[MB Premium Ultra] Dreamplex doesnt connect to Plex anymore..

[imish]

On both my boxes since upgrading to 4.1 dreamplex has stopped working.

I can see all my previous settings on dreamplex - the plex server details, my user credentials, etc....however I am not getting the directory structure from the plex server and hence cant view any of my media - leading me to believe that the connection may not be successful

reading the note on 4.1 here - http://www.world-of-satellite.com/s...penViX-4-1-Release-thread&highlight=dreamplex

"Known Image issues
Dreamplex - Some users in certain setup's may have issues.
Console window does not display the realtime installation status onscreen."

I would appreciate if someone can elaborate on what the known issue is and whether I am experiencing this on both my boxes.

Working here mate on gigablue quad plus .

Ok - I haven't changed anything in my setup other than the VIX image - don't understand why it is not working on box boxes

Uninstall and reinstall to see if that helps buddy

tried that.
recreated a token too.

no luck.

Did you reboot after uninstall

 

[imish]

Did you reboot after uninstall

yes - before and after the install (despite the OS being linux based).

Normally used standard discover for my own local Plex Server, but to test I just deleted the server and rebooted. Then re-added server using 'myplex' as a friend has a plex server. Any all logs in perfect, has access to my server and a friends server via myplex.

I'd advise to fresh flash with no restore whatsoever.

is there a way to troubleshoot this rather than starting with a clean slate (we have 3 boxes in total - all with the same issue on 4.1) - as i have multiple receivers that is not really practical and without understanding what the issue is there are chances that this can happen again in the future.

Imo, make an image backup of one your boxes. Then start with a clean slate and test on a fresh image. Might even be an issue with your plex account and not image.

unlikely and here is why.

Can access plex from all my other devices, mobile, tablet, PC, PHT.
On my MB micro i was running 3.37 and it was working fine this morning - as soon as I upgraded to 4.1 (as per my other thread) dreamplex stopped working.

Try fresh flash then.

Ok - can give that a try on one box - however would like to have this troubleshooted to get to the root cause.

 

[Sicilian]

You could try this.

FTP to /etc/enigma2

Grab the settings file.

Delete all entried to dreamplex and re-upload the file.

 

[imish]

Good suggestion - will give this a try and report back.

Hi imish,

I am under dilemma to upgrade my STB with the new shining 4.1 , but I am quite heavy user of Plex and I lose my hair from my skinny head ;P
I am against of flashing from scratch my box, coz it's always pain of back.
Could you report how does it work currently with Dreamplex plz? Shall I stay away from the 4.1, or switch to something else more upgrade friendly 8D ?

 

[Sicilian]

I've got 3 receivers all running Dreamplex with no issues on 4.1.004.

haven't got round to giving Sicilian's suggestion a try - for now it seems like the upgrade to 4 and subsequently to 4.1 has screwed dreamplex (on 3 receivers).

There's nothing wrong with Dreamplex in 4.1.xxx, I've setup nurmerous receivers with Dreamplex and no issues.

Sorry to jump on this thread! Does it do bitstreaming passthrough?

I use an Nvidia Shield TV for Plex, but may give it a go on the Solo 4K if it bitstreams.
