I have a communitary instalation dish (no need to power the lnb from the azbox) How do I setup this?
I heard that if I feed the communitary lnb I could burn my tuner...
PD: I had to activate dhcp in my router to get ip, didn't read that in the .txt
@voki081
Your DHCP software working correctly with other PC/notebook ?
Maybe as an alternative solution try to press OK or Menu button during the Resque mode, it also helps sometimes
ps. i need litel help i know im wrong but can u help me wich is tuner for azbox bc mine is broken and i have to bay one but i just see in web DVB-T and DVB-C so wich is for my azpremium
i know im wrong but i need help
RESCUE mode? SOLVED!
All problem was in my dhcp service configuration.
Thanks all on help.
And I want to warn all which has same problem and have played with network setings to check their configurations.
especially thanks @blackie and @atoth73
Cheers:respect-049:
I have 4 lnb's.
I have the configuration: A)Hotbird , B)Astra19.2 , C)Astra28.2 , D)HellasSat39.
I make an automatic full scan but it can receive nothing from Astra19.2 ,no problem with the others satellites.
With firmware 1.0.27 it could find the 19.2 channels but it wouldn't show anything (black screen)
With 1.0.28 no channels after scanning at 19.2 at all.
On MKV subtitles work, internal one, which comes with movie :)
Is there a way, how to mount smb? I tried
>mkdir /hdd/movie
>mount -t smbfs -o username:xxx,password:xxx //192.168.1.1/movies /hdd/movie
But got error, that the path was not found. Any advice?
-- mount with -t cifs doesn't work\
Thanks
MickeySA thank you!
sattommy when i press AUX no .srt subtitle appear :(
in dm800 yes.
in enigma2 azbox hd if we press AUX a menu appears but no .srt to chose from.
I have always found one of the biggest drawbacks in the original FW to be the fact that it limits the machine almost to single-tasking.
Even my old Samsung HD recorder was able to record a programme while at the same time I watch another prevoiusly recorded. AZBOX with the original FW asks me to decide "watch or record?".
How about the situation in E2?
Mike
installed it finally. Looks pretty good.
The only problem (even for this stage) has been already menitioned... no audio. In my case almost 80% of channels...
But very good work!!!!
BTW: How can I set HDMI as video output...?
albaki77 he doesn't want to know if we can watch tv and record at same time :)
he wants to watch a movie or previous recordings, while he records something.
I know with my old Dreambox 600, I can record and watch a recorded program at the same time ,with no dropouts. It would be great if we can do the same with the AZBox
Exactly what you say hfmls. This is not a question of using two tuners at the same time (I know this doesn't work with Premium).
The question I posted was if it is possible to record a programme, at the same using the mediaplayer for playing back something else. This shouldn't be a hardware limitation problem, but a problem of "which task uses how many system resources".
What drove me to this question were the numbers you posted as to the data throughput. It seems there is a lot of power hidden in the machine.
Unfortunately I cannot experiment with my own machine to find out, as this is the only receiver we have in the family, and accidentallly zeroing the box would lead to a lot of hassle :woohoo-022:
Mike
if we can play a 40 mb/s 1080p DTS 1.5mb/s at 41% cpu use ...i don't see why not :)
I was also looking into it too. I think cifs is the way to go.
I tried copying the cifs.ko from my vu+ to /lib/modules on the azbox and running
But I get keep this errorCode:insmod /lib/modules/cifs.ko
I need to be able to connect my Elite to my windows PC so I can watch movies.Code:insmod: can't insert '/lib/modules/cifs.ko': invalid module format
Can anybody shine any light on the problem?
After few hours my dmesg was fullyfied by this error and I can't tune anything
There are some other rare error about firmware timeoutQuote:
i2c-adapter i2c-0: Unable to perform I2C read - RM_TIMEOUT
cx24116_readreg: reg=0x1f (error=-22)
Any news ?
Is the bug acknowledged ?
Sorry for my weird english, but I'm falling asleep after my workhours.

Guys use NFS. I'm using it without any problem.
mkdir /mnt/nfs
mount -t nfs xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/xxxx /mnt/nfs -o rw,nolock,intr,soft,udp
What I would like to see fixed now is Aspect Ratio, as I use my Azbox with a 4:3 TV and so all 16:9 channels or movies in Media Player are stretched.
If there is a way to do this manually, as the A/V settings don't work on the GUI, please let me know.
I finally got him to test, the scan works prefect with Diseq with 4 LNBs.
The picture is also good, only the sound works for some stations, but that was already known. I miss putting the azbox on standbay.
for the rest prefect. With big thanks to the ripper and the team :respect-062:
:cheers2:
Guys, this can be done in original firmware. If you want to watch a recorded program while you are recording something else then hit the <menu> button to the left of the <OK> and choose recorded programs then select what you want to watch.
Edit : you have to wait until your program has started to record before this method works
PS Have been following this development for some time and want the thank the_ripper mickeysa sattommy and team for the great job they are doing. I'm in the same boat as Mike here as I can't experiment yet or I risk divorce !
Which is the PIN to deactivate PARENTAL CONTROL?
Thank you in advance :)
Does the HDMI work yet and how
Hi to all,
I am reading this thread since the beginning without loosing any post...
I did not see if anyone noted that the clock is running faster.
My box is a Premium with dvb-t tuner, image is .28.
Congratulation to the_ripper and the team for the great job they are doing.
Regards.
Ok Guys,
Just did a few tests with regards to subtitles. They should be working with the currently released version:
-MKV internal subs -> pres aux button to select then
-Srt subs -> name the srt file excatly the same as video file (capitals matter!) and start the movie. Just press aux, and ok, to enable the subs. (tested working with avi, mkv, and vob).
Regards,
Sattomy
Does E2 provide support 2TB HDDs or this is something related with hardware/low level boot codes?
Currently I'm using 1TB HDD but need a larger one since I want to move my large avi archive directly into the box. I'm really impressed with the mkv performance/ cpu usage with E2 hfmls published...
.srt subtitles are working ok with a .mkv file!!!
go forward - backward are not and the box hangs. I have a Premium.
I think that this version .28 is ok to use and most important is the audio issue with DVB-S.
Please do something coz my wife and kids will kill me :)
Also NFS mounting works absolutely perfect and this image is a proof that the box is awesome in hardware terms. Perfect for mediaplayer and Sat .
@sattommy
Just the info...
I've tested 10 mkv movies with average bitrate( not as high as hfmls). There are two files that have no problem. There are five files that run just first 1-3 minutes then freeze or sometimes hang. The rest three are not playable. I'm using usb docking, when I connect the docking, E2 always say something like this "no files can playable on this media" It seems that media player also don't regconize .mts files(avchd) as original firmware do. It's very surprised to see the CPU run just at 1x% when playing HD movie.
I will be really happy(dream comes true) if idx/sub will support for the media player since almost mkv movies in my country use idx/sub(rip from dvd). Thank you so much for your job !!!
PS: my box is old board version azbox premium(tuner fixed). using 1080i50 resolution.
Hello
I have seen some movies hang within the first minutes. somehow gstreamer demuxer gives error then. I have not had a single one not playing at all. Can you provide samples?
Which codecs are used within the MKVs? h264 for now is the only one working with mkv. I need samples of others
BTW,
I found an alternative solution for .sub files:

Of course a direct support will be perfect.
