TSMedia Update Install Problems

[whatsat]

Hi,

I'm trying update my tsmedia from version 4.6 to the latest 6.5 but it just doesnt want to install.

I downloaded the enigma2-plugin-extensions-tsmedia-oe2.0_6.5_all.ipk to the tmp folder.
logged into the box through telnet
typed - opkg install -force-overwrite /tmp/*.ipk
wouldnt install

also tried to install through vix - install extensions
wouldnt install either.
attached is the screen shot from this.

oh, and running opkg update doesnt work either.

I have a vu solo2 running vix 3.0.808.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Well the opkg update command wont work because there are no longer any image feeds for ViX 3.0.

How can I update to TSmedia 6.5 then?

Update the image to a currently supported image first.

Update the image to a currently supported image first.

Thanks. The latest image appears to be Helios 0.17, is this correct?

If I download this and stick it on a usb and then install it will I lose all my settings and have to install everything else from scratch again?

What happened to Zeus by the way?

Yes & yes.
Been covered many times on the forums though.
You can back up your channel lists using an app like DreamBox Edit.
Backup your cams & configs using ftp. These can easily be restored then after the image update.

is zeus no more? has it been replaced by helios?

 

[judge]

Yes & about to be replaced by Apollo.

 

[whatsat]

So is there no point updating to helios now then? as I will have to start from scratch again if I install helios now and then apollo shortly after?

 

[judge]

There is a point. You want to use plugin feeds & tsmedia as stated in your OP.
Zeus & Helios backups can easily be restored in new images, so should only take a matter of minutes to be up and running again when a newer image is released.

okay, so you are saying if I do the hard graft of updating to helios now i can then save a backup of all my settings then
when I come to install apollo from scratch all i have to do is install apollo image then restore all settings from my helios backup?

The usual. System updates, bug fixes, some updated plugins, new skin from the creators of BlueHD, new AMB options...

I can update my TSmedia. Just updated from 6.2 to 6.7 (using vix 3.0 808 )
On upgrade all works but no audio?
Is this a vix 3 issue?
I know i can upgrade to helios but at moment happy with 3.0

Not meaning to sound anal but it really does grind on me when people post there image is 808. What is this ?. there is no such thing as ViX 808, 808 is simply the build number not the image version.

 

[cactikid]

sorry should have added v 3.0 and 808,i presume thats what you meant?

Yes & presume you would also know 3.x builds are no longer supported/maintained?

 

[cactikid]

and that would include tsmedia update i meant,found a link for new ipk remove old and ftp new one and hopefully better,i did read a while ago some buggers got a new big shiny axe and did some chopping
