    I used the latest settings and the latest version of the abertis script and astra.conf file and it wasn’t working. Only the files attached by adrianosro73 are working for me which is great and for which I am very grateful. Anyway it’s solved and I am happy. Thank you all very much. I can still watch the Ukrainian channels with a different image. But anyway I don’t understand the point about this Ukrainian T2-M1 package if most of these channels are available FTA (in better quality!!!) anyway. I think the package has only one exclusive channel that is not available anywhere else on satellite

    Thank you, it’s working now I can select the image but I still have a question:


    I want to select slot 2 and it asks me Do you want to backup settings? I don’t know what to choose, yes or no?


    And the 2nd question is:


    Please select what to do after flash of the following image:

    openatv.blabla.zip


    Only Flash Backup Image

    Do not flash image


    What to select? It’s a confusing question.


    I don’t want to lose image in slot1.

    Dear adriano, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart !!!


    You are the first one who has really helped me !!! You sent me your image but I couldn't install it.


    Anyway but what REALLY helped me was the etc.zip that you were so kind to share here with us/me just a few moments ago !!!


    I copied your abertis, astra.conf and systctl.conf files to my receiver, rebooted my OpenATV image and now the channels are

    working !!! I don't know why your files are working for me but not the ones from the chiefp settings are not.


    I was about to give up because I already invested a lot of time into getting these channels working. That was the last hope

    I had your etc.zip and it worked. Weird!!!


    The only thing that stopped working are that Ukrainian channels on 5 East but they are not important as most of them are

    available FTA anyway.

    Hi


    Somebody sent me a backup image of his image that I would like to install on my Octagon SF8008 to try.


    I am not an expert but I would like to try to explain to you what my setup is.


    I have multiboot enabled and on slot 1 I have my OpenATV image installed. It is the newest version.


    The image I was sent came in a zip file. The zip file when unpacked contains an octagon folder and within the octagon folder an

    sf8008 folder that has the following files: rootfs.tar.bz2, force_sf8008_READ.ME, imageversion and kernel.bin.


    I copied the zip file to a FAT32 formatted USB stick that the receiver is able to recognise. I also unzipped the zip file and copied

    the folders on the stick, too, just to be sure. So the stick has both the zip file and the unzipped folder structure on it.


    I cannot install the image via the recovery menu or somewhere via the menu of the OpenATV image. I would like to install

    the image into slot2 as I want to keep my original image.


    Can someone help me ?

    Wouldn't it be possible to create an image that would include a working image for the Abertis channels where everything is preconfigured ? I know that such things existed already. My friend can watch the Albertis channels on his Vu+ 4K Box thanks to such an image. That would be really nice. Maybe stel883 can help.


    Thank you!!! But I have Octagon SF8008

    No problem. I reinstalled everything and I really learnt a lot the last couple of days! I now also got Sky German icam working which is nice.


    But I still don't understand why abertis is not working. It doesn't make sense as I am using the correct settings and the Ukrainian MI-T2 channels on 5 East are working. Maybe somebody will be able to help me.

    I installed the Levi 45 multicam manager (last version December 2023 it seems) but I cannot seem to find an option anywhere to install a channel list. I can see config files for icam, etc., but no channel list, where ?


    Anyway it would be nice if I could get it running without an additional cam manager.

    The channel list are there ..if you have settings ,check that.. also after you get Arbettis running, you can delete the le i45 cam. manager and it will continue running

    Thank you for the help but i already deleted the manager. I didn't like it and it screwed up my OpenATV image in such a way that I couldn't uninstall it and fucked up my configuration. I now had to reimage my Octagon SF8008 from scratch.

    I have an update.


    I removed the openpli image because I only want to focus on one image, OpenATV.


    So what I did now on the OpenATV image I uninstalled astra-sm, reinstalled everything from scratch, copied chiefs settings.


    The Abertis channels still won’t open but I can now open the Ukrainian T2MI channels on 5 East so I guess that’s progress because they wouldn’t open before I reinstalled everything. I can open Rada, Test5 and Pershiy for example. So I am happy about that. That’s progress.

    Many thanks for your kind support and offer to help !!!


    Here are my answers to your questions:


    I have an Octagon SF8008 and I have tried it with two different image (OpenPli 9.0 and OpenATV 7.4).

    In the case of OpenPli I used the 2 separate astra config files that I got from this thread.


    1.) No, I have never been able to open these channels :(

    2.) Which cam version are you using? -> Oscam Emu 1.30 r11766-801@418f9d44 (OpenPli 9.0)

    Oscam Emu 1.20 r11726-799 (OpenATV 7.4 April 22nd, 2024)

    3.) Is the softcam key in its correct location? -> Yes. I am sure it is. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to open

    AFN (PowerVu) on 9 East and some other BISS encoded channels.

    4.) Yes I can open for example RTP3 and TVI Internacional on 30 West using the SoftCam file or I can also open Suspilne Sport and Suspilne Kultura on 5 East.

    5.) Yes I am using the lame.db file from the package created by chiefp (version 30.03.2024) I just tried again on both images, OpenATV and OpenPli, by copying the single lame.db file to etc/enigma2 whilst first using init 4 and then init3 commands.

    6.) Are you able to open any of the Ukrainian channels either on 23.5 E or 4.9E? -> I am sure you mean the package that it is the same on both positions that contains Rada for example, the T2-MI transponder. I tried it with chiefp's channel list on both images and the channels are not working. On the OpenPli I am getting the same error message as if I am trying to open the Abbertis channels: "No data on transponder! (Timeout reading PAT)"

    Sorry to be bothering you all again but I have tried it with OpenPli now. Signal strength is good.


    After following the guide step by step and replacing the two astra-sm configuration files with the ones

    provided here in this thread and after switching to one of the streamrelay channels I now have the

    following phenomenon:


    It now reads "No data on transponder! (Timeout reading PAT)"


    But I have sufficient signal strength and Oscam is able to find a key according to the logs so I don't understand it.


    Any ideas, please ?

    Hi


    Is anybody able to decrypt the French language TV5 channels on 1 West ?


    There is a key in my SoftCam.Key file for the small package (TV5 Pacifique, etc.) but the channels don't work.

    Hi


    I would really appreciate if somebody could help me please.


    First my set up:


    Octagon SF8008 with OpenATV 7,4


    I have good reception of 30 West at home.


    I have Oscam Emu running with correct SoftCam.Key


    ==================================================


    I followed the guide by ciefp at least 3 x times, I did everything as described, installed

    astra-sm, copied the abertis file and astra.conf to the suggested locations as well replaced the

    provided sysctl.conf file with the one that was already on the box.


    I also copied the channel list of course and when I switch to the channel list and select

    in the ciefp's streamrelay list for instance La 1 HD Extremadura [2025] it appears to be somehow

    working because Oscam emu is telling that it has found the right key for it. But the picture stays

    black. I restarrted the box several times - no changes. I redid the whole installation as described

    above 3-4 times but nothing has changed.


    When I go to Information in the OpenATV menu and click on Streaming Tuner Information it says:


    Client -1:


    Service reference: 1:0:1:BD1:EA74:1:CE42BD6:0:0:0:

    Service name: Abertis PID 2025

    IP address: 127.0.0.1

    Transcoding: No


    I then also checked the "Stream Relay Settings":


    Stream Relay URL 127.0.0.1 ( I don't know if this is right ??? )

    Stream Relay Port 17999

    Stream Relay switch delay 0


    I don't have any idea why it is not working. Can anyone point me in the right direction ? Thank you.

    Or give me a tip?
