  • change ccam.cfg file without using ftp

    Dreamexplorer plugin allows you to transfer files.


    I don't see the point unless the receiver has no network connection. By the time you copy the file over, renove the USB stick, connect to STB, access plugin, locate file location, highlight, copy, slect tarhger location, select paste... You would have been done already.


    ANother plugin is tuxbox commander (tux com) (if it is available/works on your image).

  • change ccam.cfg file without using ftp

    Some images have samb pre-installed. IOf so, you can use "my computer" and edit that way. I would also suggest you install Notepad++ and make that your default text editor.


    Openvix does not have samba pre-installed. You can do so in the network menus
    Menu > Setup > System > Network > Samba Setup

    Quote from master G

    We just added Digital Point Sphinx Search which will be a massive improvement over the default vbulletin search. Thanks to jim1985 for helping with the installation..


    Firstly, thanks for fixing the issue with the forum being down.


    Over the last several days, the search facility is not working. Could it be related to the new software?


    This is one of the errors after a search

    Code
    connection to localhost:9312 failed (errno=111, msg=Connection refused)

  • Commando 15.1d for DM500S or DM500C Release image 11/03/2016

    Sorry, but two bugs reported on DM500S so far and here are the new files that fix them. Just knock off the .txt extensions before you FTP them to the indicated folders to overwrite the 11/03/2016 files of the same name:


    /var/etc/custom_sort.new


    (Bug: ABs failed to write new custom_sort file after editing Bouquets in BE )



    /var/tuxbox/config/menu_get-epg.conf

    (bug: No GetEPG Wizard Menu; fix- MarkieVee)


    Cheers- AL

  • Update Wetek play

    Sd card formatter does not resize partitions.


    I have used Gparted on a linux machine, deleted the partitions and made one large partition, formatted to fat 32. I have repeated my steps and now on a brand new install of openelec.


    Many thanks.

  • Update Wetek play

    I am doing as you are. However the uSD card is 64GB and exfat.


    8GB SD cards have been partitioned for use as OpenPLi, OPenVix and Pbnigma. I don't know how to restore/repartition them to full size. I mistakenly used the OpenElecInstaller on another uSD card I used for flashing. Should have realise dit is just a modified version of Image writer.


    I got the receiver second hand. I'm pretty sure it was Android, but not 100% sure.

  • Update Wetek play

    Installation of openelec per video fails.


    Can somone talk me through it please. I have downloaded both OpenELEC-WeTek_Play.arm-6.0.3.tar and OpenELEC-WeTek_Play.arm-6.0.3.zip


    Neither is detected during the recovery process

  • Update Wetek play

    I am not really getting on with the wetek play. I would be grateful for any assistance. I got told by Wetek that they do not support third party images and if I wanted to use a USB tuner, I would have to use the official images.


    I normally run Pbnigma (microSD card) on it. From time to time the updates mess things up and E2 does not work. I was unable to find an answr on how to backup the "kodi installation/settings" within Pbnigma so that I could flash a working Pbnigma and restore the Kodi installation. The dual boot is perfect solution for me. However, I am stuck on updating to this.


    I have openelec 6.01 on the nand. I failed to install/setup tvheadend, there was no live tv settings to enable it. so gave up on it. Version 6.03 is out so would like to try again on that.
    However, on their site it says you must have the latest android running first. "To install on SD-Card you MUST update WeTek's Android software to the latest OTA version first" Re-reading it for the sake of this thread, I realise that I will be installing to nand. 11


    I have downloaded both
    DB-J710-wetek-ota-2016-03-07_11-10-53.zip checksum is 66d528d9bdbfe0e1074f668dcbfe3429
    WeTek Play OS v1.1.7 (clean installation).zip checksum is 1bb5de4c82e1e1492989925fcf2afd08


    My first step is to understand what "WeTek Play 1.1.7" is. Does it run in the background and OpenElec/Android run on top?


    My second step is to get the dual booting to work.



    I have tried to follow this guide, but it does not detect an update package

    I am struggling with this, so simplified and stage by stage instructions (even though it is intuitive) will be greatly appreciated.


    Thanks in advance

  • Commando 15.1d for DM500S or DM500C Release image 11/03/2016

    Just over three months since C15.1c release on 25 November 2015, but hardly a day has gone by since then without ongoing dev, ready for this C15.1d release. Nothing major, nor dramatic, it's all been about:


    • Optimization of scripts and daemons for increased speed and robustness
    • Updated Helpfiles (including a set for DM500C), previously neglected, doh)
    • New SML Menu for DM500C (thanks, deejay!) with new Helpfile for it
    • Bang up to date channel listings for both tuner types, as of today 12/03/16
    • Vastly improved disaster recovery measures for wrong SML choice on cable
    • New backdrop for DM500S Radio Mode / ABs Fast Mode / GetEPG Load
    • New backdrop for DM500C Radio Mode / ABs VM (as ISS screenie NOT cable)
    • Accent characters (like RTÉ) in the OSD now handled correctly on DM500S
    • Disaster prevention on DM500C- won't allow ABs VM until SML is correct!
    • User sort now saved for DM500S ABs when toggling Parental on and off


    ...along with ongoing testing and feedback on the various modules, thanks to our team of Usual Suspects, LOL! Thanks to them, and for their input and suggestions. No names, no packdrill, but they know who they are...


    As always- ENJOY! Renny and AL :beer:


    ps: Some feedback which is so thin on the ground as to be non-existant is from DM500C users over there in the Republic of Ireland. Does this image work for you? Do we require a new cables.xml and helpfile for RoI? We have no way of testing...

  • mgcamd for vo solo 4k with vix image

    The binary has been placed in /usr/bin/ Openvix uses /usr/softcams/



    Use 7zip to extract it twice,
    Transfer the mgcamd file /usr/softcams and change file properties/attributes to 755. It should show up in softcam manager then. You may need to transfer the config files.
