No video output, green band on display

[lincsat]

This is an occasional bug that I noticed once on 5.4.013, so I did a flash with settings restore to 5.4.016 and it has just happened again Today.

The screen goes blank with no output signal and on the front LED I just get a thick Green horizontal band. Box still responds to networking and init 4/ init 3 or killall -9 enigma2 doesn't recover, it needs a hard reboot.

No crash log is created, the last few entries from the debug log are below. I have a FTV card inserted but no CI module, the last entries suggest it's detected a CI module, could that be the problem?

hate to say it but flash to ViX 6.0 and lets see how it goes

I'm still using a plugin that's not fully compatible with PY3 yet, that's why I'm still with a PY2 image

Which plugin

[dsayers]

I'm still using a plugin that's not fully compatible with PY3 yet, that's why I'm still with a PY2 image

Majority of plugins have moved over to py3 now though there's still a few that haven't and unlikely will as they haven't been maintained for a few years.

[dsayers]

Speaking of plugins can developers produce py3 and pyo files without the need of .py files?

Sorry I realized that this wasn't in the testers thread, can this post be moved please?

You really need source, although obviously you can disassemble an ipk and get some python code

The IPTV Bouquet maker. There is a PY3 release but not downloading from the M3U4U editing site yet.

Huevos and I reworked that plugin to make it really work in py3, so the one in our 6.0 plugins should be fine, certainly has worked for us even with a difficult provider (redirected url‘s)

I tried the build in the feeds and it behaves the same as the build from BliNeR-KeY - It doesn't download from the M3U4U editor site. I don't know if it checks the link before downloading thereby triggering the flood protection or it doesn't like the format.

Perhaps you can enlighten me as to what the M3U4U editor site does for/with the IPTV Bouquet Maker -pm me if there are issues not for discussion here. Just interested because the e2m3u2 bouquets generated are pretty easily modified.

[lincsat]

It's a channel/group sorter and EPG source. The site downloads the M3U or API from the host, then you can sort the channels or assign EPG for channels that do not have it on the host server.

I have used the override file for sorting but find the M3U4U site easier. It's also useful for servers that have blocked M3U download, you can download the API and then use the M3U4U M3U file in the bouquet maker.

You can use the M3U4U site for free if you wanted to have a look and see what's happening.

So you are using the M3u4u online facilities to edit and then get the IPTV Bouquet Maker to read and generate the bouquets?

[lincsat]

That's pretty much it, yes.

[twol]

That's pretty much it, yes.

so how do you tell e2m3u2bouquet to process it ? in the config.xml ? and if so what doesn't e2m3u2bouqet dislike?
you can post an edited e2m3u2bouquet log and E2 debug log if that helps

just trying to fix the issue for you!
