Python 2, the main GUI software of enigma2, first released in 2000, was abandoned by the the developers of Python on 1st January 2020 in favour of Python 3, which has been available since 2006.
This means that if we at OpenViX want to maintain compatibility with the latest advances in software that surrounds enigma2 we must switch to Python 3.
After a lot of work we now have a fully working Python 3 test image.
So we now need people that are willing to test the new Python 3 image.
All that is needed is flash your receiver with the new Py3 image, switch on debug logs, and use the box as normal, reporting any bugs or crashes.
If any forum members are interested please post below with details of your receiver (brand and model).
Thanks.
