[MMM-Dreambox] to connect a Dreambox or a Enigma2 Receiver (like VU or VU+) to MagicMirror and stream stations via omxplayer

@Eisblume
I have some ideas and need your feedback:

is there a special reason why you are using the dev branch? If not, try the master branch instead
is streaming of recordings working?
your log shows that omx player is doing something, please consider it takes up to 15 seconds before a stream starts after you send DB-Play
are your enigma2 settings on your VU like this (similar, the following screenshot is of a Dreambox DM800SE with a oozoon image):

Hey Guys,

thanks a lot for your help. I checked everything you mentioned.

But at last the problem was that I did everything which is written in the Tutorial for installing MagicMirror on a Raspberry ;-) !

In the Tutorial for “Configuring the Raspberry Pi” is recommended to enable the OpenGL-Driver. I did it before installing anything else.
But this was the Problem, when I disable this driver, omxplayer works fine with this module.

I am glad the module works for you.
Have fun.

Yes, works perfect as you can see on the picture.

Now I finally have to build the frame with the mirror ;-).

Hallo, i installed the module like in github say.

After install and restart! this is the log after starting:

@sdetweil
many thanks
Update:
The list is coming and with http://192.168.3.140:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION&notification=DB-SERVICE-NEXT i can go up and down in the Favourites.
When i put http://192.168.3.140:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION&notification=DB-PLAY in a browser,
on the epglist comes the play sign but no video?
The test with: omxplayer http://192.168.3.105:8002/1:0:1:2F1D:441:1:C00000:0:0:0:
is fine and the video is playing fine.

any tip for me

I solved it myself :-)

The problem was that no video was played. With Omxplayer and the direct streamlink it did.

But! My VU Solo2 sends 2 streams, one normal and one transcoded. I think the second one is the weakened one for weak players :-)

The original stream goes through port 8001 and the transcoded one through 8002, and that was the solution.
I changed that in the node_helper.js at DB-PLAY.

It would be great if you could set this individually in the config.

Deutsch:
Probblem war das kein Video abgespielt wurde. Mit Omxplayer und dem direkten streamlink hat es aber getan.

Aber! Meine VU Solo2 sendet 2 streams, einmal den Normalen und einmal den Transkodierten. Ich denke der zweite ist der abgeschwächte für schwache Player :-)

Der Original Stream läuft über den port 8001 und er Transkodierte über 8002, und das war die lösung.
Ich habe das in der node_helper.js geändert bei DB-PLAY.

Es wäre toll wenn man das in der Config Individuell einstellen könnte.

Now I need some help,

why doesn’t it show me the EPG info.
can I put it in 2 columns next to each other (to save space) with so many channels?
and last but not least
When you press DB-PLAY it takes about 5-10 seconds until the video comes, can you set a status bar with a sample message until the stream starts: Video coming or similar.

Thank you very much
And this module is awesome :-)
