There are 2 posts here: https://wiki.openpli.org/iptvplayer

 

The first is the old set of instructions by SSS and the comment below covers the new set of instructions, as explained below.

 

Almost all instructions are by SSS himself, with some minor additions by me, in both of those posts...

 

==========NEW INSTRUCTIONS: FFMPEG INSTALATION FOR MIPSEL PLATFORMS===========

Preparation

Before installation make sure that you have enough space in your rootfs. You need at least 15MB free space.

To check free space in your rootfs you can use following command:

df -h /
 
Sample output:

    Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
    ubi0:rootfs             440.3M    183.2M    257.0M  42% /
 
If you do not have enough flash memory for all of the plugins etc. that you want to install, then
another way of installing it all is to either use:

A) Flash Expander for which you need a USB memory stick, with 2 partitions (best in EXT4 format):
   -at least 1/2 GB for /usr folder, i.e. the Flash Expander itself and
   -the rest for SWAP, picons, subtitle folder, EPG etc. etc.
   
I would recommend Mini Tool Partition Wizard 10, under Windows OS, to partition and format the USB stick.
   
B ) MultiBoot, also on a large USB memory stick (various plugins are available for it, Open MultiBoot, Mini Multi Boot etc.)

Once you prepare the image properly, you can proceed with ffmpeg and the IPTV Player installation...
 
To choose the correct ffmpeg package for your image you need to find out the following:

1) OpenSSL version
2) glibc version
3) hard/soft float
 
#################################
1) How to check your OpenSSL version:
#################################

One has to connect with your STB and then give this telnet command, for example, using a programme called PuTTy:

openssl version

One may get something like this:

OpenSSL 1.0.2d 9 Jul 2015

So, in that case we know that we have version 1.0.2
 
One may also get the following output to this command:

-sh: openssl: not found

In this case, one should check OpenSSL version as follows:
 
ls -la /usr/lib/libssl*

Example output:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        383624 Aug 19  2015 /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8

So, in this case the OpenSSL version is 0.9.8.
 
In case one gets:

/usr/lib/libssl.so.1.0.0

one must make an additional check:

grep OPENSSL /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.0.0

Sample output:

    OPENSSL_cleanse
    OPENSSL_DIR_read
    OPENSSL_DIR_end
    OPENSSL_1.0.0
    OPENSSL_1.0.1
    OPENSSL_1.0.1d
    OPENSSL_1.0.2
    OPENSSL_DIR_read(&ctx, '
    OPENSSL_malloc Error

So, in this case one knows one has version 1.0.2.
 
########################
2) How to check glibc version:
########################

Checking glibc version is very easy:

ls -la /lib/libc-*

Example output:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       1541476 Aug 19  2015 /lib/libc-2.21.so

I.e. this indicates version 2.21.
 
########################
3) Checking for hard/soft float:
########################

One must give the following telnet commands:

cd /tmp
wget http://iptvplayer.pl.../mipsel/readelf
chmod 777 readelf
./readelf -a /lib/libc-*.so | grep FP:
rm readelf

Sample output:

Tag_GNU_MIPS_ABI_FP: Soft float

or

Tag_GNU_MIPS_ABI_FP: Hard float (double precision)

============================================

When you already know versions of OpenSSL, glibc used in your image and used FPU mode you are ready to choose ffmpeg package.

If you have glibc version lower than 2.20 you need to use package for _old_

All packages are available here: http://iptvplayer.pl/resources/ (one can find SH4 and ARM platforms covered there, as well)

Packages for MIPSEL platforms:

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_hard_openssl0.9.8_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_hard_openssl1.0.0_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_hard_openssl1.0.2_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz


ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_old_fpu_hard_openssl0.9.8_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_old_fpu_hard_openssl1.0.0_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_old_fpu_hard_openssl1.0.2_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz
 

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_soft_openssl0.9.8_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_soft_openssl1.0.0_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_soft_openssl1.0.2_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz


ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_old_fpu_soft_openssl0.9.8_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_old_fpu_soft_openssl1.0.0_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_old_fpu_soft_openssl1.0.2_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

 

One can see the full name of a package as follows:

 

=======ffmpeg Installation procedure=======

Give a series of following telnet commands...

example:
cd /tmp
wget http://iptvplayer.pl...ive_rtmp.tar.gz
tar -xvf ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_XXX_YYY_YYY_opensslZ.Z.Z_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz -C /
rm ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_XXX_YYY_YYY_opensslZ.Z.Z_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz

For ET10K:
cd /tmp
wget http://iptvplayer.pl...ive_rtmp.tar.gz
tar -xvf ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_hard_openssl1.0.2_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz -C /
rm ffmpeg3.2.2_mipsel_fpu_hard_openssl1.0.2_dash_librtmp_native_rtmp.tar.gz
 
 
You should always collect output returned by install command, it will be useful when installation failed.
 
After installation you should check if ffmpeg is working correctly:

ffmpeg -version

Sample output:

A lot of work you have done by trying it out an make a manual here.

I will study it when I have time.

Thanks a lot.

For me with et-10000 with instructions provided:
 

Some plugins are not available:
Extensions/IPTVPlayer (no module named htmlentitydefs)

Edited by mocho, 2 April 2017 - 22:44.

[gorski]

That depends on the image.

 

See the https://wiki.openpli.org/iptvplayer - first post:

 

2a) If it doesn't appear in the Plugins, for instance - usually in older images, missing some Python parts - use the following Telnet commands

 

opkg update && opkg install python-html
opkg update && opkg install python-textutils
rm -rf /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/IPTVPlayer
cd /tmp
wget http://iptvplayer.vline.pl/download/update/latest.pythonX.X.tar.gz
tar -xzf latest.pythonX.X.tar.gz -C /tmp
rm latest.pythonX.X.tar.gz
cp -r iptvplayer-for-e2.git/IPTVPlayer /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/IPTVPlayer
rm -rf iptvplayer-for-e2.git/IPTVPlayer
sync
reboot

 

Good luck!

Hi,  just a report back, I had same problem as in post #4, did as instructed in #5 and delighted all working.

[gorski]

My thread was deleted... I presume it was beacuse it had 2 parts and the second part was not easy to see - one had to click on "Comment" below...

 

Anyway, I have done it again, with only the up-to-date info...

Edited by gorski, 8 July 2017 - 16:54.

[WanWizard]

As already mentioned, nothing was deleted: https://mediawiki.op....org/iptvplayer.

 

It wasn't transfered yet, and with good reason, and such a long piece needs proper formatting, or perhaps even to be broken up in sub pages. The old one was even better readable than the new one...

[gorski]

Ah, I see, thanx!

Yes, sorry, I had no time to search again for the proper formatting for the SW...

Could you add those to the page, please: code <>, quote "" etc. It would be easy then and I wouldn't mind editing it, so it looks like my usual tutorials...

[Rick Hunter]

The document back online at: https://wiki.openpli.org/Plugin_Wiki

We're not ready yet with the makeover for this document.. But since there is apparently 'an urgent' need for this document.. We've placed it online.

[gorski]

OK, I did it...

https://wiki.openpli...Wiki:Iptvplayer - all praise be to SSS!!!

Commands to be used when editing Wiki pages: https://www.mediawik...Help:Formatting

 

Mostly Section Headings of different levels

== Level 2 ==

=== Level 3 ===

==== Level 4 ====

===== Level 5 =====

====== Level 6 ======

This gives you content, to easily go to the part that interests you...

 

<blockquote>...</blockquote>

 

See also: https://en.wikipedia...Quotation_marks

 

Also:

Line breaks <br />don't break levels.

Plus, one must edit one's profile and activate advanced editing tool etc.

 

Good luck!

hello admin Why do not you iptvplayer In the plugin openpli 6 thanks.

[gorski]

There is no need for it. All you need is here, the post above yours....

[gorski]

So, anyone knows how to get the

 

[ QUOTE ] [ / QUOTE ]

 

quote

 

and

 

[ CODE ] [ / CODE ]

 

code

 

results on that Wiki page, like here, on the forum, with the forum SW, please?

General markup help: https://www.mediawik...Help:Formatting

 

For code: https://www.mediawik...SyntaxHighlight

[gorski]

Thank you!

The first one I already put up but the second one is better for the purposes I pointed out...

[gorski]

OK, re-did it, removing the blockquote and replacing it with syntaxhighlight commands, as they separate/highlight the following text from the normal text and preserve the formatting...

<syntaxhighlight lang="python" line='line'>
and
</syntaxhighlight>

I had to remove the break commands inside those areas - hope I didn't make any mistakes and that all code is precise...

 

One more thing (I have guests, so no more time): how do I embed an image - the command, please?

 

Cheers!

Hello

 

Thank you for a good instructions but I need some help.

 

Having a DM 8000 no clone and with Openpli 6, try to install ffmpeg on it but I can't

 

Have I make some mistake or is it Openpli6 ?

 

Thanks in advance
