    Im sorry to have to report that the new v7 patch breaks the fallback tuner. So dont use it.



    v6 works fine but v7 wont stay connected. The log states no data from stream source, then disconnects and then reconnects again constantly making it impossible to use.

    Nope thats python 3.10


    So without the py files which the original poster has chosen not to include it will just give Bad Magic Number.


    And as yet its impossible to decompyle python 3.9 and above to get them, and I needed these to make this backwards compatible, which again is something the original poster has chosen not to do.

    Has anyone managed to get TalkSport working using this ?


    If so how ?


    I couldnt get any IPTV to work either using the format from the post above, i must have tried 20 different providers.

    The only difference here is that the latest Ncam has been patched to use libcurl.


    You can achieve the same results with Oscam if you patch that to use libcurl too. Or if you are unable to build and patch your own Oscam versions, then simply use a BASH script to download and install the Softcam.Key files from various GIT's to your keys folder every 15 mins or so using cron. You simply then just setup a hotkey to your job manager and then just pressing one key on your remote will run the script and open AFN for you.

    Interesting read this.


    It would be nice if it were possible to do exactly the same thing with the image EPG


    I do use the EPG Translator plugin and I fixed the html parsing errors many months ago, but having the image translate the EPG automatically would be a massive step forward. I also use the TMDB plugin to translate the EPG data, invoked from the yellow button in the single EPG screen, but for some unknown reason this fails to translate Eastern European languages.

    Well it that works, then just build Oscam without the time stamps. Theyre not even needed really and should not give any ill affects.


    The problem arises because Oscam starts before E2 has finshed booting and if the Oscam time is wrong its applied to the E2 time and the image doesnt resync with the transponder. If stopping Oscam has not fixed it for the original poster, then he too should remove it, then reboot, let the image sync with the transponder and the reinstall Oscam again.


    All problems solved then.

    As far as I'm aware its all Oscam versions. Its an age old problem which has always been as issue. Once a month is extreme though, I get it perhaps once a year and always after I've been lazy and shut down the box incorrectly, ie using the switch at the back after a constant spinner rather than booting up the PC and using telnet.

    You didnt do it correctly, Try again.


    Its the clock inside Oscam causing the issue so this has to be stopped to allow the image to sync the transponder time when it reboots.


    Dont restart Oscam from the webif, completely stop it and then reboot. It can sometimes take a few attempts.

    I use a my own heavily modified 720 Skin and as 720 skins are no longer supported I cannot use the lastest 1.6 verson because I really cannot be arsed adding back 720 support for a plugin I use just on a Saturday morning to see what Premier League games are on that day.


    So instead I've fixed the crash that everyone had when using v1.5 and I will stick with that. Anyone else who also uses a 720 skin and wants to continue to do so, needs to send the attached file to /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Components/Renderer/ then restart E2 and your crash with v1.5 will be gone.


    If anyone can be bothered to add back 720 support though its quite easy to do if you have the time. Simply remove the catch in the plugin.py and then just add back all the multicontent skin settings for 720. This might be a nice task for someone just starting to learn about coding skins.

    Does anyone know the correct syntax to add more than just one custom channel ?


    I've tried everything I can possibly think of and I cannot add more than one.

    Usefull plugin, however for the Premier League its doesnt include some channels that show the Live games, such as Spor TV on 42E and the Digitalb Sports channels on 16E or any of the Viasat channels on 1W.


    It only seems to cover a particular countries main satellite provider which is a shame. But it is very usefull for looking at upcoming fixtures and dates.
