Amiko Alien2 / SAB / GM / ST7162 ENIGMA Discussion Thread

championc

This thread is for discussion of the ENIGMA operating system on ST7162 Based Satellite & Terrestrial Combo Receivers

The boxes covered would be the
Amiko Alien2
SAB Unix Tripple
GM Triplex

Enigma is a Linux based alternative to the default Spark operating system on these boxes. Enigma is a more customisable OS and provides the ability to add plugins which can accomplish many tasks enabling users to have a box which might look and perform like a Sky box, giving a 7 day EPG and an alternative to series link

A detailed FAQ type post with most installation instructions is below in Post 2

You sure if that, what you describe is exactly what happens when you save to internal flash, it even makes the box lock up and freeze and the epg doesn't survive a reboot. Delete the files and see does it make them again.

Tried that with a clean copy of OpenATV no other plugins installed, Rebooted and it worked no issues rebooted again and its gone.

For enigma2 images you could try Rats Bouquets.

I installed rats_bouquets_latest.ipk by using 7-Zip to unpack it until I got the /usr directory then just dragged and dropped that into the root of the enigma2 installation in FileZilla. Then rebooted and went into its entry in the Plugin Menu.

That's an alternative to Autobouquets not CrossEPG

I was looking for this plugin? I couldn't find it in the download section. would you have a link?

I mean - reboot to standby. I'm using the box simply as a VU+ server with XBMC clients. For whatever reasons, the box reboots every couple of days and plays RTE1 (or whatever channel it's set to start in) and therefore the clients can't use alternate transponders.

I think I have this sorted, I had to change the time settings to Transponder Time instead of NTP. I Rebooted a few times now and the EPG is loading (On my phone and laptop) anyway.

Some of the images (e.g. HDMU) have support for the Freesat EPG built in. Runs away in the background and populates the EPG after about 5-10 mins following power up.

Hyperion 4, I've tried OpenAtv a few times but I always end up reverting. It will be great but needs more time

Is Hyperion the HDMU website?

My auto bouquets times out when downloading and wipes all my bouquets, I then have to re copy my bouquets back onto the boxing using dream box edit.

Hi, quick question - I bought a Sab Combo with Enigma installed - I like the machine so far with the exception of the channels - is it possible to organise the channels on the box? I have googled and can't find an answer. Thanks in advance.

Dreamboxedit is for configuring your channel order and boquets on the box
not really got anything to do with your hard drive

Have you plugged in a wifi dongle to the usb port
If so you can try
menu
setup
system
network
network wizard

The box does not need to be connected to the internet
all you need is a pc and a network cable connected to the lan port on the rear of the box

Download & install dreambox edit
Assign a fixed ip address to your box it will probably be under settings / network
Assign a similar IP address to your pc
So if you have 192.168.1.10 as your box & 192.168.1.15 as you pc
connect your lan cable between the lan port on your box and the lan port of your pc
open up dreambox edit
go to options and put in the IP address that you gave the box
google what the root password is for the sab enigma image that your using

in dreamboxedit go to file and ftp download
this should retrive the current channell list and boquets from your box

in the right hand side of the program you can drag and drop the channels where you like
when done save
go to file upload and send it back to the box
restart enigma
and check
