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