    I'm going to crack on so with building a full OpenPLi image with the same plugins as in Hyperion. My hope is to basically merge the two so having the functionality of PLi but the looks of Hyperion.

    I love the BluePanel in Hyperion and my god, that top left corner logo in PLi is absolutely awful.

    Of course, everyone wants this yesterday so please be patient :)

    is it normal to have gaps in the epg?

    eg: when i pull up the guide there are many channels with no info.

    I have ran epg numerous times, but still no luck.

    Yeah I have gaps in mine. I think its normal as they are the channel numbers with no channels if you know what I mean. :-)

    Thanks to all those that give their time for free. Am wondering if any mods reading this thread would consider creating a sticky. Things to be included would be links to the latest working image, how to FTP, which memory stick to buy, known issues and work arounds etc.

    We are fast approaching 200 pages now and it sure is hard finding useful stuff.

    There is an Alien 2 firmware thread already with alot of what you mention on it,but I suspect people arent bothering to read it.

    Oh, for example, you have bbc1 channel with no info in the epg?

    In the crossepg settings are you saving to internal flash?

    Does anybody know if there is an issue with watching IPTV channels in TS Media 3.2? I usually just use TS Media for the movies and net tv sections and also the radio section. I often use Veetle too. Occasionally I also look at some of the IPTV channels (particularly the US ones)

    Havnt been in the IPTV section for a few weeks but was off work today so decided to check out a few channels. None of them are coming on though. The channel name is not even coming up on the display on the box. All other sections on TS Media are working fine though.

    In addition I have different IPTV bouquets that I got from running the IPTV list updater 1.0. plugin. None of those channels are coming on either. Is there some setting that I might have accidentally turned off?

    Thanks

    Thanks Zardoz hence why a sticky would be great. Didn't know it was there. It'd the usual problem with forums, most people gravitate to the front page only and wouldn't be expecting there to be two Amiko threads.

    Great image, fixes the judder problem and dare I say it as responsive as Hyperion2. Only thing I can't get working on it is streaming channels. Anything else I've thrown at it seems to work fine.

    If anyone wants a copy of my image you can find it here.

    Image includes 1channel, Alternative Softcam Manager, Oscam (blank), Autobouquets e2, Autoshutdown, Autotimer, Cool TvGuide, CrossEPG, Enhanced Movie Center, OpenWebif(streaming not working), Permanent timeshift,RTE Player, TsMedia, Virtual Zap and a few more bits.

    I think I've cracked the Streaming :) Copy the OpenWebIf and WebInterface folders from the Hyperion over the top of the folders in OpenPLi (/usr/lib/enigma2/python/plugins/extensions) and Bingo, it worked for me last night.

    I never thought that streaming would just be down to the OpenWebIf. I had assumed there were other core components at play here.

    Yeah, it's a great image, I would like to be able to change some of the button layouts on the remote and will get around to working out how to do it sometime, but for the moment it's good just to be able to watch TV and not trick with the settings and whatnot :D

    Installed the Hybrid and can confirm no judder, it's working fine so far in the little while I tested. Next to figure how to change boot animation and activity spinners as they are the only thing annoying me

    Where and how can I mount my hdd using the above image which I have flashed my box with.

    There is no bluepanel so I cant seem to find a hdd mount manager anywhere.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 552 ✭✭✭smee again


    Streaming does not work on that Hybrid, Openwebif works, I can web login from laptop or phone but cannot stream to either.

    It automounts it to /media/hdd. The bluepanel is unique to Hyperion

    Mine did, is it formatted ext3? Can you see your files in /media/hdd using FTP? When you play do you see your recorded files?

    Yep its ext3
    Yep I can see old recordings in the file explorer on main menu.
    But when I try record etc it tells me not mounted

    Edit /etc/fstab

    add the following which will automount the usb disk

    /dev/sda1 /hdd auto defaults 0 0

    I have the same issue with my hdd.
    I also edited fstab and and verified that the hdd would mount to \media\hdd using the mount -a command in putty, however it never auto mounts on reboot of the box.

    My hard drive is picked up as sda5.
    The work around for me was to change the default location of the hdd in the recording paths tab under system settings. I changed the recording path to autofs/sda5.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 552 ✭✭✭smee again


    I can stream the channel that's playing on TV, but not a different channel


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 552 ✭✭✭smee again


    For those having hdd problems, there's a mount manager if you press blue


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 552 ✭✭✭smee again


    Figured the streaming, tuner c was never setup, disabled. Set it as equal to tuner b and streaming works.
    Anyone know how to change the bootlogo or spinner?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 552 ✭✭✭smee again


    Sorry guys, jumped the gun. I can stream a channel from the same transponder, but not from another one. I can stream a Soarview channel while a sat channel is playing, just cannnot two sat channels from different transponders. I've also set a recording on tuner b and tried changing channel but the second sat channel on tuner c does not work. It's a problem with the second sat tuner

    I have tested this and it works, but it doesn't save the mount settings after a reboot of the box.
