[App] More TV channels on E/F/H series

[wluczykijwf]

How and when start you OnlineTV on your TV?

[xmucio]

App is automatically load after every tv reboot by enabling option in Main Menu->Smart Features->Apps Settings->Auto Ticker->OnlineTV.

[wluczykijwf]

OK.

1. The PHP server to work you need to have all the time a root the TV. You probably do not have it.
2. You use this method to start OnlineTV on your TV.

[xmucio]

1. I used for rooting method from this post. I don't know if it's all the time. Every restart i need to wait about 2-3 minutes and on screen appears notice about mounted Virtual USB (samba shares), so I know that tv is on "root mode".

2. This method not work. After putting proper files to proper directories OnlineTV is not running (even log is not created). When i try to run it "manually":

Code: Select all

VDLinux#> ./99_95_OnlineTV.init  start
checking /dtv/usb/sda1
checking /dtv/usb/sdb1
checking /dtv/usb/sdc
./99_95_OnlineTV.init: line 34: samyGOso: not found

Of course samyGOso is on it's directory:

Code: Select all

VDLinux#> ls -l /mnt/opt/privateer/usr/bin/
[...]
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     0            24329 Sep 13  2013 samyGOso
[...]

I think I'll give up...

Put the script to the directory \mnt\etc\init.d and set permissions for the script via telnet, reboot TV and done.

Put the script to the directory \mnt\etc\init.d and set permissions for the script via telnet, reboot TV and done.

Exactly I`ve done it and it's not working. Others scripts for example autorun PVRtoANYdev or changing colour of subtitles to yellow after every restart is working fine so i probably done it in right way.

BTW. I think that WeebTV is a relict now I have not used it long ago. If you are looking IPTV from Poland then it is worth visiting this forum. There are many interesting provider IPTV.

I were trying to fix running OnlineTV via libRunWidget, so i started from trying to get know why "samyGOso: not found" if the file is in proper directory. I started to checking line by line code to understand what is really going on. Let's look inside 99_95_OnlineTV.init:

Code: Select all

!/bin/sh
#
# © Copyright 1996-2015, zoelechat@SamyGO
#
#
. /dtv/SGO.env
 
SODIR=$SYSROOT/opt/privateer/usr/libso			# If exist, environment LIBSO_DIR will be used instead
WIDGETID=OnlineTV

stop_bootloop()
{
	for USB in /dtv/usb/sd* ; do
		echo "checking $USB"
		[ -e $USB/STOP ] && echo "STOP found. Script exit..." && exit 1
	done
}

case $1 in 
	start)
	stop_bootloop
	[ "$LIBSO_DIR" ] && SODIR=$LIBSO_DIR
	samyGOso -A -B -l $SODIR/libRunWidget.so "ID:$WIDGETID"
	;;
	stop)
	;;
	status)
	[ -f /dtv/RunWidget.log ] && cat /dtv/RunWidget.log || echo "Not started"
	;;
	*)
	echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|status}" 1>&2
	exit 0
	;;
esac

So i saw that something must be wrong with $LIBSO_DIR. I started telnet and wrote "echo $LIBSO_DIR" and the output was "/mnt/opt/3". It was weird because i don't have directory named "3" in /mnt/opt, but only one directory named "privateer". So I checked dtv/SGO.env:

Code: Select all

SYSROOT="/mnt"
MOUNT_PATH="/dtv/usb/sdb"
export USER_FIRMWARE="MST12"
export KMOD_VER="0117"
export MOD_DIR="/mnt/lib/modules/3.0.33"
export TMPDIR="/dtv"
export HOME="/mtd_rwcommon"
export SMB_CONF_PATH="/mnt/etc/samba/smb.conf"
LOGFILE="/mnt/samygo.log"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/mnt/opt/3/lib:/mnt/opt/3/usr/lib:/mnt/lib:/mnt/usr/lib:/tmp/bin:/mtd_cmmlib/RECOGNITION_LIB:/lib:/mtd_cmmlib/lib:/mtd_cmmlib/Comp_LIB:/mtd_exe/lib:/mtd_cmmlib/YWidget_LIB:/mtd_cmmlib/InfoLink/lib/plugin/Static:/mtd_appdata/moip:/mtd_cmmlib/GAME_LIB:/mtd_appdata/gemstar:/mtd_cmmlib/DRM_LIB:/Java/lib:/mtd_cmmlib/InfoLink/lib:/mtd_appext/WidgetEngine:/mtd_appext/Webkit:/mtd_exe/WebServerApp/bin:/mtd_cmmlib/CBRE:/mtd_cmmlib/CBRE/bin/lib:/mtd_cmmlib/flashplayer/libs:/mtd_appdata/Runtime/lib/CairoShadow:/mtd_appdata/Runtime/lib:/mtd_appdata/Runtime/XorgLibs:/mtd_cmmlib/CM_LIB:/mtd_appext/OIPF/lib:/mtd_exe/OIPF/lib:/mtd_contents:/dtv"
PATH="/mnt/opt/3/sbin:/mnt/opt/3/bin:/mnt/opt/3/usr/bin:/mnt/opt/3/usr/sbin:/mnt/sbin:/mnt/bin:/mnt/usr/bin:/mnt/usr/sbin:/tmp/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/sbin:/etc/Scripts:/util:/mtd_appdata/Runtime/bin"
export ENV="/dtv/.ashrc"
export FRAMEBUFFER="/dev/sam/fb0"
export DISTROOT="/mnt/opt/3"
export LIBSO_DIR="/mnt/opt/3/usr/libso"
export TERM="linux"
export LS_OPTIONS="--color=auto"

and I noticed that something is wrong here, because in many lines there are "3" instead of "privateer". I correct every entries and override file by ftp, restart tv and check again what happens if i put "echo $LIBSO_DIR". I was surprised because, output was the same like before changing SGO.env. From now I knew that this file must be generated every time I boot TV so i was digging deeper. First I checked "run.sh" from SamyGO and i didn't noticed nothing strange, so next i checked "run1.sh" and again nothing strange. Finally i opened "rc.sysinit" from "samyext4.img":

I saw that this is the moment when variables goes to SGO.env. I was pretty sure that I'm close to find solution and i found it. In function p_from_rel_info() was written "DISTROOT="$SYSROOT/opt/$(sed q "$1" | sed 's/^\(\w*\) *.*/\1/')", which is too much complicated that it need to be. I checked "release" file, which function used for set variable:

Code: Select all

3"1Q#Îúţý)	5ýÎ[˜¶8ć›»ÎÓjď8Í

Now i know why i have "/mnt/opt/3" in $LIBSO_DIR... I decided to make thing a lot easier and i changed function to:

Code: Select all

p_from_rel_info()
{
		DISTROOT="$SYSROOT/opt/privateer"
}

I know that this piece of code could be done without function, but i don't know if there are outside references so i did it this way. After restart TV I checked PHP server and VOILA!! PHP server is working fine, so I checked WeebTV channels and there are working fine too!! I'm curious why universal way of rooting was not correct in 100% with my TV.

One more thing. Everything is working beside libRunWidget. If i tried to execute

Code: Select all

samyGOso -d -A -B -l /mnt/opt/privateer/usr/libso/libRunWidget.so ID:OnlineTV

nothing happens and after 15 seconds my TV is restarting itself, but this is not issue with OnlineTV, because the same situation when i try to run something else for example WebBrowser. Only one widget which i can run via libRunWidget is Netflix. But i'm really glad that your app is working by enabling option in Main Menu->Smart Features->Apps Settings->Auto Ticker->OnlineTV.

Thank you again for trying to help me. I really appreciate it.

@xmucio thanks you for your the report.
Sometimes the samyext4.img is damaged (e.g.: if there is a sudden power cut-off). Maybe it happened to you.
The libRunWidget app works perfectly for me . If you have a problem with the app then ask in the topic.

If you have a problem with the app then ask in the topic.

Done already but nfi (latest fw maybe?)
