Ok so I fixed the script so now it downloads the EPG for Sky UK to my harddrive. It works fine. I am missing about half the channels epg.

This is on Gemini 4.7 clone DM800

I will provide the result once I have it all working correctly. I need the following;

1. a complete 28.2 lamedb - a very recent one please
2. I need the latest bskybsat-channel_list.conf also please.

The whole process takes about 1.5 hrs to get the full EPG.

I have only configured this for an internal HD but there is just a few path changes if its for elsewhere.

basically this is how to do it.

Trumpton Blog - LTImage Installation on the Dreambox

just make sure all your paths in the config file and the files here point to the correct place and hda1 if internal hard drive for example.

[targettarget]

the reason why your box won't reboot is that you edit the file and ftp it back.

I had to use vi to edit the file on the unit. the enigma2.sh file

to open
vi enigma2.sh
to insert
i
type in what you need
to stop editing
esc
to save and quit type
:wq

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: -

#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: -

#!/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.

works with gemini 4.7 clone dm800 if you edit the files directly with vi

CrossEpg wand 28,2E not works

It works with 13E. When it tries to get epg from 28.2E, the picture just dissapears and I see window "starting downloader"... And thats all. It can't switch to a valid 28,2 channel I suppose...
Anyone can help with solution?

Ok so I fixed the script so now it downloads the EPG for Sky UK to my harddrive. It works fine. I am missing about half the channels epg.

This is on Gemini 4.7 clone DM800

[trampa]

when selecting the plugin it goes "loading" and comes back to the plugin list
