Engima 2 - Samsung SMART TV Streaming app

[pembo]

Hi pembo, I have tested on a F6500 tv and the audio channels and volume screen display stays on the screen. I don't know why you need your mute and volume up and down on the screen as it does not work as the TV mute,volume up and down screen display works fine

It's due to compatibility with different models of the TV unfortunately! Especially the 'H-Series' models.
I suspect the issue you mentioned has been fixed with v3.7 hopefully!

E2Stream v3.8 has been released and is available to download from here:

http://www.pembo.co.uk/2014/12/21/e2stream-v3-8/

This release resovles an issue preventing v3.7 working on from a fresh installation on the TV.

Change log

v3.8 - 21/12/2014
 * Fixed settings save on application install/setup

To resolve the issue I had to restart the TV after install. I don't know on the next build you can make it rest the TV after install

Did you delete before installing or just update?
Delete is the safest way. I update quite a lot and haven't had issues however I know some people have reported issues.
I have a sneaking suspicion that theres a cache somewhere in the TV that's transparent to the apps, but it seems to get in the way sometimes!

For those who haven't updated to v3.8 - the feedback on this version has been extremely positive from a number of people now as there are many performance increases in this version making it noticeably quicker than previous builds!

I delete before installing. I have add the same issue on F and H Tvs

I've tried for about 2 hours this morning to get this to work but all I keep getting is buffering I've deleted and reinstalled checked all webif details but still nowt. It's a Sammy UE40D6100 any pointers to try?

 

[pembo]

Hi Fezzer, it doesn't work right now on a D-Series TV.
I'm working on an implementation for the D-Series that uses an older media player implementation that should work but loses a bit of functionality.

Keep checking back here as I'll post once its done

Hi Pembo, great piece of work this.

I just cant get the recordings to work though so have just been using it for streaming. On every version I have had it just sits on 'processing 63 recordings' when trying to access them. Each time I updated previously I didn't' delete first but this time I did and it still hangs at the same place. Is there anything else I can check/try? Thanks

v3.8 working fine on my H series and all good with recordings too. Thanks again Pembo

press 'tools' button on the remote before you press to switch to recordings.
Take a photo of the debug and email it to me... I'll pm you my address.

Thanks Pembo. Just sent this to you.

Matty102 - I think this is because you don't have any recordings in /media/hdd/movie and right now it's assuming that you would have!
Until I fix this, as a workaround try to just record something and leave it in that location and hopefully it will work.

I've created a bug entry so I can track this!

 

[matty102]

Thanks Pembo, Yeah I have all my recordings in folders so nothing sits in /media/hdd/movie usually but I just moved an existing recording into there and all works fine now. I can also access the recordings in other different folders now as well. Thanks a lot.

Just got this running on my daughters UE32H4510.

As it's a 2014 model the instructions for getting into developer mode etc were different, but I got there in the end.

First impressions, FANTASTIC WORK, the layout is easy to use, the stream/picture quality is great too!

Great work pembo!!!

E2Stream v4.0 is now available to download here:

http://www.pembo.co.uk/2014/12/27/e2stream-v4-0/

Change log

v4.0 - 27/12/2014
 * Added paging of channel list using channel up/down in
   the list view screen. (Channel up/down still continues 
   to change channel in full screen play-back mode)
 * Corrected video count positioning in list when more than
   100 channels are in a bouquet and you are playing a double
   or triple digit channel number in the list
 * Fixed more service name picon issues with non
   alphanumeric characters
 * Fixed previous/next indicators in channel list to 
   highlight when there are further pages of channels.
 * Reformatted recordings list text to resolve positioning
   and wrap issues.
 * Fixed pause on recordings play-back
 * Now shows info-bar on pause, rewind, fast forward/skip
   when playing back a recording.
 * Quick fix to prevent 0 items in recording list giving a
   problem - this needs a better fix to ignore empty 
   bouquets that will come in a future release.
 * Resolved zap during full screen play back issue

 v3.9 - 24/12/2014
 * Rewrite of the sliding window channel view to  allow for
   easier future modifications

Hi pembo great work , any updates for the d series tv ?I get everything but it just buffers.

 

[pembo]

Not yet.. Working on it, but it might have to be a separate build, specifically for the d-series.

Hello Pembo

First of all thank you very much for your wonderful work, it is very much appreciated.

I just bought my first ever Samsung smart TV today, a 32'' H series for the bedroom.
I have installed E2Stream v4.0 and it works like a dream with channels and recordings on both DVB-S2 and DVB-T2 tuners but only with FTA channels and recordings from FTA channels.
On all other channels and recordings it says "buffering...please wait" forever or "buffering...please wait" and then "error message: Stream communication problem"

Is that normal? is it not possible to stream encrypted channels and recordings or is it something in my set up? Something i am doing wrong?

I am running Apollo 109 on a GI Xpeed LX3 receiver and everything is connected with wires on a rock solid Gigabit LAN.
I had exactly the same results when i connected the TV to my secondary E2 receiver a cloud ibox3 running latest openpli4

Thank you all in advance, any help/advice/experience on the matter is very welcomed.

Apologies - only just seen this.

Sounds like a configuration you might have set on the boxes. Many other people have had success with encrypted channels, so I suspect its a setting under system/customise/descramble http streams.

When enabled, http streams are descrambled on the server side. The (remote) client receiver does not have to do descrambling.

Check and set this to yes if it's not already...
