Do you own one of the STBs that is supported by PLi or OE-A? Or it's something completely new?

Dear Thank You very much for your response i am completely new in STB world but i have an experience in c++ programming around 10 years. we are interested to add some add on features in STB box like from satellite we are planning to send additional data packet to STB and our STB will ingest it silently after completion of file transfer as data packet from satellite,our STB will play this file in commercial time
Yes we can Arrange STB if you suggest we can arrange it too
Thank you once again

Doesn't have to be a VU+, any supported box will do. I suggest to pick one with the same or similar hardware.
Once you understand how this all works, the next step is to make DVB drivers for your box. When you have those, you can start building and testing for your hardware.

Ok for the start I suggest buy one of http://vuplus.com STBs then run Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS on a PC and build a sample image using https://github.com/O...openpli-oe-core for it, After this you would understand how can you change or add things
hi guys
i follow the installation instructions written in https://wiki.openpli..._for_Developers
first i run the command
sudo apt-get install sed wget cvs subversion git-core \ coreutils unzip texi2html texinfo docbook-utils \ gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat help2man make gcc build-essential g++ \ desktop-file-utils chrpath
then
git clone https://github.com/OpenPLi/openpli-oe-core.git
cd openpli-oe-core
make
cd build
source env.source
unitl now everything was fine but when is run
MACHINE=openplipc bitbake openpli-enigma2-image OR MACHINE=openplipc bitbake openpli-enigma2-feed
it shows error
ERROR: OE-core's config sanity checker detected a potential misconfiguration.
Either fix the cause of this error or at your own risk disable the checker (see sanity.conf).
Following is the list of potential problems / advisories:
Please set a valid MACHINE in your local.conf or environment

If you want to build an x86 version of enigma for use in a virtual machine, you need to correct recipes for that. They are not part of our OE build tree.

OK Thank you for your kind support . First i will try to build any set top box compatible release then i will get back to you guys for development and X86 version of Enigma for use in VM....Again So nice of you and thank you

The only thing you can do is retry, sometimes external sources are unavailable for some reason.
In this case it says that "git.yoctoproject.org" can not be reached due to a name resolution issue. I have no problem here, so if this persists, check if you can access it from your machine.
p.s. currently sourceforge seems to be having issues with their git server, my builds here fail on accessing the minidlna git...

In my opinion every git source except github sucks 
and as I don't like to wait I'll import others using https://github.com/new/import (requires registration) then I would change bitbake (.bb) files

Posted 27 September 2017 - 10:14
Even github is down every now and then. No service is up 100%, not even your own.
If would be better if bitbake would have the option to just use the local copy (if available) instead of producing a python crash and ruining the build.

There is something like that already available. But I guess not exactly that what you want :
BB_SRCREV_POLICY:
Defines the behavior of the fetcher when it interacts with source control systems and dynamic source revisions. The BB_SRCREV_POLICY variable is useful when working without a network.
The variable can be set using one of two policies:
cache - Retains the value the system obtained previously rather than querying the source control system each time.
clear - Queries the source controls system every time. With this policy, there is no cache. The "clear" policy is the default.
Posted 27 September 2017 - 11:33
Nope, I was thinking about "cache-on-query-fail"
