      @axled sorry for replaying late again, but I always work at night. :winking_face:

      Do you still need my config or are you already done?

            I did some bugfixing:

            • bugfixing in error response (node_helper.js)
            • bugfix in handling timerlist if empty (MMM-Dreambox.js)

            Please check the dev branch of my module:

            • Rename your MMM-Dreambox folder to _MMM-Dreambox (for example)
            • do a git clone --branch dev https://github.com/Ax-LED/MMM-Dreambox.git in your modules folder

            Tell me what happens now, if you try to connect to VU+ receiver.
            Regards

                I also tried the Dreambox.
                There are no errors and the play list is shown on the Mirror.
                However, there is a problem when you put the port in the config.js:

                pi@MagicPi:~ $ ps -eaf | grep omxplayer | grep -v grep
                pi       20618 20445  1 22:07 ?        00:00:00 /bin/sh -c omxplayer  --vol -6000 --win 0,625,590,957 --live http://192.168.178.28:80:8001/1:0:1:2EE3:441:1:C00000:0:0:0:
                pi       20619 20618  1 22:07 ?        00:00:00 /bin/bash /usr/bin/omxplayer --vol -6000 --win 0,625,590,957 --live http://192.168.178.28:80:8001/1:0:1:2EE3:441:1:C00000:0:0:0:
                pi       20642 20619  0 22:07 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/omxplayer.bin --vol -6000 --win 0,625,590,957 --live http://192.168.178.28:80:8001/1:0:1:2EE3:441:1:C00000:0:0:0:
                

                You see that streaming uses port 8001, so you get 80:8001 as port.

                In my case, I use the standard port 80, so I can leave it out, but for example @Cr4z33 uses a different port, so he will not be able to stream.

                So, my suggestion is to set the port as a separate variable in the config and only use it where necessary.

                  Other observations (tested with Dreambox dm7020hd).

                  1/
                  When I start the Mirror, I no channel is selected.
                  Then when you do DB-PLAY as first remote command, the list on the Mirror will have a grey background (as if everything is selected) and nothing is streamed.

                  2/
                  When you do DB-PLAY, I get multiple streams.
                  I reported this before.

                  pi@MagicPi:~ $ ps -eaf | grep omxplayer | grep -v grep
                  pi       20862 20720  0 22:14 ?        00:00:00 /bin/sh -c omxplayer  --vol -6000 --win 0,625,590,957 --live http://192.168.178.28:8001/1:0:1:2EE3:441:1:C00000:0:0:0:

                  3/ After a while the selection of a channel disappears.
                  The selection sometimes is just a grey background and sometimes a grey background with a play button.

                  4/ My Dreambox has 2 tuners.
                  I probably see the “now playing” from tuner A, whilst tuner B is streaming.
                  As the selection disappears, I do not know which channel is streaming.

                    Answer to the 5 errors in node_helper.js:
                    I comment the lines out, please try again with the dev branch.

                      About the error for following usage: Dreambox and Dreambox-IP with a port.
                      I will have to do some testing and come back to you if i have the solution.

                        As the selection disappears, I do not know which channel is streaming.

                        Here are some answers:
                        to 1: Thats true, if module is loaded no channel is selected. Normally you should select a channel first an then start streaming (by DB-PLAY)
                        to 2: I dont understand at which point you get multiple streams. If no channel was selected before?
                        to 3: Thats true, if a channel is selected, the background of the selection should be grey. The grey selection will be reseted (to black background), if a refresh of datas is done (duration depends on your refresh interval in config.js). The refresh is hardly to see on the mirror, as i dont do a update.dom, i am updating the relevant dom datas directly. The play symbol is shown if you send a DB-PLAY after selection, so you can see that streaming will start within the next seconds. Because after start of streaming the datas are updatet, the grey selection and the play symbols dissapear.
                        to 4: On my dreambox, if a start a stream on MM, the first line of the module now playing shows the channel i am streaming (if you dont defined the size of stream to full screen). I have no idea, what would be shown on now playing on a 2 tuner box.

                        Most of the issues can be fixed, but i would like to get the some other issues (see this thread) fixed first.
