Is there a list of dvb tuners working with this image? I've tried with with my af9035 USB stick but it's not recognized automatically....

It seems that the French MHW does not work
I do not know why.
Does not work with an embedded MHW nor with those of CrossEPG
I talking about the Satellite MHW epg not one from internet server.
Perhaps the problem with the French SAT provider.

Thanks Matrix10,

As I wrote, MHW epg works with my DM8000 using ICVS from september (before DMM closed enigma2 open sourse). So the problem does not come from CSAT....
As I just discovered Black Hole image very recently, I don't know if this functionality was implemented in BH image for dreambox in the past ? What I know, enigma2 must be patched to get it working (it is not a plugin).
Getting EPG from the sat is much more comfortable than with internet, because it is always working (unlike Rytec) ; 10 seconds on GuideTV or Data1 and all is complete.

I hope the team can find a solution for the French community.

Thanks in advance.

A few months ago the CSAT MHW EPG worked on BH images
with MHW EPG which is embedded in the image as well with the MHW2 EPG within CrossEPG.
Something is changed
What I do not know at this moment.
I have not tested with Dreambox,But I doubt that works there at the moment ???

Hello Matrix10,

What is strange is Black hole on UNO gets all the datas and put them in cache, but seems not able to display them (parsing problem ?) See the Popup below

And the result on the DM8000 (ICVS from september 2011)

In playing recorded channel, after 20 or 30 mn the reader freezes.
I stop and clear memory and restart and it runs fine.
Sometimes, i click on remote key "Audio", "Ok" and it restarts good.
This problem appears also in reading mkv files.

Exactly the same for me...

I've tried some MKV from my external HDD (USB) and all works fine.
If you have problems with some files, please post some useful reports about these files.
No report = impossible help you.

Try to record a channel and you will have that after 30 or 50 mn of reading. Same problem in reeading mkv after the same time.
I use an internal sata HDD, the files type is recorded in the VU+ foraat

There seems to be a serious problem with the use of hard disk.
I made some tests (see below), and the result is the free memory vanishes very fast if we use the skip forward function (with key 3 , 6,9).
Even if we stop watching a recorded program, the memory is not restored.
I think that is the explanation of the freezes of the picture.

My tests :

I have no added plugin nor picon and so on. I use cross epg on a usb stick.

Hope the Team can fix it soon.

Yes, the memory isn't cleared.
I have just add "Dream-Explorer" and "Change root password" plugins and i use picons installed on an USB key.

Hi guys, timeshift doesn't work for me. I'm not using any additional plugins, I have an internal sata hdd.

This script is very interesting to clean RAM.
You need to copy it in "Script" directory with for example the file name "Free-Ram.sh". Put the file property to 755.
With it, you can see the used memory before and after clean. In some cases is very impressive.(after reading a movie file)

#! /bin/sh
#DESCRIPTION=This script shows Used ram and try to free it "a bit"

echo "#######################################################################"
echo "before clean"
free
echo "#######################################################################"
echo ".............cleaning"
sync
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
sleep 1
echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo "#######################################################################"
echo "after clean"
free
echo "#######################################################################"

exit 0

There is another strange issue with internal sata Hard disk: sometimes, coming from standby the disk is no more present.....even in main menue (my disk is a classic 500GB Western Digital 7200 t/min)

There seems to be something wrong in the initialization or mounting process.

For information, I tested quickly the last VTI : Media High Way EPG for CSAT works perfectly (so come on Black Hole Team :evil: ) ; but the problem with the detection of the hard disk is also present.

Hello,

I solved the hard disk problem (lost or freezes in picture after using several times the skip forward function) by mounting the hard disk into an external powered box (like Icybox) and connecting it with the e-sata cable to the UNO.

Now it works perfectly and I can use the skip forward or backward as many times I want with no freeze at all. :ice:
