[ET10x00] Webif not showing TV picture in screen capture

[adm]

Box Xtrend ET10000
OpenVix version 6.5.001 and 6.5.002
Skin Simple Ten Eighty
Webif interface settings = as per screenshot 1

When selecting the screenshot in the web interface the TV video picture is always either blank (black screen) or is a vertical stripe pattern as shown in attached screen shots. The on screen graphics are always OK, it’s just the video that is missing or has been corrupted.

This problem exists on my box in both 6.5.001 and 6.5.002 using both Firefox and MS Edge as the laptop browser, and with selecting low or high resolution in screen capture. Reverting to version 6.4.011 and the screen capture is OK, both the TV video picture and the on screen graphics are displayed correctly.

Yes, my picture was from Vu+ Uno 4K SE with 6.5.002. Use modern interface = No or Yes, same result (only subtitles can be seen).

Is the webif picture also blank or corrupted?

just blank, a black screen.

Will cloning the display to the front panel make a difference?

.... Yes it does. If I turn that setting off it works.

so issue again lcd4linux (or whatever that package is called) or unlikely Framebuffer .. size???
Works fine on my GBue4K with/without front panel display and VuUno4Kse... but I don't use that **** package!

P.S. LCD4Linux is installed.

I've just tried again. Downloaded 6.5.002 and flashed (couch flash) with no restore of settings. I configured my network then scanned for Freesat channels and launched Webif. It still has the same problem in both the modern webif interface and the old interface.

Is this just a Xtrend ET10k problem? Bear in mind when reverting to version 6.4.011 it works OK so probably ruling out the PC.

screenshot.bmp from /tmp/ - Note: converted to .jpg on my PC as loading it here resulted in a warning about it being too large.

cannot remember if its possible on ET1000K, but are you using lcd4linux?

No. The Xtrend ET10k has a front panel 3 line dot matrix text/character display. The only adjustment that can be made are brightness and maybe the display of start/duration times of programmes or recordings.

The reference to "Power LCD Display" in settings just turns the front panel on or off

 

[twol]

With that screenshot.bmp is OK.

P.S. LCD4Linux is installed.

Any chance you can try without lcd4linux?

I also have Zgemma h9.s and can confirm this works OK with 6.5.002 using the same network, router, laptop. It's just my Xtrend Et10K that has the problem

so can you copy /usr/bin/grab from the 6.4.11 image to PC and then back to the 6.5.002 image and see what happens??
You meed to stop the 6.5 image (init 4 in telnet session) and restart (init 3) before testing.
