    Thank you for your honest answers, they helped me make a difficult decision. After well over a decade of support to the french (and a few others) Dream user base, I'm giving up, I'm ending our support and images for Dream receivers.

    ps : and to set the record straight, we have not been involved with any commercial operation with any stb manufacturer, boy, we do not even have advertisement on our site.

    EPG is just one exemple, the same goes for hdmi-cec and quite a few other things. We already suffer from lack of exposure of the drivers (but I understand this one does not come from Dream), this definitively will not help.


    It is very sad to see a brand that has been helped so much by the community closing on them brutaly like that.

    So developing python plugins is ok (when simple ones at least), but for things that require deaper intégration (EPG with drivers libs for example) are now dead basicaly.


    Also, I cannot see the 3.2 branch at all, so I'm guessing I cannot see the latest header, no ?

    I experience an issue with the dreambox webif (tested on my d8k and dm800 using latest official firmware) when trying to use the character ' in the title of a movie (example : " l'emmerdeur ")


    - if a timer with ' has been created using the remote control or out of EPG, you can see it in the webtimer list, but you cannot edit it or delete it (pushing the icon doesn't do anything)


    - if you try to create one from the webif, it will do it and it will display in the list, but once again, you cannot edit it or delete it (pushing the icon doesn't do anything)

    The issue still exist, in rel 2.8 or experimental. To reproduce it, make sure your radio mode is not set to alternativ, go radio mode, select one of your choosing, click menu and then 'add to favorites' and crassshhhhh.




    A quick (and likely very dirty) way to fix it is to add a dummy cancel to ChannelSelectionRadio like




    "--- a/lib/python/Screens/ChannelSelection.py
    +++ b/lib/python/Screens/ChannelSelection.py
    @@ -1522,6 +1522,8 @@
    config.radio.lastservice.value = ref.toString()
    config.radio.lastservice.save()
    self.saveRoot()
    + def cancel(self):
    + return


    class SimpleChannelSelection(ChannelSelectionBase):
    def __init__(self, session, title):"




    Seems to work, but I have not clues what else it breaks :grinning_squinting_face:

    Ich weiss ja nicht was ihr gemacht habt, aber ich habe gestern mal versuchsweise mit einer DM500HD einen HD-Sender über nfs aufgenommen und abgespielt. Konnte keine Ruckler oder andere Probleme feststellen.


    NFS works, cifs doesn't, or at least not at any decent/workable speed. (hence the thread title saying cifs ;))

    I have justed tested with your compilation (just in case the issue was in my cdk) 1.6 based experimental-dm8000_20100305 out of dreamboxupdate does indeed have the same issue, so it's not my compil


    Also worth knowing, I'm using wired connection, not wifi

    Hi there,




    i'm compiling opendreambox-1.6 without issues, and the produced image works almost fine, but I have a network related issue.




    When I try to read mkv or dvd iso from my network server (fat Linux server with Samba running on it, so I'm connecting with cifs), it shutters severely (but it works fine under opendreambox-1.5). The same media read out of the local hdd works fine. The cifs mount has been established using the networkbrowser.




    I'm unsure if the issue lies in cifs or network , as I can ftp to the box at the 10 mbytes/sec.




    Any help would be appreciated

    Ok, after more investigations, those errors are there, but do not prevent mhw-epg to be fonctionnal, my mistake was that several of those channel are boradcasted multiple time, and EPG does not work for all of them, hence some empty channel.



    So not necessarely a bug :smiling_face:

    I have compiled tuxbox cvs with private epg and mhw-epg options. When I'm tunning to Guide TV (Astra 19°), I only get a partial reading of mhw epg (some chanel have full epg, some, like TF1, France2 don't get it). The debugs sent by enigma when tuned to Guide TV are the followings :



    [EPGC] start caching events(1243087929)
    Section timeout PID 0510
    section read(Value too large for defined data type)
    section read error 75 for pid 00d3, tid 90, tidmask ff, tidext ffffffff... restart timeout



    I've been fiddling a little with esection.cpp, but had no luck in finding what the issue really is !
