I have the same proble. I'm on Open Black Hole with last updates
i have instaled this plug exactly with ur tutorial step by step

enigma2-plugin-extensions-subssupport_1.5.1_20150320_all.ipk

enigma2-plugin-extensions-mediaplayer2_0.59_20150320_all.ipk

python-xmlrpc_2.7.2-r7.17_mips32el.ipk


On Open Black Hole, all is perfect but the proble i think is with the files plugin.py, when i open XBMC, i have a little screen with the logo with the menu of xbmc but blocked with sound of satelite

And with the original plugin.py, the xbmc open correctly but when i open a video, i have a black screen


my configuration: Vu+ Solo2 with Mymetrix HD on open black hole 0.1 with last updates

Use Ftp program or Dreambox Control Center

On your /media/hdd root directory, you´ll have a directory named ---> /.xbmc
delete it ---> this gonna make xbmc at virgin state
reboot your STB

Open Xbmc on plugins and let it go until it ope, you should now open XMBC and play with it!

You don´t need to remove mediaplayer ( classic embebed on image OBH ), cause you can put only MEDIAPLAYER2 on Menu.

Note: On Blackhole images ( 2.1.x ) mediaplayer appear on MENU ( by setting it ), when you installed MEDIAPLAYER2 it brings you on MENU 2 Mediaplayer ( Mediaplayer ( classic ) and Mediaplayer2, but when open it you knowed what Mediaplayer are you using.

On Open Blackhole Mediaplayer ( Classic ), remanins on plugins, this avoid to open Mediaplayer on MENU!

So, no need to do that ( don´t remove it! ), alias you only can remove it by FTP and on using MANUAL DELETING ( directory delete ).

I think, if you make an update, don´t install it, only install if you by Telnet execute this command:

Opkg update

You have to give permissions to show hidden folders on DCC.

Open DCC and click EXPERT

1) - Exit DCC

2) - Open DCC

When connected you should see /.xbmc on your /media/hdd root directory

Click delete to erase /.xbmc directory

Reboot the STB

Open XBMC

its just illogic because in this tutorial, the admin write instal those 3 files then why to deplace the plugin.py on tmp

1 ) - install ---> python-difflib_2.7.3-r5.3.9_mips32el.ipk

2 ) - install ---> enigma2-plugin-extensions-subssupport_1.5.2_20150407_all.ipk

3 ) - install ---> enigma2-plugin-extensions-mediaplayer2_0.59_20150320_all.ipk

Plugin.py moded you may put /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/Xbmc

Forget plugin.py on tmp folder ---> it will disappear when you reboot the next time ( as is an temporary folder ).

Note: If you got allways a blackscreen ( You must got XBMC screen at begining ) when you open XBMC --> Maybe you have to reflash a new image. My STB is a Duo2 --> and this works !

You only can acess your movies via network, right?

If is the case take a look to this guide and test ... as i told you on previous posts ... i don´t have ... and i don´t play movies over network ... not even i use XBMC to play movies ( as i have a internal HDD on my DUO2 ).

I prefer over network --> move my movies to HDD with FTP tool, and play them locally!

but take a look to this guide ---> http://www.vuplus-community.net/boa...ws-7-hdd-movie-folder-with-your-vu-box.13258/

And adapt at your own and particular situation.

best regards

Note: Yours XBMC is working --> your acess to network via XBMC is not!, i think!
