Hi,

I like the box, but I have a unicable/scr Sat installation.
Can I use the Box for it?

I read in a TV Headend Forum, that it is possible with TV Headend. But the question ist, what can I do on the Box and can I modify TV Headend?

thanks and regards

I have another question.
Is it possible to install an own version of tvheadend or have I use the version that is on the box?
I found a patched version which can handle unicable.

thanks and regards

Yes, compilation isn't problem.
But, You need (If You want keep also exist tvheadend) make it as "bundle" (that's mean, webui is compiled into binary and not sharing internal/default webui directory).
Newest versions haven't compatible webui with older, included in buildroot.
Also You need make folder for config files.

For expample:
- make Your prefered version of tvheadend as "bundle" type.
- rename it to, for example, tvh-unicable.
- copy into /usr/local/bin (or another binary path)
- create directory (I have some special versions of tvheadend and config directories in /root).
- disable autorun tvheadend (over web administration of MOI)
- create script for autorun, or You can start Your version manually (tvh-unicable -C -c /root/tvhroot-uni)...

I haven't unicable setup, so I can't more help You, or test working state of unicable in tvheadend.

Bundle type have webui (pictures, scripts, etc) compiled into binary.
That's needed, cause another versions have another structure of webui. You also need awesome directory for config files, as I wrote before.


In file "configure"

#
# Options
#

OPTIONS=(
"cwc:yes"
"v4l:yes"
"linuxdvb:yes"
"dvbscan:yes"
"timeshift:yes"
"trace:yes"
"imagecache:auto"
"avahi:auto"
"zlib:auto"
"libav:auto"
"inotify:auto"
"bundle:no"
"dvbcsa:no"
"epoll:yes"
"kqueue:no"
)

default value for bundle is no. Change it to yes. Thats all.

Ok, I have the box now here, so I can test and play with it.
But I think I need more help with it :/

I load the unicable tvheadend version via ftp to the MOI box, then I change the configue file to bundle-yes, thats no problem and I understand it. But I can not start the configure file or can do"make".
If I do "make" I get the message, that the config.mk is not there...Is it right that the configure file create the config.mk?
If I try to start the configure file I get the followed message
Code: Select All Code
# ./configure
sh: ./configure: not found

or
Code: Select All Code
# sh configure
configure: line 18: syntax error: unexpected "("


Sorry for all that question, but need the unicable stuff :(
