Hello all I have an amiko alien triple tuner running the open atv image from October. All goes well for around a week or two and then the box starts to slow down and become unresponsive. A reboot doesn't work and cache flush is installed and running. There is a hdd connected in ext 3 mounted with a swap file. The only way to resolve this is to re flash the box. The cross epg was causing issues so I un installed it and use xmltv importer which works fine. Does anyone have any suggestions why the box is running slow. Could it be cache or ram issues

It sounds like your memory may be filling up.
Make sure your epg is stored on your hdd.
It may run smoother if you can install a usb (as well as hdd) and have your picons/epg and swap file strored on it rather than hdd.
Your using your hdd only for timeshift/recording then. -
thanks for that. I know the cross epg loaded to the hdd and the xml tv importer goes there aswell. But when in that plugin i cant find a place to send the cross epg to. the plugin is xmltvimporter. i will change the swap file to the stick and mount that and see if i can change the path for the xml importer to there instead of the hdd. would i be better to re flash and again the plugins and re use cross epg as on that i could select the smaller usb for the cross epg

ok openatv on the alien2
sorry but its rubbish, theres defo a memory issue and nothing helps in the end it will slow down, and whatever you do dont ever update it or even change the skin
it looks like every 2 weeks or so it needs a reflash and start again
yes it looks nice and has everything, but thats no good if the dam thing doesnt work

Thanks for that. Any better images available then for the amiko

I've been using PKT Hyperion on mine and its has made it a fairly good and usable box.
