    Icon14 PRIORITY MANAGER V1.7 BY BUYUKBANG : Complete Tool to Power Up Azbox

    PRIORITY MANAGER V1.7 BY BUYUKBANG





    CLICK FOR MORE SCREENSHOTS


    IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THESE RELEASE:
    ------------------------------------------------
    TO USE KILL_TV_EMU OPTION OR "MOVIE & BROWSER" BUTTON, YOU NEED TO REBOOT YOUR BOX AFTER (RE)ACTIVATONS OR RESTARTS OF PRIORITY MANAGER FROM ITS USER INTERFACE. THIS IS A SPECIAL REQUIREMENT FOR ONLY THESE FEATURES.



    DESCRIPTION:
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This plugin is written by BUYUKBANG to improve total performance of Azbox HD and add some
    missing features! However its name remains as "Priority Manager", it now makes more than
    its name offers. Here are the features of Priority Manager:

    * Priority Manager automatically changes the priorities of the processes, kill and restart
    some of the processes to give optimal performance for the menu being used. I tested all
    processes one by one, decided their effects on the performance of all modules and prepared
    a bug-free (hopefully) and complex logic to cover all possible usage cases.

    * Priority Manager provides power saving! Smudger's power measurements show that
    Priority Manager decrease power consumption of the box from 25W to 23W while watching an
    SD channel and from 28W to 24W while watching an HD channel.

    * Priority Manager provides password protected hidden channel list feature. This will
    cover a missing functionality in Azbox and so that you will be able to prepare a separate
    hidden channel list which you want hide from people not knowing your password. Default
    channel list will be automatically replaced after reboot. So any reboots / electricity
    problems will not reveal your hidden channel list.

    * Priority Manager can move plugins to internal HDD or USB storages.

    * Priority Manager upgrades Busybox from v1.0 to v1.16.

    * Priority Manager enables Cron usage.

    * Priority Manager optionally automatically mounts CIF and NFS shares when remote server
    is online and automatically unmounts CIF AND NFS shares when remote server is offline, so
    protects file manager from freezes when remote goes offline after the shares mounted.

    * Priority Manager optionally creates swap file on your HDD/Flash disk which will help
    RAM by caching some part of the memory. Priority Manager not only supports creating swap
    file on internal HDD or usb HDD/Flash disk connected before Azbox boots, it also supports
    creating swap file on usb HDD/Flash disk connected after Azbox boots by continuously
    checking for new USB devices.

    * You can backup or restore /DISK2 and /PLUGINS folders with just a simple button from
    user interface.

    * Priority Manager optionally takes backup of /DISK2 and /PLUGINS folders in user defined
    periods in background.

    * Priority Manager can execute user selected programs after going into SLEEP mode and
    the kill them after return from SLEEP mode. By using this feature running resource
    intensive programs like transmission, aMule, azepgmgr in only SLEEP mode will be
    automatically managed without user intervention.

    * Priority Manager increases internal storage (DOM) speed speed up to 20% by changing
    its working parameters.

    * Priority Manager provides "Deep Sleep Mode" which automatically kills all unnecessary
    applications and improve downloading speed when box goes to sleep mode.

    * You can reset all system passwords with just a simple button from user interface.

    * Up on deactivating or uninstalling Priority Manager, if related features activated in
    /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt, Busybox downgrades to the orginal version,swap file
    and cron is deactivated all mounted shares are unmounted and plugins are moved back to
    original place. A complete rollback without reboot requirement is performed.


    SPECIAL THANKS TO:
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Smudger for the all information, tests and power measurements, his tests killed the bugs!

    Kanber Kav for his permission for the usage and modification of his Multicas Info plugin
    and for the idea of increasing internal storage (DOM) speed!

    Zeini for the detailed channel switching time tests!


    Bug Reports
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you have any problems with Priority Manager, activate VERBOSE LOG from user interface
    and restart Priority Manager from PLUGINS-->PriorityManager-->Activate/Reactivate.
    This will create a verbose log file /Download/PriorityManager_Verbose_Log . Collect data
    with this option set to 1, without stopping, restarting, reactivating and deactivating
    Priority Manager, because all this operations will delete all old log files. Then send an
    e-mail to buyukbang @ gmail.com containing PriorityManager_Verbose_Log with the approximate
    time that problem occured.


    HISTORY:
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    v1.7
    -----

    NEW: Added KILL_TV_EMU and WAIT_SECONDS_BEFORE_KILL options to PriorityManagerSettings.txt.
    When KILL_TV_EMU is activated, all TV and EMU applications are automatically killed after
    switching to movie, rss or browser menus. with this feature, your box will have more free
    system resources (both processing power -CPU- and RAM) for playing higher bitrate movies
    or browsing the internet.

    NEW: Added "Movie & Browser" button to user interface. If you don't want to use "Auto
    Kill TV-EMU" feature activated by KILL_TV_EMU option, you can use "Movie & Browser"
    button to kill TV and EMU applications before watching a very high bit rate movie file.
    TV and EMU applications will be automatically restarted after swithcing back to TV menu.

    NEW: "Hidden Channel List" button now doesn't need to reboot the box.

    NEW: "Default Channel List" added. So you don't need to reboot the box to activate default
    channel list.

    NEW: Azbox settings file (selene.conf) is included in both "Default Channel List" and
    "Hidden Channel List" packs. So you can define and use different settings (ie. volume,
    parental lock setting, last switched channel, etc..) for each channel lists.

    NEW: OSCAM EMU prioritization. (Thanks to Alex-1 for the information!)

    NEW: OpenVPN prioritization. (Thanks to banditus for the information!)

    NEW: Decreased CPU usage of PriorityManager.sh (Its priority is decreased and default
    MINOR_SLEEP_TIME value is set to 3.)

    FIX: HDD not sleeps when reserved programs are waiting to be recorded. Previous fix made
    in v1.4 was not enogh. But this time the problem is completely fixed (Thanks to Alex-1
    for the bug report and fix tests!)


    v1.6
    -----

    NEW: Fine tune for the channel switching times. (Thanks to Zeini for the tests)

    NEW: Reset all system passwords from user interface.

    NEW: Automatically change PriorityManagerSettings.txt format to unix againist accidentally
    being saved in DOS format by user.

    NEW: Priority Management feature can be turn on and off from user interface or direcly
    from PriorityManagerSettings.txt .

    NEW: DYNAMIC_SLEEP, MAJOR_SLEEP_TIME, MINOR_SLEEP_TIME parameters are added. You can
    change this parameters in PriorityManagerSettings.txt if you are not satisfied with (or
    have problems with) Priority Management feature. This gives you more control over Priority
    Management.

    NEW: DOM Speed Increading feature can be turn on and off from user interface or direcly
    from PriorityManagerSettings.txt .

    NEW: Added support for mounting CIF and NFS shares of same file server at the same time .

    FIX: Clicking a button in user interface sometimes shows empty output.

    FIX: Wrong do***entation saying that enabling CRON feature requires enabling BusyBox
    feature. In fact, /PLUGINS/PriorityManager/busybox is directly called by Priority Manager,
    so if you want you can disable BusyBox feature while using CRON feature.


    v1.5
    -----

    NEW: User interface is completely reworked. Toggling all settings from user interface
    without any need for using TELNET / FTP is now possible. Added a button to user interface
    to review current settings.

    NEW: Password protected hidden channel list feature is added.

    NEW: Backup /DISK2 and /PLUGINS folder from user interface is added.

    NEW: Restore last backup of /DISK2 and /PLUGINS folders from user interface is added.

    FIX : Fixed some bugs in "Move Plugins" feature.


    v1.4
    -----

    This was an internal release and only a few testers got this version.

    NEW : Faster menu detection algorithm which dynamically manages sleep time between loops.

    NEW : Busybox can be upgraded automatically in boot from v1.0 to v1.16 with a simple
    option in PriorityManagerSettings.txt (Thanks to Kanber Kav for compiling Busybox!)

    NEW : Full automated Cron setup. Cron provides a very flexible UNIX scheduling mechanism.

    NEW : Moving plugins to internal HDD or USB storages.

    NEW : Scheduled backup of /DISK2 and /PLUGINS folders in user defined periods.

    NEW : Improved user interface on Plugins Menu. (Thanks to Kanber Kav for the new version of
    his Multimenu plugin!)

    NEW : Improvement on automatic management of execution and killing programs: Priority
    Manager can start user selected programs when Azbox sleeps. When Azbox wakes up there are
    3 things that priority manager can do as an opposite action: kill it, start another
    script to stop it or simply do nothing which can be useful if it's a auto-terminated
    program or script.

    NEW: Better and faster recording detection algorithm.

    NEW: Mount checks simplified and tuned for better performance. Now you can mount CIF/NFS
    shares directly to HDD folders without using symlinks to DOM folders.

    NEW: Improved swap file support. Creation of swap file is now retried when "SWAP FILE
    ACTIVATION FAILED" error occurs.

    NEW : Up on deactivating or uninstalling Priority Manager, if related features activated
    in /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt, Busybox downgrades to the orginal version, swap
    file and cron is deactivated, all mounted shares are unmounted and plugins are moved back
    to original place. So a complete rollback without reboot requirement is performed.

    NEW : Limiting file size of PriorityManager_Verbose_Log with the given byte value.

    FIX : HDD not sleeps when reserved programs are waiting to be recorded.


    v1.3
    -----

    NEW : Packed the script as a plugin. You can look at the script logs, activate,
    deactivate, restart the script simply from Plugins Menu without having to use TELNET.
    Special thanks to Kanber Kav for his permission for the usage and modification of his
    Multimenu plugin!

    NEW : Increasing internal storage (DOM) speed up to 20% by changing its working
    parameters! (Thanks to Kanber Kav for the idea!)

    NEW : Full automated cleanup mechanism: After deleting this plugin from Plugins Menu,
    Priority Manager will be deactivated and process will be stopped, all installed files and
    log file will be deleted, all process priorities will be set to their default values. No
    reboot or user intervention needed!

    NEW : Reserved programs are now supported. When a scheduled recording starts, TV
    prioritization will be applied until it ends.

    NEW : CIF mount support for those who want want to mount CIF shares of your network to
    Azbox. (auto-mounts shares when the file server is online, auto-unmounts share when the
    file server is offline)

    NEW : NFS mount support for those who want want to mount NFS shares of your network to
    Azbox. (auto-mounts shares when the file server is online, auto-unmounts share when the
    file server is offline)

    NEW : Swap file support for Azbox. You can activate this option so that to Priority
    Manager creates swap file on your HDD or Flash disk which will help RAM by caching some
    part of the memory. Swap usage file helps large file operations like recording.

    NEW : "Deep Sleep" option. You can activate this option if you want to kill all
    unnecessary applications when box goes to sleep mode to improve downloading speed. There
    are some side effects of deep sleep. For more information please read DEEP_SLEEP section
    of /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt .

    NEW : Automatic management of execution and killing of sleep mode programs. Priority
    Manager can execute user selected programs after going into SLEEP mode and the kill them
    after return from SLEEP mode with the new feature. For more information please read
    PROGRAM section of /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt .

    NEW : CCcam EMU prioritization. (Thanks to Smudger for the information!)

    NEW : NewCS EMU prioritization. (Thanks to Smudger for the information!)

    NEW : Transmission (torrent client) sleep mode prioritization.

    NEW : aMule (eD2K client) sleep mode prioritization.

    NEW : Verbose log generation for debugging added. Please read "IMPORTANT NOTES - 4" for
    more information.

    NEW : Better TV recording and channel switch speed.

    NEW : Better performance for some process priorities.

    NEW : All settings are moved from script file to a separate file :
    /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt

    FIX : "CANCEL" option in sleep menu is now detected as it should be.


    v1.2
    -----

    NEW : azepgmgr support to protect TV/Media applications from the glitches caused by its
    initial process. (Thanks to Smudger for all tests and information!)

    NEW : Client/Server mode switch parameter for those who want to this script on a box
    being used as a CAM server.

    NEW : Audio menu prioritization.

    NEW : Settings menu prioritization.

    NEW : Plugins menu prioritization.

    NEW : Cheops EMU prioritization.

    NEW : SBox EMU prioritization.

    NEW : All process priorities fine tuned.

    NEW : Better menu detection.

    NEW : Better sleep mode detection.

    NEW : Loop sleep time decreased from 60 seconds to 30 seconds.

    FIX : Sometimes CRTVCore collects all CPU power and this slows down everything. So I
    decreased priority of CRTVCore.

    FIX : Fixed a bug in restart: /DISK2/etc/start.d/S1PriorityManager.sh restart


    v1.1
    -----

    NEW : RSS and Browser components stay in memory after first usage. Added support for
    automatically killing RSS and Browser components when using other menu.


    v1.0
    -----

    NEW : All process priorities updated according to the results of my long tests. IP TV,
    Mediaplayer, Recording, ECM Time (for EMUs) performances are optimised.

    NEW : Old scripts use "snice +XX" command to give processes positive nice values (lower
    priority). But this command does not guarantee to decrease the priority and system
    sometimes ignore this command. You can check old scripts by top command while changing
    menu modes. "<" sign means negative nice value and high priority, "N" sign means positive
    nice value and low priority. After a few times changing the menu modes everything has "<"
    sign and this is really nonfunctional situation. To fix this problem I used "snice STOP"
    which cannot be ignored by the system.

    NEW : massimo1167's script is not compatible with the option "Always Start in TV Mode"
    and this causes totally wrong prioritization. This is fixed.

    NEW : Old scripts block firmware upgrades and upgrade process sticks at "Extracting".
    Priority Manager fixes this issue and fully compatible Opensat upgrades. Just wait 45
    seconds at "Extracting", then upgrade process will continue.

    NEW : ftp,samba,telnet prioritization in sleep mode. I suggest you to transfer your files
    with FTP during sleep mode prioritization. This is the fasted method.

    NEW : Photo menu prioritization.

    NEW : Browser menu prioritization.

    NEW : RSS menu prioritization.

    NEW : Use this command to stop the script (does not work in old scripts):
    /DISK2/etc/start.d/S1PriorityManager.sh stop
    NEW : Use this command to restart the script (does not work in old scripts):
    /DISK2/etc/start.d/S1PriorityManager.sh restart

    NEW : Logging. Use this command to see log file:
    tail -n100 -f /tmp/PriorityManager_IsRunning


    INSTALLATION:
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    METHOD 1 : USING PLUGINS MENU USER INTERFACE
    1. Extract PriorityManager.plugin and plugins.lst files from the archive file.

    2. Copy PriorityManager.plugin and plugins.lst to USB or simply transfer them by FTP to
    /tmp folder of your Azbox.

    3. Enter Plugins menu, press Red Button on remote controller to add plugin. If you're
    using USB select to install it from USB, or if you transferred files to /tmp folder
    install it from tmp folder.

    4. Check user defined parameters in /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt and edit
    parameters if you want, save the file.

    5. Activate plugin from the plugins menu: PLUGINS-->PriorityManager-->Activate/Reactivate

    6. After the first run of the script standby.sh and wakeup.sh scripts will be created
    under /DISK2/etc . These scripts will help to main script for the decision of the sleep
    mode by creating and deleting a file ( /tmp/PriorityManager_Sleep ) If you have already
    standby.sh and wakeup.sh in /DISK2/etc, they will be backed up by installation process
    in the same directory. Then you may want to manually add below commands to scripts
    before running Priority Manager:
    echo 0 > /tmp/PriorityManager_Sleep = to standby.sh
    rm /tmp/PriorityManager_Sleep = to wakeup.sh

    METHOD 2 : MANUAL INSTALLATION
    Those having difficulties with azbox plugin installation mechanism may choose this method.
    1. Rename PriorityManager.plugin as PriorityManager.tgz and extract files with an unzip
    tool like winrar, 7-Zip, etc.

    2. Upload PriorityManager folder to azbox under /PLUGINS folder.

    3. chmod 755 everything in PriorityManager folder and its sub folders.

    4. Run following command in TELNET: /PLUGINS/PriorityManager/sh/install.sh

    5. Check user defined parameters in /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt and edit
    parameters if you want, save the file.

    6. Activate plugin from the plugins menu: PLUGINS-->PriorityManager-->Activate/Reactivate

    7. After the first run of the script standby.sh and wakeup.sh scripts will be created
    under /DISK2/etc . These scripts will help to main script for the decision of the sleep
    mode by creating and deleting a file ( /tmp/PriorityManager_Sleep ) If you have already
    standby.sh and wakeup.sh in /DISK2/etc, they will be backed up by installation process
    in the same directory. Then you may want to manually add below commands to scripts
    before running Priority Manager:
    echo 0 > /tmp/PriorityManager_Sleep = to standby.sh
    rm /tmp/PriorityManager_Sleep

    hi, the plugin is great, and works very well, but..

    I have the EPG Plugin working and by restarting TV mode the EPG goes away. There is anyway to run the epgPlugins, ou its script when the TV mode restarts?

    Hi moicas, thanks for the report.

    Anyone can confirm this? Seems not a big deal, I can make a small development for this but before I need e few more feedback.

    BTW, since I'm not using any EPG tool on my azbox I'll need assist for information (EPG script startup, ps command log, etc. ) and fix tests, may be on MSN. Any volunteer?

    hi, i think the solution is simple, is to add a file for us to inser our scripts for tv.

    The EPG runs fine but after geting out of the movie mode and entering in the TV mode, the epg that was in memory goes away , and i have to run manualy the script to update the EPG again.

    If you could point the epg script somewere, so when we enter again in TV mode the script runs automatic and updates the EPG data Again.

    Im using Portuguese EPG, if you can test it i can send you the files.

    Sorry I cannot test EPG since I don't want to loose time with things that I don't use. But AFAIU from your description, adding a new parameter to settings file that starts scripts and apps after all TV EMU restarts is enough, there is no need to kill anything since EPG program auto killed ??? Did you check ps command output ?

    No. The program runs in background and after it ends, it doesnt run anymore. The data of EPG is loaded into the memory. Then when we go to movie mode and back to TV mode, the memory of EPG is erased because we kiled TV mode. So, we need to rerun the epg software to reload EPG to memory.

    If you add a option so we can define what program loads, like sleep or wakeup, we can add the EPG program to reload data as we go again to TV mode.

    Opensat thanked me as follows !!! :

    They didn't approved my PM 1.7 post in official azbox forum (copy and paste of the first post) I asked the reason why they do that and the answer is:

    We are sorry but your tools involve the use of emulators, and we cant publish it in our official forum.

    We appreciate your work and effort to develop these tools, but we do not believe that this is the best place to make them known.

    Can you send me a mail with your name and e-mail to contact you directly?

    Best Regards

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    They think that PM is related with emulators

    My PM v1.6 and PM 1.5 posts were published already and they deleted all today, too

    From now on, I've no hope that Opensat will behave more developer and customer friendly. No help, no thank, annoying behaviours like this. They all are completely useless

    It's because of this that the official firmware is a piece of pure ****! They are all donkey and don't understand nothing of linux, and they don't accept any help, even free help. DONKEYS!

    Really sad, for them.

    But thanks to people like buyukbang, we will not throw the box on the trash, because it's bugs. OPENSAT = pure ****!

    Remember guys, that emus are ilegal and they canot suport that oficialy, but in the other way, multicas, is their own emu that suports newcamd and Cccam.

    My message is, guys use only the site for bug related post and post tools and known forum.

    They dont what to improve the box, forget about Them ( OPENSAT )

    buyukbang i understand your disappointment.

    as far as i know ,ever since i bought the premium almost a year ago, only hobbyists like you , maz, gorski and others have made the stb better.

    and for that i thank you

    i haven't seen any real improvement by developers from opensat, azbox, Portuguese,dutch, German, Korean or aliens from mars only buggy firmwares with minor fixes.

    personally, i will wait for any enigma release and if none comes out (in the near future) i will go buy a stb that does what it promises to do.

    Buyukbang, about kill-tv option, can you add a feature so when we stop watching movies and return to tv mode, we can add a running script so i can update EPG, like the sleep option in settings.

    The reason is when we kill tv , the epg data from the plugins disapears and its needed to be reloaded when we return to TV mode, after watching a movie.

    I'll add this i v1.8 . So you'll be able to run any command after all tv reloads.

    For a workaround solution until v1.8 is released, you can add all your commands at the end of /PLUGINS/PriorityManager/reload_tv.sh script.

    buyukbang, to correctly activate "movie mode" (movie & browser), I need to follow these steps:

    1) first go to PM at Plugins;
    2) click on activate/reactivate button;
    3) click on restart button;
    4) then click on "movie & browser" button at the menu;
    5) again click on activate/reactivate button;
    6) and again click on restart button;
    7) now reboot the azbox;

    Is this correct, or I'm doing something that doesn't need to be done? The movies are working flawless, but I would like to know if I'm doing all correct. Thanks!

    I want to report a bug with PM 1.7.

    Using this plugin with CheopsCas (cheopscamd 1.0), the zapping between channels are extremely slow (changing channels and scrolling on the channel menu). I deleted PM 1.7 and the zapping speed came back to normal.

    Can this bug be fixed? Thanks!

    Nope, wrong mate You are doing some unnecessary steps.

    2 is needed only once. Never redo this again. Not needed.
    3,5,6,7 are not needed.

    Just click on "movie & browser" button and then watch your movie.

    I'm using KILL_TV_EMU=1 and recommend this option. So even clicking on "movie & browser" button is not needed with this option, it's automatically done.

    ---------------------------------------------

    /DISK2/etc/PriorityManagerSettings.txt

    KILL_TV_EMU=1 # ==> IF YOU SET THIS AS 1, ALL TV AND EMU APPLICATIONS ARE
    # AUTOMATICALLY KILLED AFTER SWITCHING TO MOVIE, RSS OR BROWSER
    # MENUS. WITH THIS FEATURE, YOUR BOX WILL HAVE MORE FREE SYSTEM
    # RESOURCES (BOTH PROCESSING POWER -CPU- AND RAM) FOR PLAYING
    # HIGHER BITRATE MOVIES OR BROWSING THE INTERNET. NOTE: IF YOU
    # SET MODE=SERVER, ONLY TV APPLICATIONS ARE KILLED.

    I never used cheops but I think we can make its performance better. Could you please test as below and say me the best result:

    1-install and active PM 1.7
    2- Open TV menu with cheops.
    3- Go to telnet and give below commands in row, and after each command test channel switch speed:

    a) snice cheops_module -10

    b) snice cheops_module -1

    c)
    snice STOP cheops_module
    snice cheops_module 2

    d)
    snice STOP cheops_module
    snice cheops_module 4

    e)
    snice STOP cheops_module
    snice cheops_module 6

    f)
    snice STOP cheops_module
    snice cheops_module 8
