    Dear urie

    Thank you for the clarification; this makes understanding easier and avoid misunderstanding. I am the only version that displays the version number on the plugin screen.

    dear @urie

    I do not know where the problem is. I am a hobbyist, not a professional, and I am doing my best to make the plugin work without any issues, for my benefit and for all users.


    It no longer belongs to Dorik1972; I have modified most of the code , open and try to take a look to the files codes. Thanks Lululla for your great support.

    Dorik1972's version worked only with the Open Source, and encountered many problems and crash when using it with the Dreambox.

    Please try my modified version with the Dreambox now, and I think you will like it.



    All the complaints that appeared since the first release were not caused by the plugin itself, but by users who had installation issues, did not remove old versions properly, or were using corrupted images with existing problems.


    I publish the plugin, and whoever finds it useful can continue using it. Anyone who does not like it can simply avoid using it and remove it.


    If you want me to stop releasing any new modifications, I have no problem with that. The plugin works perfectly for me.



    An important point in my modification, I have unified most of the files in the Dream and Open Source versions. The only difference is in one single file: EPGImport.


    I have added some features that were not present in previous Dreambox versions, such as " Clearing current Epg "" and ""Kill Running iport on start ""


    Isn't it good to have different versions with different features for the benefit of the user, so they can choose the version that suits them best?"



    I do no not care if the plugin be at feed or not, will not add star for me.


    Regards to everyone.

    Hi,

    Now version 2.6.2.

    I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my friend Lululla for his valuable support and significant contribution in delivering this plugin in its proper form. He played a pivotal role in its development, and without his dedicated efforts, we would not have reached this level of quality. He is an outstanding mentor from whom we have learned many useful and inspiring things, and he has helped us produce remarkable plugins. My deepest thanks go to him for everything he has done.


    The plugin has been tested on Python 2.7 and Python 3,

    as well as on Dreambox and VU+ devices,

    Tested on several Image Dream Box and Open Source images, and it works excellently.

    Now I have solved the problem,was an IP issue.

    Sorry for bothering and BTW thanks to the excellent update of the plugin.

    (but it rewrites epgimport folder...no prob. for me though..have backup)

    I’m glad the issue has been resolved.


    Regarding the "" etc\epgimport \"" folder, you must keep a backup because it will be deleted if the plugin is removed.

    Hi

    Did you read the error message?

    How can you install a plugin without placing the plugin file in the /tmp folder?

    Br

  • EPGImport plugin Modded by iet8

    Hi,

    Now version is 2.5.

    Many thanks and appreciation to my talented friend Lululla for his efforts and help.

    The plugin has been tested on Dreambox and VU+ devices, as well as on several images such as Gemini, Merlin, and OpenATV, with both Python 2 and Python 3.


    A new source has been added inside the EPG plugin screen, along with some minor code improvements to enhance performance. A screenshot from the Gemini image is also attached.


    I would like to remind you once again: any previous version of the plugin must be completely removed before installing the new version.


    Here are the removal commands in order to ensure full cleanup of old installations:


    Code
    opkg remove enigma2-plugin-extensions-enigma2-plugin-extensions-epgimport
opkg remove enigma2-plugin-extensions-epgimport
rm -rf /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/EPGImport


    for Gemini images, please avoid installing through gCommander.

    To ensure a successful installation, it is recommended to use Telnet and install using the following command as shown below


    Code
    dpkg -i --force-overwrite /tmp/*.deb
opkg install --force-overwrite /tmp/*.ipk

    Dear My friend

    This long output you saw isn’t an error — it’s simply the normal result of running:

    Code
    apt update

    This command updates the package list from the servers (repositories). If there are connection issues or a server isn’t responding, you will see many lines such as:

    • Ign = The repository was ignored (usually because it has no GPG signature or the server isn’t responding)
    • Hit = Successfully reached the repository
    • Get = Downloading a file from the repository
    • Waiting for headers = The device is trying to connect to the server
    • Connecting to ... = Connection attempt
    • Release.gpg Ign = The repository has no signature file (very common in Dreambox repos)

    There are no serious errors in the log you sent.


    All these lines simply mean the device is having trouble reaching some servers like:

    • download.blue-panel.com
    • dreambox4u.com
    • apt.fury.io

    And therefore, the plugin has nothing to do with that.



    This happens frequently on Dreambox devices because many repositories are unstable or slow.


    Your command includes:


    Code
    apt update && dpkg -i --force-overwrite /tmp/*.deb

    Which means:

    • Update the repositories (the output you saw)
    • Then install any .deb file in tmp

    Since you didn’t show the final dpkg result, I can’t tell whether dpkg reported any errors. The part you posted is only related to apt, not the installation.


    Finally and summary:

    • The messages you saw are completely normal
    • There are no errors that would cause system issues
    • Some repositories are slow or unresponsive
    • Your system is still functioning normally
    • This log does not contain any error messages
    • The plugin was installed successfully.

    How did you install it? I put it in /data/plugin_vari and used gCommander, green button. On a clean image, I had the same result several times. Version 2.0 also

    when you try to install try to use telnet with this command

    Code
    dpkg -i --force-overwrite /tmp/*.deb

opkg install --force-overwrite /tmp/*.ipk
