Hi,
It amuses me greatly to see people ask about Azbox E2, it was never seen on E2 Azbox. Everything that was said was that rumor. In addition there are plenty of receivers that are already running E2, so why take a Azbox if your goal is to run E2?
Then I also want to stop the utopia to think that for E2 just take the source and type make to compile it, the entire driver must be rewritten to accommodate the development kit processor Sigma. The problem is that the development kit from Sigma is not free and freely downloadable! This slows the teams to begin porting E2. There is a kit that was found on the net but using older APIs that used by Azbox.
So even if E2 is focused on Azbox you also spend the same galleys to make everything work properly.
I also note that some crying foul that the source code Azbox is not available but Azbox is bound by confidentiality clauses from Sigma and more without the development kit we know nothing to do.
By cons I am disappointed that, for example among us (we must first put its own house), I have never seen anyone develop a plug-in on Azbox with the SDK and yet everything is available and explanations are on the forum ... So even with tools in hand, developers do not jostle the door for us to develop something correct ...
Minor challenge, why not try to write a correct picture viewer mode plugin (Nano-X), just to show that Azbox was possible to display a jpeg optimization without long and painful?
Only Livetux we developed a program (Windows) to transfer files and convert them to pass. And I take this opportunity to thank him again.
Pr2
