Zgemma H7s Guide

'mount' will show that /media/hdd is /dev/sda1

/dev/sda1 on /media/hdd type ext4 (rw,relatime,data=ordered)

yes

To get your skin name you can flash back to the slot with bad image BUT if you overwrote it😏. Do a long press on the power button and a menu will appear, same to go back to good slot. When you find the skin give me name.

For cacheflush seldom used now as boxes have large memory. Would you believe I never used Power timers. Also the PSU may be on way out. Disable both and see results.

Set up the bouquet and download the m3u8 playlist for the bouquet using the openwebif and upload that to whatever IPTV app you use on the second TV.

I'm using Smart IPTV which requires a one off payment per TV and the playlist is uploaded via a website.

The SmartIPTV App is available on Samsung and LG Smart TVs and probably many more. Activation fee is something like €5 which is good value when compared to running cables or using another STB or a Firestick or something. There are other apps but I didn't do a price comparison or trawl for a free one.

I very much doubt it , especially if we are talking about the LG smart remote.

However , you can easily get the LG remote to control the box , Ive got a CX and it has controlled all of my enigma 2 boxes so far , thats Tiviar , H7s , H82H , Octagon S8008 , VU Duo 4K SE.

If you are going that way , make sure its done properly , go to HDMI control and set up the box properly , that means a series of boxes to fill as to the maker , model number etc.

Enable CEC and the options should appear , there is no guide anymore with most TVs , just an online manual for the smart OS.

Sorry if this has been discussed before. I am getting rid of SkyQ and I was thinking of putting back an Zgemma H7S that I was using a few years back.

First I have freesat on a LG TV (LG OLED55CS6LA) coming from the same dish which works fine. I trying tuning in the Zgemma and I am just getting 35 Encrypted Sky channels in the scan 0n Astra 2E/2F/2G.

Am I doing something wrong or is it the LNB?

Thanks

Thanks for the help. Definitely only have the one dish 😄

You can I think by use of 'favourites' and ABM is highly configurable too.

A good few users here seem to swear by the 'favourites' method. As in they copy everything they like into their favourites and just use the favourites bouquet then. You can mix them in favourites.

It should be possible to have mixed bouquets in ABM too. But from what I know in ABM it's not so easy to do in a way that wouldnt all undo it and revert to the predefined schemes next time you run ABM. Which you will want to do when channels change or new ones come along.
Underlying reason for the separation of Saorview & SAT bouquets wise is probably that both services are different tech and therefore are on a different tuner and therefore different scan runs and also have different methods for acquiring the EPG data.

Me personally I just have a Saorview bouquet and then UK-Entertainment, UK-This, UK-That … I dont mind the separation. It's not like there are that many Saorview channels anyway. And it's quite easy to configure in a native ABM way which is a big plus if you dont want to be at that box manually every time some channels change. You just run ABM again finished.

I dont think so.

make sure you have 'enigma2-settings-feed' as a source, then install 'enigma2-plugin-picons-snp-full.100x60-86x46.dark.on.transparent'

probably other ways but this works for me

Happens the same with mine cant get to the bottom of it. Havent found conclusive logs for it either. Seems something with epg updates bt not sure.

Are both boxes with the internal HDD, ie not sticking out at rear? The epg should be saved to HDD or usb so go to EPG settings and look for location and see if it says HDD if not change it from internal flash. Another thing to check is how the epg is loaded, you dont say image and vix with openepg is best. Also you may have epgimporter running. finally check the tuner config to ensure both are getting a signal.

The other thing you can do is change the psu but not on your box as doing constant reboots from rear is a no no.

you have have to check the HDD as well ie disconnect and reconnect and when box is openlook for fat capacitors.

as you get 7 day epg you could turn that off and see what happens

That fault is a pain and can indicate the box is goosed.

can you say the image and skin menu about information or similar

My H7S also crashes but could be during the day and not early morning when epg runs.

Never found out why , even told possible power supply.
