Hello everyone, such a good feeling to join this community I haven't been able to join the E2 community because of financial restrictions hehe. But my DM500S is dying I think so I'm about to get a temporary box, the Xtrend ET4000.

 

I have two questions I could use some help on, please.

 

I found some threads about people facing some trouble using openpli 4.0 on this box, has that been solved?

 

There is another box that I can afford, this one right here http://x-sat.no/iqon...tuner-pvr.html 

 

It's called the Iqon 200HD and there are two versions of it, this one is the Scandinavian version. I would have chosen the Iqon 200HD because it supports DTS and HD audio but THERE appears to be no official support from OpenPLi. 

 

There is this posts that I found online which has openpli 3.0 for the box, http://www.iqon-comm...ew-4d-images.2/

 

I believe that is authored by the poster of that thread?

 

I really hope I'm making the right decision to go for the Xtrend ET4000. I just need it for like half a year then I'll get something more modern, or buy a media player that supports 4k and DTS HD audio, and wait for a satellite receiver that supports HEVC/H265.

 

 

The box will be bought in a couple of hours, lol I hope I can get some feedback and maybe someone will advise me to choose the Iqon 200HD?

Yep, I'm glad I made the right decision. I already got the Xtrend ET4000 and installed the latest image. Its funny and so cool to me that I got to install an image from TODAY... haha my DM500S image was from years ago.

 

I heard that oscam is better than CCcam so I installed that. However I'm facing two issues that are giving me a headache, one is I get this error:

 

- Error: [Errno 146] Connection refused

 

I installed oscam by going to Menu -> Plugins -> softcam  and then I installed Oscam Status which when I open on the TV it says "Oscam Status 0.61 @localhost"

 

******************************

 

The other issue is I tried to put a C: line on the oscam, I couldn't find a proper tutorial but I found posts on forums that answer people who asked for it, and there was different ways of doing it.

 

Anyway my C line share opens up for a few seconds like 3 to 5 seconds then it freezes for a long time and opens again...etc

 

Thank you so much guys!

I sure hope this C line business is about another box in your house. Using shares is illegal, and our forum rules forbid discussing it here.


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Pro (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

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.

its not in my house, its in my friend's house and we share the subscription bill together... is that a problem? WanWizard, sir?

 

EDIT:

I dunno but as long as you're not using an illegal and dubious for-pay cardshare providers that shouldn't be a problem.

Wow me and my friend might have to stop doing this for now I guess. You're scaring me man!

That sucks though I can't afford it all by myself!!!

 

Also the rules don't say that its illegal especially if you do pay subscription fees to the tv company hemertje mate.

I think the most important thing is you don't use some of these dubious for-pay sharers!!! They're the ones hurting the tv companies.

If you use a share, you don't use a smartcard. So you haven't paid. It is not more complicated than that.

 

There is a grey area when it comes to in-house sharing, which according to most provider contracts is not allowed either, but it is less frowned upon since you do pay for the subscription.
