    Hi guys... Haven't been following this thread for a long time. I'm currently running a rather old HDMU image I installed using pog's guide (which I've been keeping up to date via the software update interface). But from what I've been reading, it looks like championc's Hyperion-2 image is the best image right now. I'm seriously considering reflashing using this image, but I just wanted to ask:

    1. Has the judder problem been solved in the image posted on this thread:
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056882713&page=3
    or do I need to patch it somehow after downloading?

    2. How stable is this image compared with HDMU? Less reboots/crashes or about the same? What about lagging? At the moment my HDMU is really, really slow when zapping between channels, especially the terrestrial channels. Even navigating the CoolTVGuide is relatively slow (enough to be annoying).

    3. Can you stream 2 different HD satellite channels at the same time? What about 1 terrestrial + 2 satellite channels? If you're watching one channel and streaming another, does the box get slow/less responsive?

    Thanks!!

    This image was built at 1080p. If you want to use 720p, do the following on the remote after the receiver has fully booted:-
    Press Menu, Up, Up, Up, Ok, Ok, Ok, Down, Right, Green

    For Scart
    Press Menu, Up, Up, Up, Ok, Ok, Ok, Left, Green

    So, I took the plunge and installed Champion's hyperion. So far has been a very pleasant surprise. It looks quite stable and slightly more responsive than HDMU. Quite happy so far :3

    Thanks for all the pointers. I'm using a 3G wifi dongle for internet, that's why I'm kind of wed to it.

    Reading only a few pages of this thread should have been enough to convince you tbh.

    Take it in it's simplest sense - it does Saorview and Satellite in one box and can record both too. What more do you need to know ?

    Unzip this and ftp the virtual zap folder to /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions

    Then its just a case of going to plugins to set it up. PIP doesn't work so you can disable that.I find using exit button the handiest.

    how do i set my remote so if i miss something then i can simply press left arrow (beside ok) to rewind?

    Has anyone got this working? Permanent timeshift on hyperion2 seems to be a little all over the place, e.g. pressing pause to rewind and ff depending on situation. I'd like to be able to press pause to pause,button to the left of ok to rewind, button to the right for fast forward and stop to end timeshift, is this possible at all? Multibutton doesn't seem to be able to do the job, at least not for me anyway.

    Hello again!! I am using the Hyperion2 image and am very happy with it! I can not confirm the judder has been eliminated yet.
    However I can not for the life of me mount a 500GB WD Passport USB3 drive. I have searched high and low but no joy. I have tried both EXT3 and FAT32 and the HDD manager in the Blue Panel is not seeing it. I edited fstab (undone again).
    Any suggestions?

    I just flashed Champions back up of the Hyperion image, all running lovely bar two little problems, both concerned with the front panel display.

    The time is showing incorrectly on the front panel, it is set correctly in the menus and displays ok on screen, I've tried cold reboots but still the same.

    The front panel display also shows my HDD as being "FULL", it's only about 10% filled, any way of sorting this?

    Not sure about the HDD but for the VFD, put the box into Standby and take back out of standby and I think the clock time should be corrected.

    Second one in the post below is Hyperion2,just run a software update from the pkt bluepanel when you have it set up and it will apply the judder fix.

    I found it takes a deep standby to reset the front clock. The "full" indicator seems to come and go by itself. I can't see a pattern to it yet.

    If you want a go at installing it yourself from scratch here is the firmware for PKT Hyperion Version 2 for Alien 2

    And here is another link to that firmware on another forum

    using yellowkings image from sattvhelp all running well however cannot get autobouquets to install, followed this process

    Extract dvbsnoop from zip file and ftp across to usr/bin change permissions for this file to 777

    Extract autobouquets.zip and ftp the directory Autobouquets to usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/
    Change permissions of the Autobouquets file to 755

    Then restart Enigma2 and then go to Plugins and you should see Autobouquets installed.

    but nothing appears in plugins menu??
