    Guide to install Crossepg with Gemini enigma2 images - 7 day Sky EPG

    This guide is based on a Satellite Enigma2 Dreambox with latest Gemini image installed.
    Dreambox must have a HDD installed although a DM7025 can be set to use a CF card for the epg.

    1. Transfer crossepg-enigma2_0.3.2-svn-33_mipsel.ipk to /tmp/
    2. Using blue panel file manager navigate to /tmp/, then highlight crossepg-enigma2_0.3.2-svn-33_mipsel.ipk and press green button to install.
    3. Using you favourite ftp program navigate to /usr/bin/ and transfer enigma2.sh to your desktop.
    4. Now again using your favourite ftp program navigate to /usr/crossepg/ and copy crossepg_epgmove.sh to you desktop.
    5. Using a unix compatible editor such as crimson editor attached edit enigma2.sh as follows: -

    Under #Scripte copy this line /usr/crossepg/crossepg_epgmove.sh start

    So it should be something like this: -
    PHP Code:
    #Scripte
    /usr/script/syslogd_script.sh restart
    [ ! -e /proc/fs/nfsd/exports ] && /usr/script/nfs_server_script.sh start
    /usr/script/inadyn_script.sh start
    /usr/script/httpd_script.sh start
    /usr/script/djmount_script.sh start
    /usr/script/ushare_script.sh start
    /usr/script/crond_script.sh restart
    /usr/crossepg/crossepg_epgmove.sh start 
    
    6. Again using a unix compatible editor edit crossepg_epgmove.sh, edit the paths to suit your image, but with Gemini images it should look like this: -
    PHP Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    HOME=`echo $0 | sed "s/crossepg_epgmove\.sh//"`
    
    if [ -f "$HOME/crossepg.config" ] # if configuration exist
    then
        DBROOT=`cat $HOME/crossepg.config | grep db_root= | sed "s/db_root=//"`
    else # else default path
        DBROOT="/media/hda1/crossepg"
    fi
    
    if [ -f "$DBROOT/ext.epg.dat" ] # try on configuration path
    then
        echo copying ext.epg.dat from $DBROOT
        $HOME/crossepg_epgcopy "$DBROOT/ext.epg.dat" /media/hda1/gemini.epg.dat
    elif [ -f "/media/hda1/crossepg/ext.epg.dat" ] # if we have a bad path try with default path
    then
        echo copying gemini.epg.dat from /media/hda1/crossepg/
        $HOME/crossepg_epgcopy /media/hda1/crossepg/ext.epg.dat /media/hda1/gemini.epg.dat
    else # no epg found
        echo ext.epg.dat not found
    fi 
    
    7. Ftp your edited engima2.sh from your desktop back to /usr/bin/
    8. Ftp your edited crossepg_epgmove.sh from your desktop back to /usr/crossepg/
    8. Reboot your dreambox.
    9. Once rebooted goto Menu and you will now see Crossepg in Setup, so press Menu>Setup>Crossepg and adjust settings to suit. You can set to update daily & use CF card for epg if installed.
    10. Press Green button for plugins, select Crossepg. Dreambox will now switch to hiphop music channel and update, then automatically switch back to tv channel once updated. At the end of the process the dreambox will reboot.
    11. Enjoy 7 days worth of EPG

    Tools Crimson editor and Crossepg attached.

    @ Mods feel free to make this a sticky This is a hell of a lot easier to setup & run than E2_loadepg.

            Have you followed the instructions to the letter?

            Once installed did you press menu > setup > crossepg & configure it?

                    Tried this on my DM800. Got to the reboot stage but it never rebooted. Kept trying and eventually had to reflash

                        ive got this working fine and epgs all listed for 7 days. I do however see that it DOES NOT reboot once the script is run. Any idea why? Without the reboot the epg doesnt update so i would have to manually reboot to get it to update each day. Is there a fix for this?

                          What image are you using? I noticed the same thing on the latest Gemini image. I then went back to an older image and it re-booted ok.
