    Did you put the image on the root of the usb drive ?

    Yep I did as always , tried loading the image VIA FORC , and via the upgrade plugin on Spark also.

    Went back and loaded just a lean OpenPLI image on there so the USB stick and box are working.

    I'll upload a fresh copy when I get to house

    Thanks ,

    from looking at the lean Open pli or MartinXp's one the load screen gives a lot more info when loading .

    Comes up boot ,

    Load

    Wait one minute when loading

    Loading

    Then allows you pick your Resolution and setup , its a really good backbone of an image.

    Right, it's some sort of Dropbox on Linux issue, I delete the old backup from Dropbox, boot to spark, take a new backup then FTP them to the Dropbox folder but 3 seconds later Dropbox says it's completed uploading which couldn't be right. This time I've zipped them. Uploading now, give it 15mins.

    Yes, the image gives much more info on boot, first boot, then load, then I think Enigma 2 before a channel appears


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭same ol sh1te


    Right, found a slight issue, putting the box into standby green screens the box every time. The crashlog gives the reason as an out of memory error. I checked the hddmountmanager and the swapfile was not enabled. If you enable the swapfile and enable it at boot you will get a green screen every time on cold boot from the power rocker switch on the back, it restarts once and works fine after until it's cold booted again. I'm fine with this as I don't cold boot much and mostly leave my box running.

    Can someone confirm this image works and that both sat tuners are working/streaming for $ channels

    Anyone get the LCD display to display the correct channel names, rather than "boot", on the AA2+ yet?

    Yes, you need the new image I uploaded http://bit.ly/1grGI02

    Bugga, webinterface works fine but streaming not working

    Sound, I am running TTGs image and have tailored it the way I want it with pretty much everything working well.
    Any way I could extract whatever packages are needed and how I could apply them to TTGs image?

    Don't think so, the driver needs to be compiled with the image

    He can't yet, the only image with the driver available is the OpenPli I have used. There are also lots of bugs in Hyperion 4

    ah right, its not a big deal I suppose but the boot message is a small bit annoying alight.
    might take a look at your image when I get some time, thanks.

    Im afraid this one is getting stuck in boot also ,

    must be something to do with the FTP from box to drop box ,

    I usually save on USB stick , add to computer then upload , have not come across an issue when doing it this way

    What's the story with boot displaying, I have aa2 +, I'm running hyperion 3 and my LCD displays channel name, is it a different image?

    The VFD display for the AA2+ is brand new and the drivers have just been released and are only starting to get put into images ,

    One of the lads above has done so but the image is not loading correctly onto the box although hopefully this is just an upload error.

    Only the very latest batch of AA+ boxes have the new VFD, that makes 3 revision Alien 2's
    AA, AA+ and now AA+new VFD.

    Have just taken a backup to USB key and flashed it onto my AA in the sitting room, it booted fine (green screens once then boots fine after restart like I said above). I'll upload it now with a completely different name


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭same ol sh1te


    Right, it's uploading as a zip this time and will appear in the Dropbox folder when done. When you boot it will green screen once, then boot fine. You'll need to go to hddmountmanager and enable a 256MB swapfile, this will create a file on your external hdd that will most likely not have been present. Let me know how it goes.

    Streaming is working from the sitting room box :confused:

    Right, I now have 2 satellite feeds on this new box can only use one tuner for $ channels, cannot record on one and watch another but works fine for free to air. I've seen it before, CA0-CA1 mapping, it's usually an easy fix, can someone post it

    I have CA0-CA1 mapping disabled on my hyperion image and I can record two channels etc.

    How do I go about it here, Hyperion has Blue Panel, it's easy to sort

    Right, have it sorted, 2 $ channels play/stream together on this box. The fix for anyone not wanting to re-flash is to edit the oscam.conf and set boxtype = duckbox. I'll update the image now and re-upload
