OpenATV 7.6 – Discussion & New Features

Just a question please. If I install the actual (beta) version of Openatv 7.6, what happens when the image will become "official"? Must I reinstall the image from scratch or I will be able to simply live update?Thanks.

kudos to OPENATv team


it runs really well and is stable

now recordings work with two programs at the same time and it's easy to watch TV while recording a program

and the autotimer works as it should

Then I would quickly make a backup of this image

Good evening, I have installed it.exteplayer3_179_armv7ahf.ipk However, when I update my software, it shows the version exteplayer3_179+git141 Is there any way to not update the exteplayer3

Is there any way to not update the exteplayer3

- to hold exteplayer3 give telnet command:

opkg flag hold exteplayer3

- to unhold (release) exteplayer3 give telnet command:

opkg flag user exteplayer3

Thanks passata

After reading your post, I thought they had solved an old problem and I wanted to try it out. On dm920 with FBC tuner set as a twinsat with two sat descents, it is not possible to open a PIP window or record and see another program.

I repeat my previous question: If I install the actual (beta) version of Openatv 7.6, what happens when the image will become "official"? Must I reinstall the image from scratch or I will be able to simply live update?

I ask this because I must reflash my receiver and I do not want make the job twice.

So if the beta image can't be upgraded to official, I prefer to wait the first official 7.6 release. What do you think? Thanks.

As Copper_Can , mentioned yes there can be python changes but with openatv you can flash online i,e, new image and restore settings.

do you not have a multiboot reciever then you can aways flash onto new slot to try but always make backups first.
