if you change your system language to arabic, you should see it display some arabic text in your menus. As the replacement font is set correctly in that skin.

But you need to understand how translations work. Every screen/plugin needs the PO language files that lists the alternative language words.

Epg is pulled normally from Rytec or IPTV provider. This will be in English and doesn't get translated on the fly. There are old plugins like youtube epg translator that will translate epg via Google translate.

As for subtitles dont know exactly how that works but in the main settings there should be settings to change audio and subtitles primary languages. Never changed them so cant be if any more assistance there. Especially as i have never used openpli which is totally different than most builds i use.

send a screenshot of what is wrong with your subtitiles.

and which one are you using

DVB or teletext

..and you deleted the <subtitles> section in that skin

skin.xml

<subtitles>

<sub font="Regular;35" name="Subtitle_TTX" shadowColor="shadow" shadowOffset="3,3" />

<sub font="Regular;35" foregroundColor="grey" name="Subtitle_Regular" shadowColor="shadow" shadowOffset="3,3" />

<sub font="Replacement;35" foregroundColor="grey" name="Subtitle_Bold" shadowColor="shadow" shadowOffset="3,3" />

<sub font="Regular;35" foregroundColor="orange" name="Subtitle_Italic" shadowColor="shadow" shadowOffset="3,3" />

</subtitles>

that is using Regular as the font.

Regular is defined in the <font> section

<font filename="EkselanceXE/fonts/Style1.ttf" name="Regular" scale="100" />

then strangely it is using Replacement font for bold.

<font filename="ae_AlMateen.ttf" name="Replacement" replacement="1" scale="100" />

basically the skinner is having a mare.

Just delete that entire <subtitles> section out of the skin.xml then it will use the default fonts for subtitles.

Then also add back into the <font> section

<font name="Subtitlefont" filename="/usr/share/fonts/nmsbd.ttf" scale="90"/>

see its easy when you know how ;)

/etc/init.d/softcam stop

python myscript.py

/etc/init.d/softcam start

was all I needed. thank you.

What I am basically asking is what is the bash script command to restart oscams, and cccams,

because I cannot work it out with this new plugin :thumbup:

So what about if the internet drops out, or a userscript uses a killall -9 oscam-emu command ;) and needs to restart the cam without having to go into the softcams menu every bloody day

What about a global fix to test if cams have stopped and then automatically restart them.

If you don't crash your box at least once a week, you are watching too much tv. Play and experiment a little :)

a box stopping at 49% is usually a skin error.

Go into menu... system..log settings

enable debug logs... yes

handle python crashes... no

crash at skin error for debug reasons? no

Then next time your box gets stuck

ftp into your box (ask if you don't know how to do that)

and your last debug/crash logs live in

/home/root/logs

from the last log, you should be able to see what caused the boot loop.

Fix the error or delete the skin and you will come out of the bootloop. No need to reflash.

And curious? if using sat tv, why do you need to rename the channels.

Edit your channel names via the channel select screen then.

Press TV button on your remote.

Enter a bouquet

Press Menu

(2) Rename Entry

Note if you have autobouquetmaker running this will probably override any name changes when it does an update.

Recommend turning off auotbouquetmaker and doing a manual scan periodically.

Cable? Sat? IPTV? Box? Which Image?

Quote from HDaddict

Thanks for the amazing plugin, super useful on my VU+ Solo2 running OpenBlackhole!

Is there a way to have PICONS (channel logos) directly from the IPTV source, similar to what we have on android apps? It's a real nightmare to work with iptv channels and picons on Enigma2!

Thanks again

Not in my plugin.

My plugin is a bouquet maker that uses existing enigma2 components.
It is not a built in player where you can download picons on the fly.

It is relative easy to code in downloading picons, but it comes with many problems. Therefore I have no plans to do it.

1) Some iptv providers are absolutely huge. Meaning potentially you could be downloading thousands of picons. These would be uncompressed and potentially take up a lot of space on your external media.

2) Picons from IPTV are usually poor quality

3) Picons from IPTV are not the standard size of enigma2 picons. Enigma2 on lots of images resize picons badly. Therefore an additional python library is need to resize the picons into a usuable format.

4) Picons have to be renamed to the name of the channel for use in enigma2. This brings in its own problems with existing picon names and if the user has chosen to use Rytec naming. As this will override any proper existing picon sets.

5) etc etc

I could actually write a sister plugin for downloading iptv picons for your provider, but got plenty of other things to do on my to do list at the moment.

And if you are UK based and mainly want UK picons for your provider we already have a solution for that.

Use Rytec UK EPG
Replace UK channel names in bouquets with swap names

use my other plugin epiconizer to download UK picons
E2Piconizer - Picon Downloader/Creator

Maybe try a FHD skin as you are using an FHD box.

Are you using a heavy graphical skin?

If your box is running out of memory interactions will slow down.

I just tried screengrabber it does indeed only save a black screen.

Just use openwebif. its easier :)

have you tried it with less days.

step up from 3 days and see if its a memory issue.

It's quite power hungry this plugin

most systems are usually something like

setup > software management > install local extension

or just stick the ipk on a memory stick and place in your box and it should prompt if you want to install it

are you trying to install an IPK or download from plugin feeds
