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

I do see a white box on top of the Mirror, but I do not see the text.
Can it be it is white text over a white background ?

There is something wrong with the MM css of notifications on some MM versions, its not my module, i think there are already solutions in the forum.

Can you post your MMM-Dreambox config.

@Cr4z33
Are you trying to stream a sd or hd channel, as hd streaming needs mpg license on the pi.
If you dont have a mpg license try streaming a sd channel.

@evroom

I did some further bugfixing / adding usability:

• catching error if you want to DB-PLAY before selecting a channel: MM shows notification that no channel is selected
• catching error if you want to DB-STOP before streaming: exiting css formating
• selected channel will stay selected, even if refresh intervall get new datas from receiver
• play symbol will stay selected, only DB-STOP and selection of new channel removes it

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

Now the module should work a little bit smoother and shows the user some information if some of the functions a used in the wrong order.

@BKeyport
Your config looks wrong, to much commas here in there. Try standard config of MMM-Buttons (Readme) and just change pin.

If you watch MM in your browser, hit F12 then you should see, if a button press was send.

Ich hatte ein ähnliches Problem mit meinem LG Monitor, die Lösung ist zwar nicht schön aber funktioniert.
Der Monitor verhält sich bei Grafiksignaltrennung unter VGA anders als unter HDMI, so habe ich mir einen HDMI->VGA Adapter am Pi angeschlossen und den Monitor mit VGA verkabelt, so geht es wie es soll (kein Signal Meldung nur für wenige Sekunden).

Keine Angst bei VGA, VGA kann auch FullHD Auflösung.

I had a similar problem with my LG monitor, the solution is not nice but works.
The monitor behaves differently in graphic signal shutdown under VGA than under HDMI, so I have an HDMI-> VGA adapter at the Pi connected and wired the monitor with VGA, it works as it should (no signal message only for a few seconds).

Do not worry at VGA, VGA can also use FullHD resolution.

@Cr4z33
Can you please describe it a little more detailed.
So i guess the module loads and shows you the following information:

• your VU+ Model
• the name of the favorites list (you entered in config.js) an number channels in that list
• the channel list, limited to the number you entered in config.js

Can you please comment or confirm the points mentioned above?

If the module load, you have to:

1. select a channel (DB-SERVICE-NEXT or DB-SERVICE-PREV), otherwise the module doesnt know which channel should be streamed.
2. choose DB-PLAY the start streaming the selected channel.

Screenshots:
Module loaded:

Select a channel:

DB-PLAY send (unfortunatelly i can show omxplayer on my dev machine):

I did some further bugfixing:

• added catching of error 401 unauthorized (this is when in enigma2 receiver webinterface setting Enable HTTP Authentication is set to yes)
• added a stop of omxplayer before starting a new stream, so streaming of more than one unwanted streams should now work
• added readme with some enigma2 receiver requirements (Enable HTTP Authentication and powerstate)

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

Now the module should work with

• more informations on wrong enigma2 receiver settings
• the streaming of multiple channels should be fixed

Regards

AxLED

@evroom
I will try the authentication thing if i find some time, maybe i can catch the error and handle it, so the module user know what to do.

@evroom said in [MMM-Dreambox]:

Cannot test this now without being killed by the family

@evroom
Welcome to my world :-)

I have another idea:
Did you check/compare the settings on your tuners (dreambox vs. VU+).
I case of my dreambox (DM800SE) they are under:

• Erweiterungen -> Webinterface
• Extensions -> Webinterface (maybe the spelling is different, as i translated them into english)

This is a screenshot of my actual setting (i only played around with the HTTP Port to fix some earlier bugs):
