VU+ has not (yet?) added the Solo4K to the BSP. So there are no (yet?) images for this receiver.

I hope they can make PLi's enigma2 compatible with new ARM chips (kernel 3) so we could say goodbye to Mipsel chips, It's time for powerful chips and new architecture, ARM is the real deal


You can run OpenPli on anything, that includes MIPS, ARM, x86, Microblaze, Leon, whatever...

It also says

28 CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE="arm-linux-"

And

393 # Processor Features
394 #
395 CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y

So it is obviously an Hybrid...

This is your piece of cake MiLo, it has an ARM core!

 

It would be my piece of cake if it were open source.

 

Much stronger than that, if it's open source I'll even write and submit the Linux drivers for free.

At the VTi-forum there are already quite a number of user-views of the 4k: http://www.vuplus-su...=85987&pageNo=1

They also support CI+

According to : https://www.broadcom...cessors/bcm7366

 

"2180p60 or dual 1080p60 decode and transcode capabilities"

 

But we don't know about Vu+ license

looks like 7376 is a almost identical SoC like 7366, but just with MoCA2.0 enabled:
 

Broadcom’s series of systems-on-a-chip (SoCs) includes the BCM7251 for multi-HD/UltraHD IP settop boxes, and the BCM7366 with a direct broadcast satellite Full Band Capture front-end receiver.

There are two corresponding MoCA 2.0-enabled STB SoCs for cable and satellite video gateways: the BCM7439 and BCM7376.

rob I mentioned this on another forum a while ago and you stated CI+ couldn't run on enigma2, what has changed?

It's like softcams, playing protected DVD's, or HDMI-HDCP. Barriers thrown up are there to be broken.... So it looks like a way has been found to have the box accept a CI+ module, multiple vendors already support this.


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (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.

This will be a cat & mouse play, no doubt about that. And the $1000 question is if the actual implementation (by drivers and a 'helper') will still work when more and more limitations of the CI+ are being used. Most providers seem to start with no limitations at all, and of course that's not what CI+ is intended for.

True. As always, the proof of the pudding...

 

I think however that due to the way CI+ works, that it won't be that bad. If the provider enables a limitation, it is a command send to the receiver to activate or block some feature. Our receivers however will respond to such requests with "whatever" and redirect the request to /dev/null... ;)

Do PLi software for this box also coming up, and if so, when? In the list of boxes, New VU+ Solo 4K is missing at the moment. While some of my friends already report, that the box is already in their hands. The question is very topical.
