OpenPLi-4 / Gstreamer 1.7.1 (master git) images








Please reflash your receiver since a software update will most likely fail.



Especially on spark/spark7162.



Changes since previous release:



- Gstreamer snapshot updated to 1.7.1:



* The mp4 issue when playing from remote locations has been fixed upstream, so I've dropped the revert.



* Libsoup has been updated so I've dropped the revert for the old libsoup as well.

- DM800Se V2 and DM500HD V2 kernel config has been cleaned and more in sync with PLi's config for the other Dreambox models.



- More free space by adding a task before do_package_write_ipk which will upx compress some binaries.



* This should give us a few more MBs to work with (Dreambox *cough*).



- Major rework of the ****-fulan BSP for spark thanks to Tapaat for helping me out.



* Now using Tapaat's drivers which fixes the frambuffer (and 22khz?) issue.



* Enable of the zram module.



* Shipping his wifi drivers.



* VFD time is now synced every 5 minutes using a cron job.



* Software update and plugin-installation has been fixed.



* Using Tapaat's lirc config for spark and spark7162.

- The usual batch of dvbmediasink fixes by Christophecvr and mx3L:



* A brand new divx/xvid bitstream unpacker by mx3L should fix playback of avi files with wrong fourcc.



- Libsoup has been updated to 2.52 (from master-next).



- Refactor wifi drivers a bit on Linux 2.6.18, not auto-loading the mt7600 anymore, the correct driver should hopefully be loaded when you plugin your wifi stick.







Changes compared to openpli-oe-core gst-1:



- Ships with gstreamer upstream master git:

Using the same patches as openpli-oe-core gst-1 with only these changes:

Removed: 0001-baseparse-post-tag-list-when-avg-bitrate-changes-at-.patch

because this patch was already checked in upstream.

- Every receiver uses christophecvr's multibox dvbmediasink.



- Libsoup has been updated to 2.52 (from master-next).

- Using libtrmp and rtmpdump from oe-alliance.

- Some small enigma2 patches for Dreambox receivers (ac3/dts bypass and blanking on zap support).

These are only applied for Dreambox receivers.

- AAC to AC3 transcoding V2 by mx3L (requires a fast cpu).

- IPTV Player from samsamsam included (thx to Athoik for the recipe).

- Large list of public IPTV streams included thanks to the Japhar Team.

- Updated libcdio and cdtextinfo for audio-cd support by christophecvr.

- DM800Se, DM7020HD and DM800SeV2 driver upgraded to 20151201:

added si2166b blindscan support.

- Using aio-grab source from oe-alliance which includes fixes for spark receivers.



Known issues:



- DM800 first boot will take a while, please be patient. The next boot will be faster.

- On spark/spark7162 you need to set 'boxtype = dreambox' for oscam dvbapi.

Please use 'duckbox' instead.

- On Zgemma Star you cannot use full HD skins.

This is a hardware/driver limitation.

Please don't try it, it will crash enigma2.

- Some Dreambox remotes may behave very sensitive.

This causes button presses to register multiple times instead of just once.

As a workaround you can adjust the key interval:

Go to: Menu - System - Input devices - dreambox remote control (native).

Set "Change repeat and delay settings" to yes

Set "Interval between keys when repeating:" to 200ms or 300ms.

Press green button (OK)

Now set the same delay for: "dreambox advanced remote control (native)" as well.







TODO:



- Linux 2.6.18: Create a plugin / ppanel to select which Realtek/Ralink driver to load on startup (eg. rt3070, rt55xx, mt7600), since they cannot be loaded at the same time.



- Linux 2.6.18: Look into the v4l usb drivers.



- Add Spark specific plugins by gorski.



- Add ****-ini from OE-Alliance and shape it up for openpli-oe-core.
