I don't use CrossEPG but you con configure it into Menu->Setup.
It's the same version.
The bh.tgz package is needed only into BH images < 1.6.1 to make backup and restore into current and next BH images

That is strange, i had no problem with openvpn personal files.
Before manually delete the files openvpn didn't start?
Wow, brilliant, so it's only CrossEPG settings not restored. Well that only takes about 5 seconds to setup
. But multiquickbutton and coolmanguide takes much longer so that's great news!!Thanks!!!!!

How much EPG providers you have enabled/included for download ?
Have you installed some plugins ?
To briefly explain abt the work of the EPG
When you download the EPG data it goes into box memory
If the memory is full, then to big EPG causes enigma
crash In this way protects enigma image stability.
The same applies in case if there are errors in the EPG file.
When you instal more additions/plugins in the image
then you have even less memory for the EPG.
Which means that you have to download only the most important EPG providers
but less is better because then the memory remains free
for others within the image.
Which means memory is not a bottomless pot
and it can not receive EPG in your case, over 20 MB EPG data
If I have seen good in your crash log.
=======================================================
Some other information for those who use only CrossEPG
Disable in BH Epg Settings (Blue>>red>>red button>> Enable OpenTv Epg Loader no
>Enable Epg Popup no
Why this ?
Then you will have from provider with bad openTV/stream EPG
good epg from CrossEPG.
========================================================
If you have unresolved issues with EPG
Then you can see some information in the log file
(in /media/usb(hdd)/crossepg)
for example when the server is not working.
Additionally you can manually delete all these files. If you have bigger problems
and make dawnload again.
========================================================
If you want to clean all EPG from memory and from example > USB
(If you have some EPG problems)
Then you have to do restart GUI/E2
and then quickly enter for example /media/usb/crossepg /
and delete epg.dat and afterward other files in crossepg folder.
Now you can again config and download EPG with CrossEPG
with clean memory and crossepg folder.
=============================================================
The most important thing in all this
Be a very selective when you put/install something in the image
do not use to much EPG data
Download EPG only if you need
It is good for the image and for the EPG servers.
Thanks a lot Matrix10
I have enabled 04 providers from CrossEPG, and the plugins installed are: Imdb, Project valerie and Subtitle player.
I think there is something wrong with EPG path, in my case when i clic blue + red + red bouton the EPG path shown is: /autofs/sda1//epg.dat, and the EPG downloaded from CrossEpg is stored in /media/hdd/crossepg (ext.epg.dat)
Is it normal?

What shows Black Hole Devices panel Blue>>Blue>>Devices Manager>>Red (mountpoints)
Is your HDD mounted /dev/sda1 /media/hdd
??????
If not and I think is not mounted you have to mount and save red button
Path for epg Example USB stick
in BH epg Panel Blue>>Red>>Red button /media/usb/crossepg/epg.dat
in BH Devices Manager Panel Blue>>Blue>>Devices Manager>>Red (mount points)
/dev/sda1(?) /media/usb
in CrossEPG Setup Menu>>CrossEPG>>configure>>USB Stick
For HDD is similar

OK
If you have checked all the configurations that I wrote
in this case is your problem
that on one side you have plugins that require lots of memory
on the other hand you had over 20 MB EPG data.
only I do not understand how you had with 4 providers over 20 MB EPG
I've tested to download all providers and it is about 25 to 30 MB.
Of course on the clean image
and it was possible but I had at the end an unstable image
and as a finale enigma crash.
If you have a couple of plugins you can not use more than 20 MB EPG
probably about 10 to 15 MB
especially not if you use bigger plugins that you use now.
HDD/USB is just a place to share EPG dat
between memory and crossepg
at the start and restart image
all epg go to memory and back to the HDD or USB
if you make restart or Shutdown.

i would like to sugest an improvement to this feature...It's the same version.
The bh.tgz package is needed only into BH images < 1.6.1 to make backup and restore into current and next BH images
is it possible to make a backup of ccam config files in /etc and ***** config files in /etc/tuxbox/config ??? (only if the files exists)
I think it is the few faults of this script...
thank's

I think you have to test the P.B. plugin before to suggest any improvement...

you're the best
