    Can you add a function that automatically loads the information when the plugin starts, without having to press ‘Auto EPG every time

    I´ve integrated it for myself, useful If you start the plugin with hotkey, furthermore with CH+/CH- you can switch channels inside the plugin with automatically loading infornations you can start the plugin from channel selection menu as well (just press Menu key in channel selection), if ciefp doesn´t mind I can upload plugin.py, I just make suggestions, idea just occured to me, I don´t mean to belittle his work

    I have nothing against new ideas, of course we can add it to the next version. I do everything openly, all my plugins are open, I receive all suggestions that will improve the plugin.

    Yes, I thought about it. This is only the first version of the plugin, I still plan to work on this plugin.


    The plan is to add a player for subtitles, support for epg so that the plugin picks up the name of the movie or series from the current channel. The current focus is only on one source until I develop a fully functional plugin, so if I succeed in that, the next plan is to add support, maybe with subdl apikey, etc...


    I have already written many times that I am not a coder, I do everything via artificial intelligence, of course, the ideas are my own, I say what and how I want. This is the 30th plugin I've done in a year, so I still have ideas that I haven't realized. We'll see how the situation develops. Artificial has progressed with great strides in a year since I started working with plugins. I started working on this plugin yesterday, and today I already installed the first version. I've learned a lot, but these are still simple plugins.

    ciefp added a new version:

    All openpli images and similar ones are impoverished, which means that they removed some things to make the image lighter. Unlike openatv and let's say pure2, these are already complete images that contain everything. I researched this problem a bit, but I didn't find a solution, and the problem is in the image because they removed some components binding to the network connection.


    Main cause:

    Missing packages for mount SMB/NFS

    For SMB/CIFS: Missing cifs-utils or samba-client package (which includes the mount.cifs command). Without this, mount -t cifs will not work and you will get an error like "mount: unknown filesystem type 'cifs'" or "command not found".

    For NFS: Missing nfs-common or nfs-client (for mount.nfs command). Similarly, "unknown filesystem type 'nfs'" error.

    OpenPLi often drops these packages from the base image because they are not essential for basic TV functionality, but are available in the online feed.


    Other possible causes:

    Kernel modules: If the OpenPLi kernel is not compiled with CIFS/NFS support (e.g. the cifs.ko or nfs.ko modules are not included), the mount will fail even with the packages. But this is rare, as most Enigma2 kernels have these modules.

    Busybox limitations: OpenPLi uses Busybox for many commands (to make it easier), but the Busybox mount version may not have full CIFS/NFS support. OpenATV/Pure2 use fuller versions of the tools.

    Dependencies on Samba or NFS server: If the laptop is Windows, check if SMBv1 is enabled (OpenPLi may not support older versions without packages). For Linux laptops, the NFS server must be configured with exports.


    Firewall or permissions:

    But this is not image specific - more for the laptop side.


    Solution for OpenPLi:

    Install missing packages via telnet/SSH or opkg:

    Connect to the box via telnet/SSH (e.g. telnet IP_ADDRESS_BOX, user: root, password: empty or default).

    Update feed: opkg update


    Install for SMB:

    opkg install cifs-utils or opkg install samba-client (if not available, check opkg list | grep cifs or opkg list | grep samba).


    Install for NFS:

    opkg install nfs-utils-client or opkg install nfs-common.

    Restart box: reboot

    If the packages are not in the feed, you can manually download them from the OpenPLi feed (e.g. from http://feeds.openpli.org/openpli-8/mips32el/) and install them via opkg install /tmp/paket.ipk.


    Alternative:

    Switch to OpenATV or Pure2

    📊 CiefpTMDBSearch 2.1

    New:

    Seasons and Episodes, the plugin can now display all seasons and their episodes for series.

    The plugin now also has a gallery to display all available posters and backdrops images.


    The plugin now has:

    ✅ Auto EPG search - automatic recognition of the current program

    ✅ Advanced search - movies, series, actors, directors

    ✅ Popular/Trending lists - what is currently popular

    ✅ Cast Explorer - cast research

    ✅ Seasons and Episodes - detailed overview of TV series and episodes

    ✅ TMDB and IMDB ratings - additional information

    ✅ Backdrop Gallery - preview of background images

    ✅ Poster Gallery - preview of posters

    ✅ Settings - API keys, language, cache


    🖼️ Quick guide: How to use the poster and backdrop viewer

    The new gallery is easy to use. Here is a quick guide:


    Accessing the gallery:

    After loading the movie or series data, press the MENU button on your remote control.

    In the menu, select the 🖼️ Backdrop Gallery or 🎬 Poster Gallery option.


    Gallery navigation:

    Use the YELLOW and BLUE buttons (or the left/right arrows) to move through the images.


    The GREEN button takes you back to the home screen or switches between the backdrop and poster galleries (if available).

    The status bar at the top shows which image you are out of a total (e.g., "6/185").


    Close the gallery:

    Press the RED button or OK/Exit to return to the main plugin screen.


    💡 Tips and notes

    Caching: Images are automatically downloaded and saved to your chosen cache folder (set in Settings). This speeds up the display the next time you open them.

    Language settings: In Settings, you can change the language for the descriptions (language). This also affects the language of the data you get from the TMDB database.

    Performance: If the plugin starts to work slowly due to a full cache, you can clear it via MENU > More Options > 🗑️ Clear Cache.

    The new gallery is a great addition that allows users to fully experience viewing the visual content of a movie or series.

    The header shouldn't be displayed now because I switched the skin to fullhd.

    The way it is now, it should be displayed. It's better like this in fullhd, many of you use various images and also various skins that are not the default on those images.

    I can't adjust the plugin for various skins. That should be done by those who make skins to adapt their skin to various plugins. My plugin is primarily intended to work with the default skin. I'm not saying it won't work with other skins, but I don't have time to test it.
