@balkanac

in e2iplayer configuration, in the preferred update server item, select zadmario.gitlab, save in green, after updating e2iplayer should download the necessary add-ons

I try this, friend, but problem the same: problem with duktape, just like in screenshot.

Maybe problem be solved if I try with this command: opkg update && opkg install duktape

I try, but nithing.

When I try Fullhd metch, I have new problem, see screenshot

I install OpenPLI 8 in flesh on my Zgemma H7s

I install ServiceApp, reboot, and after I setup extplayer for default player.

Via FTP I put E2IPlayer by Mario in Extensions, then I reboot my box.

I start E2iPlayer and check it, extplayer is here, then I try to play some videos from youtube, but don't work, problem with duktape.

I install duktape from Packet management, but problem is still here. See screenshot.

What the problem and how to solved him?

telnet: opkg update

opkg install enigma2-plugin-extensions-e2iplayer-deps

reboot

The image is great and there are no problems except that the exteplayer3 does not work and is not recognized by the serviceapp.

I hope that in some future version this will be corrected...Multiboot is compatible with all images...

Who doesn't work exteplayer3 add this line: config.plugins.iptvplayer.exteplayer3path=/usr/bin/exteplayer3
to file settings:/etc/enigma2/settings.

good hint!

I can only add, that you must stop enigma before changing 'settings' file otherwise the changes won't be applied
init 4
... now edit /etc/enigma2/settings - add line to it and save
init 3

or directly from commandline (be careful, in case typing this by hand, pay special attention to double '>>')
init 4 && sleep 1 && echo "config.plugins.iptvplayer.exteplayer3path=/usr/bin/exteplayer3" >> /etc/enigma2/settings && init 3
but of course first you have to have enigma2-plugin-extensions-e2iplayer-deps installed

Is it possible to fix bug - no sound - on KODI? The same bug is on development edition.

 

We have no Kodi expertise in the team, there is only one external developer for it.

 

There is a topic in the 3rd-party forum about Kodi, maybe you can ask. Since other people have no audio issues and even a working Netflix, maybe there is something missing that needs to be installed by hand?

 

 

I used OpenATV in Openmultiboot and the sound on KODI works properly. I asked also my friends with Ultimo4k and they confirmed about no sound on KODI at Pli8.

 

Regards,

DJWeed

 

 

Hi,

 

Can you please try the following?

 

Download the attached file attachicon.gifasound.zip, unzip it and copy the resulting file: asound.conf into the /etc/  folder on your VU+.

 

Pr2

 

 

Hi,

 

I tried by the following as below but after that there is still no sound in KODI.

 

BTW: Awaitng for another test.

 

Regards,

DJWeed

 

 
do you already know what is the reason for the lack of sound in kodi because it is not on Vu + UNO 4K SE

Have found a way to get sound in KODI
Since openspa have working sound i compared the setting files for the player (one file in usr/share/kodi/system) "playercorefactory.xml"
this file has in openpli 8.0 an extra text compared with opespa about netflix (text in red below)
If i delete that text i will have sound but the player controls will not work,
I wunder why this text is there in a clean install.
Anybody understand how the player control should work?
 
 
"playercorefactory.xml"

hmmm... deleting all the red xml creates a malformed xml. I tried to delete just       <rule name="netflix" filename="*manifest*"  player="VideoPlayer" />​  - but it didn't give me sound. Instead, it just made it impossible to start video in netflix plugin. Replacing "VideoPlayer" with "E2Player" rendered kodi not responding on rc-input - unless serviceapp is installed and set to use exteplayer3. When exteplayer3 was set as player in serviceapp, video in kodi just doesn't start.

 

So the workaround doesn't work for me - unfortunately...

 

I hope Vu+ will react to this and create the fix for the alsa system / bst layer and make it work...

I see now that you tried with netflix addon, i have not tested that, i tried with the CNN addon (i only wundered of why the netflix text was there at all just after a clean KODI install from the feed)

How to solve the problem of installing ffmeg / extplayer on OpenPLi 8, Box: Zgemma H7s

STEP 1
Install fresh OpenPLi, in flesh or multiboot

STEP 2
Insert via FTP E2iPlayer plugin.
I inserted Maxbambi ( https://gitlab.com/m...r/-/tree/master ), you can also use ZadMario ( https://gitlab.com/zadmario/e2iplayer ), and 9thPrince ( https://gitlab.com/9...r/-/tree/master ) will probably work as well

STEP 3
Install Serviceapp from the feed

STEP 4
Install e2iplayer-deps with the feed, or better yet via telnet, with the command:
opkg update
opkg install enigma2-plugin-extensions-e2iplayer-deps
reboot

STEP 5

For exteplayer3 to work properly, it is required in the file settings located at / etc / enigma2 / settings,
insert the following line:
config.plugins.iptvplayer.exteplayer3path = / usr / bin / exteplayer3

You must do this with a command via telnet:
init 4 && sleep 1 && echo "config.plugins.iptvplayer.exteplayer3path=/usr/bin/exteplayer3" >> /etc/enigma2/settings && init 3

After this, start E2iPlayer (you will get a message about the problem with SSL, however the player will work properly)
Of course, when you start E2iPlayer, install what the wizard asks you to do.

the sound is there but the player is frozen and nothing can be done from the iplot or exit from kodi, it remains to run through the enigme reset tested on uno 4k se

what wonders me is the distorted (clicking) system sounds in Kodi. As I understand it, Kodi utilizes ALSA sound card layer - like aplay does. With aplay, I can play sound just fine. So what is kodi doing differently? There must be some difference in the Kodi code base for openPli, that doesn't call the ALSA library API correctly.

 

The Log contains numerous lines like this:

ERROR: CAESinkALSA - snd_pcm_writei(-32) Broken pipe - trying to recover

though it seems the initialization is succesful.

Can you change sample format? AE_FMT_S16NE

maybe - in asound.conf? 

 

the card supports: AE_FMT_S16NE,AE_FMT_S16LE,AE_FMT_U8

 
maybe like this?
 
pcm.device{
format S16LE,
rate 44100
type hw
card 0
device 0
}
 
pcm.!default{

type plug
slave.pcm "device"
}

I don't know anything about KODI, but maybe KODI sends AE_FMT_S16NE and the box drivers expect AE_FMT_S16LE.

Hi!

PVR client (kodi addon Enigma2 Client)) can't connect to OpenPLI 8.

with OpenPli 7.3 works fine!

UPD: plugin started to connect after reinstallation, but then I switch channel or switch off channel - reciever hangs up

 

In my opinion it happens only due to slow hardware and the 2nd option there can be any other plugin which makes any disturbance . which box you have for it ?

 for kodi supported hardware also visit 

 

https://kodi.wiki/view/Enigma2_Backend

 

Request to all members and posters

plz dont forget to mention your box and image version with post it helps us to access the exact issue.
