@pop_eye,

 

Do you already find clones of Xtrend ET series on the market? I don't.

Do you find clone of VU+? Yes

 

So the protection of Xtrend seems efficient and they need to protect there investment.

 

I have tested a VU+ Duo², my friend give it to me for 2 months after 1 month I pack it back in its box and return to my good old ET-9000 because there was too many drivers issue with VU+.

 

So I prefer to have a box "clone protected"  that works fine than a box with many driver issues.

Hi,

 

Thanks Littlesat to have added the option:

 

Keep focus on current service while entering servicelist

 

I really appreciate the effort!

We don't need another key assigned since P+ is doing it the right way.

I never understand when opening the channel list with the up (or down) why it also change the cursor position in the list, for me this rather always look like a bug that is there for a very long time now. I see absolutely no advantages to this behavior, I don't undestand the logic behing this.

 

When you press EPG, it highlight the channel you are on. Pressing OK you are the info on the current channel. Audio is on the current channel, etc...

I have lot of option available into channel list + Menu button that I'd like to use on the currentely watching channel.

 

Do you think logical to have to press UP then DOWN then MENU to get access to those option in the current channel?

For me it is not, I call the channel list UP arrow then I press MENU, this is the logical way of doing it.

 

We don't press the UP arrow to change channel we press it to open up the channel list selection, nothing more, nothing less.

To change channel we have left/right arrow.

 

Lets call it ergonomics... current way of working is not ergonomics.

Hi,

 

OK forget about the P+ / P- I don't want to disturb too much the E2 users.

 

But the up / down arrow behavior is no logical, you press it up the first for what:  just to pop-up the channel list (not to zap or change anything). So I would like that the cursor stay on the current I am currently watching.

 

 

Robinson summarize it very well:  channel is highlighted which is not currently being watched (for me this non-sense).

 

If WanWizard is using it for the EPG then he will probably watch at EPG summary on severals channels and not only the channel just before the one he is currently watching, so he will have to press the up arrow several times anyway. But then we can also say that the EPG key is there to watch the EPG.

I don't see which extra key he will need to press because to change channel +1 / -1 you have the left and right arrow

 

So according to me the normal behavior is 1 press on up will just open the channel list on the current channel.

When you saw the number of possible option that you have pressing menu in channel list, I think better to stay on the current channel since I pop up the channel list I want to be able to use the Menu key directly on the channel I am currently watching.

 

Moreover have you ever try to create a bouquet list from scratch yourself with the RCU?  This is total mess press up then down then menu to add it to favorites. When the channel name is specific no problem you cannot make mistake but if for example you want to add channels like Eurosport / Disney etc... you have up to 10 times in your all channel list! So if you forgot the up/down trick you insert the wrong channel in your favorite.

Hi,

 

Check this with google translate and you will understand how a softcam is started in Openpli.

Hi,

 

This is not a hack at all!!!!     Nor a virus, nothing his box is not even corrupted...

 

This (stupid) user; forward an external port to its STB webif...

Somebody find it and simply use the Send A Message option in the webif!

 

Try it on you own box, you will get the same screen.

 

It is very easy to find such opened OpenWebif, google is a friend to find them. 

 

Want to play around yourself here are two example, just found by google search:

Hi,

 

It is on the bottom right, when you place the mouse cursor on it it says: Vote this post up.

You have it on all post, except the one that you do yourself. There is even a small counter close to it.

Hi,

 

The way the different softcam script are written for each Softcam can lead to error.

 

Can I propose that each softcam launch script use this new script.

It use variables for the executable name and for the parameters, with this way of working there is no error possible in the script.

 

 

#!/bin/sh
# Define parameters here
# start-exe = executable to launch
# softcam_param = full command line parameters to pass to executable
softcam_exe="/usr/bin/oscam"
softcam_param="-b -r 2 -c /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam"
softcam_info="oscam"
 
remove_tmp ()
{
 [ -e /tmp/ecm.info ] && rm -rf /tmp/ecm.info
 [ -e /tmp/.oscam ] && rm -rf /tmp/.oscam
 [ -e /tmp/.console ] && rm -rf /tmp/.console
 [ -e /tmp/camd.socket ] && rm -rf /tmp/camd.socket
 }
 
 
 case "$1" in
start)
exec start-stop-daemon -S -x $softcam_exe -- $softcam_param
;;
stop)
exec start-stop-daemon -K -R 2 -x $softcam_exe &
sleep 3
ps | grep $softcam_exe | grep -v grep > /dev/null
if [ $? -eq 0 ]
then
killall -9 $softcam_exe 2>/dev/null
fi
sleep 2
remove_tmp
;;
 restart|reload)
$0 stop
sleep 4
$0 start
;;
 version)
$softcam_exe -V | head -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
;;
 info)
  echo $softcam_info
  ;;
 values)
echo "Command line started:" 
echo $softcam_exe $softcam_param
;;
 *)
echo "Usage: $0 start|stop|restart|version|info|values"
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0

Hi,

I have just created a script to convert userbouquet files into .M3U file so we can zap directly from within VLC playlist.

Would be nice to have this .m3u file generation directly from OpenWebif instead of creating .m3u individually for each channel that we want to stream.
My idea is to have it include close to each bouquet name, so in one click we can generate a full playlist.

I have attached the script so people interested can have a look at it.

Hi,

I don't know if OpenpliPC is working on a Mac.
I am using OpenpliPC for fun and not for daily usage, but so far all the tests I have performed are quite positives, so I think that you can use it for daily usage.

Hi,

If you use the openpli_merge branch in the util folder you can compile a small program that will create for you the NIM socket file.

cd util
./build_create_nim_sockets.sh
./create_nim_sockets

Hi,

unpack the ipk and install the files manually there.
Simply rename your .ipk in .tgz or tar.gz and unpack it.

Hi,

use: sudo gedit

and you will be able to edit xine.conf

Hi,

For people, like MrCoolSpan, that use DVB card which use both frontend0 and frontend1 on the same adapter, please test this version and report if this fix the problem or not. If it doesn't fix, please show me the result of:

./create_nim_sockets -d

How to:

- unpack the file: tar -xvzf create_nim_socket_2012-04-02.tgz

There is an already builded version in it, simply run it: ./create_nim_sockets

If the pre-compiled version doesn't work for you then build your own: ./build_create_nim_sockets.sh and run it again.

Thanks,

Pr2
