There is nothing in the original or modified version that would prevent the image from working, the modified version was needed so that users could stream channels generated by The ABM plugin with remote stream convert, or would you rather we didnt discover and fix that particular bug ??.

 

[mickyblueys]

We'd prefer you had 2 versions, for those of us that don't use ABM, and use another autobouquet.

Naah, that's not what you want: that's a work-around. What you want is one plugin that does it all.
We'll have a look......

... And not test it to see if it is still compatible with a non-ABM system..... Come on! I have worked in IT long enough to know that small changes can cause issues, even when it is "obvious" that it will work
Fixing bugs is agood idea, potentially introducing new ones is not..... And I am saying potentially because no one seems to know (other than my system now works) and I am not inclined to reinstall the Vix feed to prove it.

i did test, and test, and test, the original only looks for certain filename ie 'userbouquet.xxxxx' ths is a limitation i removed, it will convert ANY bouquet filename for remote streaming, 'our' plugin should work on ALL bouquets. if not please email me your bouquets and i will gladly take a look.

So, I agree with people that there should only be one version, so I will hopefully have time in the week, so will re-install the feeds plugin during the week. If it works fine. I will confirm (although what caused my original problem is then anybody's guess), if it doesn't will email the bouquets to Andy.... and see where we go from there
It saves confusion with me uploading links etc
Andy, I have never doubted your professionalism, but it is so easy to just miss something when you are under pressure

yes, for sure, and everyone setup is different. impossible to code for all setups, without debugging.

This is exactly why we need debug logs from people who discover problems, instead of them jumping to other images or re-flashing and telling us after the fact.

A good habit to get into would be to set your logs and debug logs to be saved to a USB stick so that if you have to flash the box you dont loose the logs and can still forward them to us. I cant stress enough just how valuable these logs are to us for bug finding etc.

I now a USB stick on the 2nd box, so before I rerun with installing from the feeds, apart from Logs Setting pointing to the USB and enabling debug log, anything else I should do??

off the top of my head that should suffice for now, if you do encounter problems in the future please dont forget those logs, they are as i said invaluable to us.

OK, I have carried out the following on my 2nd box (ET5000)...
Logs on.
Checked plugin still works - OK
Removed "alien" version plugin - restarted enigma
Installed "VIX feed" plugin - restarted enigma
"VIX feed" picks up the original settings - no changes.
Ran plugin - Get message "Download from remote failed" - no display of remote Bouquets.
Removed "VIX feed" plugin - restarted enigma.
Manually re-installed "alien" ipk version from tmp.
Restarted enigma.
Picks up same settings and when run, shows remote Bouquets for download ...... everything OK.

Apart from source, the only other difference is that one is applied via the feeds and one via the "manual" install ipk from tmp

So there appears to be a problem between the VIX feed and my Bouquets which are Mr Mister plus German 19.2E (Henksat) plus Lraizer plugin.
Will PM Andy about sending Bouquets

I've experienced a similar issue described by twol:
here's what I did:
Installed remotestreamconverter from VIX feed on Build 589.
Rebooted box, and was able to fetch the remote bouquets I needed from My second DUO (on build 589 too) in the lan .
For testing I grabbed a DVB-T and a DVB-S bouquet.
The stream for both kind of service was ok.

I then rearranged DVB-T service and so needed to refresh the remote_bouquet.
I did delete the one creatd by the plugin and then tried to get them again.
The plugin returned the message "Download from remote failed" and so nothing was added.
Anyway the stream from existing DVB-S services is still working.
I Tried uninstalling and then reinstalling.
The issue was there.
I tried the latest VIX update to build 600. And the issue is still there. Obviously I tried rebooting both boxes.

I've looked at debug logs but I've not found anything for my little vix knowledge. The only clues:
Debulog Enigma2-02-02-2013_10-36-59.log clearly shows that DVB-T stream has worked for Canale 5 HD and ABC and other channels.
Debulog Enigma2-03-02-2013_21-43-39.log shows another working stream.
I'll post all the debuglogs generated till now.

Duo server build 589
ip. 192.168.1.50
webif 8050

Duo client build 589 than updated to 600
ip. 192.168.1.48
webif 8048

Andy sent me a change today that worked for my bouquets, but obviously I cannt say if this will resolve everything....... Perhaps Andy when he gets a minute can comment.

 

[MarsArtis]

Oh yes Andy,
Please lemme check this tweak on my Duos too, please

 

[Richy-G]

I'm streaming from my solo 2 to my duo upstairs via home plugs. The boxes are both running latest stable updates, I get few glitches at start of each channel change then it irons itself out and works fine. Is this to be expected ?

 

[Rob van der Does]

Those glitches (only at the start of the stream) suggest that buffering is too low. I experience the same with the DUO; using the ET9200 or the Odin M9 the glitching remains for a long time.
I'm not sure if this is driver related, but I think so.

 

[MarsArtis]

This spmetimes happens playing movies from a network share too

With my ET5000 (2nd box), I immediately get a glitch followed by another about 4 seconds later and then it is usually OK.
When I am watching HD (like Sport) on my main box (ET9200), I experience hangs/glitches on the 2nd box which can last a while - I guess that is down to running both tuners on the ET9200 at the same time. When the ET9200 is in standby, the streaming is normally excellent.

 

[MarsArtis]

I do confirm that Andy fix works on. Duo too with Vix3.0b600
