The images you mention are DMM images. Using their closes source binary. We don't use DMM code, we use OpenPLi code. Only the binary platform drivers are supplied by the hardware vendor.
The more they put in their closed source binary, and the more non-standard stuff they put in their drivers, the more difficult it will be for us to keep supporting Dreamboxes. At the moment we're the only open source team that still does. And we don't like to add hacks to our code to work around idiotic descisions made by vendors.
If a vendor wants OpenPLi to support their hardware (and most do because it sells), then they have to put the effort in. We are not in the business to make them sell boxes. We don't make a penny if DMM sells more. If you want OpenPLi, don't buy a Dreambox.
If this goes on, I would not be suprised that in the future there will not be an OpenPLi for a Dreambox. We already don't support the v2 box series, and of the ones we do support, one is stuck at 2.1.

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.
