CrossEPG Full Sly EPG

**2685danny** · 6th March, 2011, 01:51 PM

first of all i know there is a few of these thred's but this was buy far the easiest and its the most recent i think.

i am using gemini 5.1 on a DM800 clone enigma 2 the most recent sgt flip flop's bouquets http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...ularly-163750/
thanks for that sgt flip flop's
Not sure what other versions it will work on.

Download CrossEPG attched "enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-crossepg-oe1.6_0.6.0-svn-177_mipsel.ipk".

Transfer with FTP to the /tmp directory.

using the Gemini File Manager --> /tmp --> highlight the file "enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-crossepg-oe1.6_0.6.0-svn-177_mipsel.ipk" and press the Green Button (Install) to install.

Reboot the box.

Initial Configuration "CrossEPG" should appear under both menu>setup and under menu>plugins).

with a compatible editor edit the file /usr/bin/enigma2.sh

and before the line LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libopen.so.0.0 /usr/bin/enigma2

add this line

/usr/crossepg/crossepg_epgmove.sh

enter menu>setup >crossepg>configure
set storage device ...... Preferably hardisk (i had trouble with this )
preferred lamedb ..... mainlamedb
enable csv import ..... no
force epg reload on reboot.....no
download on tune......yes
scheduled download .....every hour
show as plugin ......yes
show as extention ......yes
(i think the only important one is storage device)

exit configure

and select menu>setup >crossepg>openTVproviders

press yellow (download)
then select your provider/sat i selected Sly uk open tv(astra2 on 28.2)

In Gemini Blue panel --> settings --> EPG:
Make sure the top EPG options are all off. In the bottom panel use:
File cache ..... on
change the filename ...... epg.dat
location ..... /media/hdd
Automatically save ..... off.

YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THE CACHE FILE NAME TO EPG.DAT, otherwise it will not work.

Restart again

now goto menu>setup >crossepg>download now.
it will run and retrive epg data

Restart again

now goto menu>setup >crossepg>download now.it will run and retrive epg data again.

now you should have full epg

check via epg or menu>infomation>EPG

it shoud read something like this :
116965 Events in 716 services
EPG used 6.0mb memory

if your using mutiple providers and sat's it will be larger.

have you tryed

blue button > plugins

or

blue button > addons

there is other epg sources in the plugins

but cross epg works on most enigma2 images.

there are others avaliable on the plugin servers but the ones that save the epg data to your flash / ram can fill up your boxes flash / ram and cause the box to crash (the green reboot screen)

It will install and you can select USB in the configure menu. You will have to change the other file locations so it might work.

ok i got as far as adding the /usr/crossepg/crossepg_epgmove.sh to enigma2.sh

when i go to configure it just comes up with the message

'No disk found! Please install an hard disk or an usb memory storage and try again'

What can i do to fix this? i am trying to get this to work without the hard drive and if needs be i have a memory key that i can use.

Any help is appreciated

if you install i to flash memory it crashes i running with a harddisk. i can rember seeing my USB in the configure but i canot confirm if it wouldof worked.

do you have a usb mounted if so try remounting and/or restart box it had trouble finding my HDD event though it was mounted.

hope this helps

you could try /usr/crossepg/crossepg.configure

change the db_root=/media/thename of your USB device/crossepg

you will have to create the crossepg folder (the one in green)

Code:

 
db_root=/media/hdd/crossepg
lamedb=lamedb
providers=skyuk_astra2_28.2|krkadoni_skyuk_xepgdb
force_load_on_boot=0
download_daily_enabled=1
download_daily_hours=4
download_daily_minutes=0
download_daily_reboot=1
download_tune_enabled=1
download_manual_reboot=0
download_standby_enabled=0
last_full_download_timestamp=0
last_partial_download_timestamp=0
csv_import_enabled=0
show_plugin=1
show_extension=1

Hi Danny.

I'm using an icvs gp3 image. I have gp3 plugin and tunisiasat plugin installed.

I currently have my crossepg set to HDD. I have installed a 4gb usb pen in the back of my dm800 and it is recognised fine. my picons are installed on there and they work great.

However..... I do not get a usb option in the configure crossepg storage device.
I can also not find the /usr/crossepg/crossepg.configure as you suggest.

Any help appreciated.

cheeers,

M

those having problems with cross epg recognising your hard disk, then try this.

take your hard disk out and reformat using ''gparted''
in ext3 format.

i had many isuues messing around with my new hd which i installed, then getting gemini to format for me didnt help a single bit!!!

but after using gparted, i installed the drive back in again, and everything worked just fine.
