hi everyone.
i've been a long time E1/E2 user, have had many dreamboxes. the quality of the DM tuners being what it is, i decided to try a Vuplus zero receiver to replace my dying DM800HD
as BH seems to be made for VU+ receivers, i decided to flash it (did not even boot on the original image).
i'm quite happy with 2.1.7, however i need to improve some points, and i hope you will be able to test.
i've an USB stick (Kingston DTII 32gb) for timeshift, epg.dat and eventually picons. (mounted as /media/hdd)
formatted in ext2 due to permanent timeshift failing to write on ntfs or fat32.
permanent timeshift (final 1.0.0.0) starts after 10 sec on the USB stick.
-when i go to channels list, and press OK on a channel, there is often a 3sec delay before the VU+ zap to the selected channel. how can i diagnose this? (picons/epg events are instant loaded so i don't think this is the reason);
-at the moment, picons have been downloaded in media/usb (which seems to be mapped in the flash and not on the USB). i don't find any way to choose the path myself, and i don't find a way to remap them.
flash being big enough, i see no real problem, unless you tell me it's wrong.
-when i press pause, then later play, half of the time i get nothing or get sound.
i have to press stop, wait the 20 sec it takes to come back to live, and start rewind.
this makes me think the USB stick speed is not the cause as i can watch it after.
i find the timeshift globally unstable
sometimes, when i press stop, instead of go direct to live, it parses the timeshift at 8x speed. i have to zap on another channel and come back to get the live. i
-i often seen the blue/white circle top left saying the STB is working on something, but no idea why.
-i'm unable to update crossepg in background. when it is downloading or parsing, i cannot zap or change volume.
positive point is that DLNA server to broadcast to my dying dreambox works like a charm, which is something i never achieved with openpli, so a big thanks for making it easy for noobs like me.
i'm tempted to go back to my comfort zone by flashing openpli, but i really like BH mentality and would like to have it stable enough for daily use. can you please advise on points here above?
thanks
