ViX 6.3.003 bogs my box down

[Micci]

Somezing german has slipped into the 6.3.003 package for the Duo 4K SE?
My box had some screens in german flicker by when I was restoring my backup at 1st boot. Never done that before.
And I believe german images don't work too well together with CI+ cards.

Herr Flick of ze Gestapo has gone undercover inside our boxes?

The German is not in our enigma (based on a search of the enigma repo and its translations) so must be coming from some third party module.

From debug log:

< 225.4017> 16:15:13.3582 [CI] eDVBCIInterfaces setInputSource(10, CI1)
< 225.4027> 16:15:13.3591 [CI] Slot: 1 setSource: K
< 228.8615> 16:15:16.8179 eDVBCICAManagerSession::setCAIDs casCount = 0

and that continues about 3 min and 13 sec after that no disturbancies and no picture freezing. But it still shows 'no module found' ...

Flashed to 6.3.003 again and am testing the Finnsat/Neotion CA module instead of the Smit module. Now everything seems to be working. But the CI info is all in german, just like Tappari said.

Will try to see if I can make a multiboot and have my .002 in the other boot slot, just in case.

Is there a fix coming for those who have a Smit CI+ module? Someone on the Finnish forum noticed there were some changes to the CI files between .002 and .003.
Everything was running like a dream until .003.
IF IT WORKS, DON’T FIX IT.

I also noticed a difference during 1st boot between .002 and .003. I used the exact same Settings Backup file and restored settings & plugins to both images using the file.

.002 restore went without a hitch and rebooted to a working setup. Both CI+ modules are working.

.003 showed a message in german about a CI error (”CI fehler”) during the restore, until it eventually finished and rebooted. The Smit CI+ module doesn’t work. The Neotion module works, but it’s a bit slow with channel changes.

Yes, but it didn't work for most modules. Now it works on a lot more modules than before, although some are not compatible with the change.

With which modules it didn`t work? And what are those lot more modules?
Please list them.

[Orlandox]

Yes, but it didn't work for most modules. Now it works on a lot more modules than before, although some are not compatible with the change.

Is it possible to add a selectable parameter to 'CiSelection' menu, where you can select your module type ? Then both module types should work OK.

[Micci]

Yes, but it didn't work for most modules. Now it works on a lot more modules than before, although some are not compatible with the change.

You can't be serious that I'll have to throw away BOTH my modules. One of them is a very new one (supposed to be state-of-the-art) and it started working very sluggishly after the update (channel changes are much slower). Both were working just fine before.

Can you list the modules that DO work, so I don't waste any more money on the wrong one.

Why did you at first deny that there were any changes to the CI files, when there clearly are? And why don't these problems affect any other boxes, just the Duo 4K SE?

Again, if it works, don't fix it.

[tappari]

I have 4 modules and SmartWi 3 with 4 client cards. Ultimo4K, Duo4K SE, Uno4K SE and Sony tv are using those.
I`m not going to by 3 new adapters and pair them just because of 6.3 003 image failures.
I just use VU+ Multiboot and 002 image and watch if you and OpenBlackHole team can fix it.

With which modules it didn`t work? And what are those lot more modules?
Please list them.

How can anyone list which modules work and which ones don't, without having access to every module out there to test with ?

[Micci]

How can anyone list which modules work and which ones don't, without having access to every module out there to test with ?

Then how can one say it works with a lot more modules, if they can't test them?

[Ev0]

Has anyone tried using the openpli ci helper files, to see if anything changes (for the better or for the worse) ?

[Samzam]

There always has been two kind of images related to ci-modules. German based group OpenATV, OpenBH, VTi and UK based group OpenVIX, PurE2, OpenPLi. Some modules works only in German group and some modules work only in UK group and some might work on both. Now OpenVIX has jumped to German group and my ci-module is working only in UK group so I must change a enigma2 image to somenthing other if I want to get newest image updates.

[tappari]

This is true. Along with VU+ Multiboot ViX adopted too many things from BH image.
