          Looks like it does not work VU+ boxes.
          I used the latest master branch (installed the complete module new).
          All api paths have been checked and return xml data.

          Dreambox DM7020HD:

          $ pm2 restart mm

          On the Mirror a list of channels is seen.

          VU+ zero:

            @evroom that’s EXACTLY what happens on my mirror as an owner of a Vu+ product.

            @AxLed can you please look into this? :)

              Can you please post your config for MMM-Dreambox (as i guess there are two problems):

              1. at least one of your links are wrong or VU+ uses different syntax (for the xml links)
              2. i think node_helper.js line 129 is wrong in my code, i cant correct it without testing (error.code is null and my code expects an value)
              apiBase: 
              omxargs:
              refreshInterval: 
              apiabout: 
              apiservices: 
              apiepgnow:
              apizap:
              apiTimerlist: 
              apiServicelistplayable:
              apibouquet: 0, //bouquet, if there is more than one under apiservices (/web/getallservices), important apiepgnow and apiServicelistplayable have to match to the selected bouquet
              listmax:

                Hi AxLed,

                Here is my VU+ config:

                {
                module: 'MMM-Dreambox',
                disabled: false,
                position:"top_left",
                header: 'Dreambox',
                config: {
                  apiBase: 'http://192.168.178.47:80',
                  omxargs: ' --win 0,625,590,957 -o both ',
                  refreshInterval: 1000 * 30, //refresh every 30 seconds
                  apiabout: '/web/about',
                  apiservices: '/web/getallservices',
                  apiepgnow: '/web/epgnow?bRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM%20BOUQUET%20%22userbouquet.favourites.tv%22%20ORDER%20BY%20bouquet',
                  apizap: '/web/zap?sRef=',
                  apiTimerlist: '/web/timerlist',
                  apiServicelistplayable: '/web/servicelistplayable?sRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM%20BOUQUET%20%22userbouquet.favourites.tv%22%20ORDER%20BY%20bouquet',
                  apibouquet: 0,
                  listmax: 10,
                }
                },
                

                To be honest, I do not see any difference between a Dreambox and a VU Plus, in fact the bRef and sRef are exactly the same and even the same as in the README.
                But if you say there is a difference …

                If the line 129 needs modifying, I can do so by hand.
                Perhaps will save you some time.

                And could you tell us if you tested on a VU+ or on a Dreambox (or both) ?

                  To answer your questions:

                  • i tested on a dreambox (dm800se) with a single dvb-c tuner
                  • modifying line 129 could help, i need the output of ‘error’ and ‘response’, as i only check for ‘error’ (true/false) and only for response.Statuscode 200 and 404.

                  I have some questions too:

                  • if you enter http://192.168.178.47:80/web/servicelistplayable?sRef=1%3A7%3A1%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3AFROM BOUQUET "userbouquet.favourites.tv" ORDER BY bouquet in you browser, is there xml showing up?
                  • if not, what else is shown?
                  • the xml files you send me on 29th of december, where they from your dreambox or from VU+?
                  • if the were from the dreambox, can you please send me the following file from your VU+ by email ak10zeichen-xy@yahoo.de :
                  • http://192.168.178.47:80/web/getallservices

                  So i can check what is going wrong.

                    Yes, now I remember that you used a dm800se.
                    And then it was you who explained me how to post xml data in this forum (which I forgot again).

                    The xml files from December were from a Dreambox.
                    Perhaps you mean that the syntax of the xml data is different, not the syntax in the config file.
                    Then I understand.

                    The servicelistplayable URL return xml data, as do all /web/ calls.

                    The getallservices xml data will arrive by mail in a minute.

                      Thanks for the files, i tested with your files, but i am getting a different error:
                      Your error (some topics above): Problem at servicelistplayable
                      My error (with your VU xml files): Problem in MMM-Dreambox.js at line 387, where the timerlist expects a value. I can fix this error, somehow my code expects at least one timer.

                      Can you please tell me, at which point/line of code you get an error?
                      If your error is in MMM-Dreambox.js at line 387 can you try to add one timer in the future an test again?

                        Sent you a timer list.

                        The last time I checked, the error pointed to line 129.

                        Unfortunately my DLAN adaptor died where my MagicMirror and other devices are connected.
                        When it works again, I can answer the other questions.

                          So i can fix the handling of an “empty” timerlist meanwhile, but this will take until the end of the week.

                          I am looking forward to hear from you if your DLAN adoptor is back online.

                            Just sent you pm2 logs output.
                            There is a lot more than I initialy placed on the forum.
                            I thought all errors were the same, but the node_helper.js line differ.

                              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

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

                                      git clone --branch dev https://github.com/Ax-LED/MMM-Dreambox.git

                                      Unfortunately still (the same?) errors:

                                        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.

                                          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.
