another good addition would be to update satellites.xml with new transponders found, marked with a flag as feed transponders or not.

I'm not sure about the license. You'd need to check with Andyblac. He wrote the code for the Vix image. I just modified it a bit and submitted it back to the Vix team for them to use as they please.

I haven't used it personally on an ET9x00, but it has been tested by the Vix team on those receivers and is reported to work fine.

Hi,

as only Vu+ /Xtrend using same DVB-S Tuner AVL2108 provide some kind of opensource (not like DMM with their closed source) Blindscan enabled E2-Binary for configuring Blindscan directly in Scan-Setup Screen. So does it really matters, when it is outsourced to a Plugin, when the AVL (Binary) Blindscan is only supported by Vu+ /Xtrend AVL-Tuner based STBs?

Today the error still occurs. Why this faulty version remains on feed?
Most problems can be solved simply by a closer look.

Nothing wrong with keeping a catalogue of your finds but I don't think satellites.xml is the correct place to do it. The thing is a feed might be up for 5 minutes and never seen again. If you keep scanning a satellite that is busy for feeds you might end up with satellites in your satellites.xml with hundreds of transponders listed when there are just a handful of permanent ones on the satellite. When it comes to doing a service scan that scan will take much longer than necessary as the receiver trawls through the oversize list of non-existant transponders. There are other issues to like the receiver would need to be restarted after every scan for the changes to be meaningful... and you could no longer uses satellites.xml as a source of transponders to ignore.

config.misc.boxtype.value

Is there not a similar variable in OpenPLI that can be used to discover which type of receiver is executing this code?

You can call a function in Components.About for that....

Yes, GPL in as far as I am concerned. Don't know about the mods by ET, though.
Note that symbol rates can be entered with 5 digits, but will be truncated to a multiple of 1000. This is a limitation in the binary.

I started this thread with an update to the existing blindscan plugin by ET. That plugin also provided the binary. The thread is now confused because another separate plugin was proposed. They two have different approaches and perhaps different uses. The plugin that I proposed is integrated with the existing scan menu entry and is a blind scan period. The plugin proposed by Huevos is a separate plugin with many more features for I would say users with particular interests.

The main reason why I started to work on the blind scan plugin is that I believe that when there is a plugin in the feed, it should be working as well as possible. And personally speaking this kind of blind scan is fine for me. It allows me to scan a satellite even though I have no reliable info on the transponders. This form of pure blind scan is also what is offered in non-linux boxes and could therefore be considered as core functionality, I believe.

For real dye hard blind scanners, the plugin proposed by Huevos is great, of course. This kind of scan requies some dedication to work with. There are numerous feeds reported that are only 4 MHz apart with the same polarity and symbol rate. And as already remarked, these feeds probably live only for a short time only to reappear at an unknown point in the future.

So, bottom line, it depends on your interests. I hope I have answered your question here.

I apologize for that. I haven't paid enough attention to the dependencies. The install works fine it you do this in telnet with --force-depends. I will re-package it.
