Hi All,

I have just reflashed my box to OpenATV 6.1 (also tired 6.2). I get to the point on openwebif terminal to input command for Infinity and everytime i have tried I get the following:

I'm using zgemma h2s and have flashed numerous times on older versions of wooshbuild. Any idea where I am going wrong? Thanks all in advance.
 
It has already installed once which is why you can't do it again.

Your box should have restarted and you should see the WooshBuild Infinity logo behind the Video Wizard on your TV screen.

If not, type:

opkg install --force-reinstall http://wbuildx.co.uk/setup.ipk

Don't miss anything out lol.

Thanks again Woosh, I have reverted back to WB7 for now as I can run the risk of her missing Love Island lol. I'll give this another go tomorrow from fresh, with a clear head myself. Thanks for the great support as always!!

Please have a look at post #703 which gives the command you should be typing.

The screen shots in the instructions show where terminal is in webif. What box are using please? A screen shot would be handy if post #703 doesn't help.
 
Hi all,
the last few days my epg list is not fully loading, some channels have the epg and others haven't.
i deleted the epg and reloaded 'scan' new epg but it was still the same.
searched on here and found that the epg location is set to the usb drive.
mine is set on the internal flash. i have tried to change the location to usb drive but noting happens, stuck on the internal drive.
any advice how to fix this
thanks
 
When you are changing the storage location of the EPG (menu -> Setup -> EPG -> Settings -> EPG Location - press the right button
Are you giving it time to change? It can sometimes take a few seconds to change.

Another thing to check is that your USB device is mounted.
Blue button -> Yellow button - it is always best to have your usb device mounted as HDD.

Thank you for the reply,
yes i have done both things what you say and the usb drive is mounted as HDD

This is a new one on me and running out of ideas.

Try a spare USB stick just out of interest. Shutdown the box (deep standby), swap the USB with a spare one and turn the box back on. Check the mount is HDD and then try / change the EPG location.

If running timeshift, don't be surprised if you get error messages about timeshift while you have the spare USB plugged in. Unless it is already initialised, but for this test it doesn't need to be.

tried another usb stick, didn't even have to change it over in settings 'epg location' was already set as usb drive and worked fine.
reckon it must be usb cable 'faulty' from my hard disk-drive into the usb input on box?
 
If you can afford to initialise the hdd this may sort it for you but you will of course lose everything on your hdd.

The other option is you have both HDD and USB plugged in and have the EPG going to USB. Not ideal but might work for you until you get sorted. Or depending on box a microSD card for the EPG.
 
Just thought I'd help out existing Wooshbuild users who may have got stuck at step 1 of the install guide if you've "religiously" followed the WB Infinity install guide.

I've previously been running Wooshbuild 7 fine with a static IP address rather than DHCP (makes it easier to ssh in or use Webif) and thought I'd flash WB Infinity. I flashed OpenATV fine and it booted into step 1's video wizard screen. I had to network scan using an Android app ("Network scanner") to find the DHCP-based IP address it had been assigned . I'd noted the MAC address prior to the flash so I could match it up and I did indeed find the IP it had been assigned (it pinged fine). BTW, the weird "box model" links can't ever work in the install guide (e.g. http://zgemmah52s/ for my model) because I don't have zgemmah52s in my hosts file or DNS on my PC - do they work for other users (I'm on a Linux desktop)? The install guide might need some changes so people are told how to discover the new IP the box has been allocated.

Anyway, despite the new IP pinging, the box doesn't seem to be running Webif or an ssh server at this point, so I can't get onto it :-( An nmap scan shows just these ports open:

PORT STATE SERVICE
1141/tcp open mxomss
3000/tcp open ppp
3001/tcp open nessus
9998/tcp open distinct32

The first time I did this, I gave up and re-flashed WB 7, but this time I was more determined. I'd already backed up my timers and settings using WB Config in WB 7, so I simply went a bit further in the video wizard. I selected "HDMI" and then selected auto negotiation and picked 1080p and 50Hz. I then restored my settings but did *not* restore the plugins. A reboot and - bang - my original static IP was back and, more importantly, the ssh server and Webif were both working fine, allowing me to finish the WB Infinity install. Hence, I think the install guide is incorrect - you need to go a bit further in the step 1 wizard to be able to login as root and run the opkg command.

works fine for every one else or we wouldn't have it on our boxes

been trying to initialize the hdd, but says cant unmount busy.
manage to unmount drive after finding this Setup, Recording & Timeshift, Timeshift Settings, Now change the value for "Automatically start timeshift after" to Disabled
after initialise the hdd
unfortunately didn't work epg settings not changing

Firstly, thanks for all the work on wooshbuild!

I have two zgemma H2s boxes, both were running WB7 fine, with both a cline and iptv script. I upgraded one box to infinity a few days ago and found that each time i upgrade plugins via the blue button and reboot, almost all my bouquets are gone, so i need to go to ABM in the menu and rescan and then reinstall my iptv script via terminal. i did have ABE2 but deleted that and still having this problem. Any ideas what it may be? I typically upgrade plugins every day there are updates. It even did this when just updating the IPTV plugin. WB7 was working fine for me so I've kept that as is on the other box. Same script/plugins - when I got the second box I copied the settings from my flashdrive and just renamed the box on the network.

Thanks for any help!

To be honest, although I appreciate the time taken on your post, I would say the issue lies at your end. Every box I have come across in the zgemma range is already running webif, telnet, ftp and samba which is why the instructions are written as they are. 19 out of 20 default network setups will open webif in the browser when using the http://boxname links provided without the need to find the ip address of the box. Noting mac addresses of boxes and port numbers is pure overkill.

As @gray1313 said, it must work as instructed or users would be running it. With over 2000 installs with only a few users with issues I would tend to look at your network as if you need to have a static ip address because the device name doesn't work indicates an issue. I have never set a static IP on my network and have always used the box name.

All of these boxes can be reached via the network using DNS and also in my browser.
