  • E2Iplayer (Iptv player) discussion

    Yes but not in PurE2, for reasons mentioned above.


    We have our own building GIT and it is not the same as OE-A - in some ways it is more advanced, definitely not the same when it comes to FFmpeg, SSL and so on - and they are all essential for the proper functioning of PurE2.

  • Free IPTV for spark7162 and All basics needs

    1) SWAP file, in this case (as opposed to SWAP partition) in Linux is an addition to your machine's RAM. Since RAM is rather limited in old machine's, we need an additional RAM in the form of SWAP.


    Your STB's RAM will not increase if you just install the plugin.


    You must start the SWAP Manager 2 plugin and activate it by creating a SWAP file (at least 256MB) using

    -green button, after which

    -it will ask you where you want it created (choose your USB memory stick or HDD/SSD you have plugged into your machine)

    -how big you want it to be (as mentioned 256mB or maybe 512MB?)

    -confirm and

    -be patient while it is working
    -when finished, make it 'autoloading' at E2 restart by pressing the yellow button,

    -restart E2.


    2) KiddaC and Lululla write plugins for IPTV part, mostly.


    2a) Also, one can use Stalker E2 plugin in some cases (not all machines have it).


    Alien 1/2 and clones/OEM machines do not have Stalker! So, you would need to use of of special plugins by the authors I just mentioned. But I do not know if and how well they would work in the old lady, sorry...


    3) Because I am not using IPTV services, other than in:


    -Ciefp's channel list, at the bottom of Favourites list (blue button, when in channel list, which btw one can add to) or

    -E2iPlayer (in some sections of the plugin - but I stopped using it some time ago) or

    -Kodi (not sure of "Light Kodi"), for instance "Live TV Kodi Serbia" plugin from within Kodi.


    Kodi does not exist for old machines, as it is rather demanding and they can't do it, HW-wise!


    Hence "Lite Kodi" was written. But I do not use it, so I can't help with that, sorry. Maybe it does work in Alien1/2?


    E2iPlayer certainly does work in Alien2 but I advise you to use the one from our repository and not to update E2iPlayer from within itself - but only from PurE2 SW update, which is safe, which I explained in some detail both in PurE2 section, as well as in E2iPlayer thread!


    A note: in other words, other than various, usually illegal, "IPTV providers" one can find cheaply around the net, you can also find IPTV channels in those 3 instance I just mentioned (not sure about "Lite Kodi but OK, the principle is there).


    4) But I do not see the point of it all, if one has a satellite dish/system, as this is way superior in terms of quality and it is not heavily dependent on net servers, how many users are on an IPTV service and so on....


    P.S. Please, do not PM me - this is why we have the forum! All your questions should be put here... ;)

  • E2Iplayer (Iptv player) discussion

    Ha, sorry: I am not using E2iPlayer for a while now, so I don't remember which repo we're using in our version, Mario's or Bambi's - sorry for the possible confusion...


    Either way, the plugin will change E2 system and other libs, as it is aggressive, if you update from within the E2iPlayer and not from PurE2 SW update!


    -----One more time: an explanation of the differences between PurE2 version of E2iPlayer and all the other versions------


    Now, given we use advanced versions of FFmpeg, SSL, GCC and so on, usually ahead of E2iPlayer and other images, this means PurE2 might NOT work as intended, as well as it is capable after update from E2iPlayer itself. As I warned you, PurE2 is a well integrated system, usually ahead of the curve, by comparison to other images... terrajoe is in charge of that and he setup our version of E2iPlayer.


    So, we are making our version of E2iPlayer from one of the GITs (mario or bambi?). This is not a version you see in ipk format!


    Important! Franc discovered there were some security flaws, if memory serves in TS player, which exposed one's box, which our coders have then removed from our build, of course.

    So, our version is safer to use but the downside is that sometimes all the current changes might not be 100% up-to-date.


    My advice would be not to update the plugin from E2iPlayer but either

    1) wait for PurE2 SW update (subject to Terra's free time and energy) or if you can't wait

    2) update E2iPlayer manually via FTP, as instructed by Panda555 or other colleagues who do this all the time...


    Good luck! :)

  • E2Iplayer (Iptv player) discussion

    But beware: E2iPlayer is written in such way so as to aggressively overwrite the libs already present in an E2. Which means this will no longer be PurE2 as intended!!! And it is a carefully integrated system...


    You have been warned...

  • Recommend an enigma2 image for Wetek Play 2

    It takes a lot more than the usual build for these problems to be surmounted...


    And it is a collaboration of PurE2 and Japhar guys...


    So, as I said, for something better you'll have to wait for our talent to finish working on DB One/Two and then hope they can be bothered, as that old machine was built using older environment, which they no longer use....


    Alternatively, wait for OpenPLi to fix it all... And good luck with that...:chuckle::tongue1:

  • Alien1/2 or STi 7111/7162 PurE2 flashing and setup procedure...

    Btw, the videos above are done with the


    -old Alien2 with a bit of an "old wound" (capacitors are cranky, so hiccups occur occasionally...)

    -rather large channels list by Ciefp (some 14 or so satellites and IPTV channels, streaming films, radio and so on)

    -USB 3.0 stick as an HDD

    -latest PurE2 v. 6.5

    -no Flash Expander

    -SWAP Manager 2 (with 256MB SWAP file)

    -no picons

    -no EPG Import, only whatever I get from the satellite

    -some FNC plugins (not all but even those few I installed they got me the following....)

    -Media Player 2 (the usual version I deleted!), FFmpeg, SubSupport, ServiceApp...


    And it all works, as shown above, if a little slowly...


    See some screenshots... ;)

    OK, that's enough for now, for all our Alien and co. of (ab)users of old ladies, hehe...:cool1:
