Fastest way to enable live tv on lcd.

[serdeliuk]

Hello,

I found this very interesting and want to share wit you, if you have a Solo4K you can enable live tv on the front lcd by issuing the following command,

echo "enable" > /proc/stb/lcd/live_enable

And stop live tv by issuing following command,

echo "disable" > /proc/stb/lcd/live_enable

Best regards,



Marc

you can do it by remote control and LCDlinux plugin or web browser http://your_vu_ip/lcd4linux/config?Element=LCD4linux.TV : the command to be enabled is "Stutter TV"

sorry tested here on Vuduo2 I hope could be the same for Solo4k... I'm going to verify.

Hi, i have tested but it seems to not have /lcd4linux what image do you have installed? On all images i tested it is a plugin named MiniTV which enable tv on the lcd. But from the command line is pretty interesting

Also, what i found mean that the kernel itself take care to display the image on the lcd, so any other tool/software/plugin will do the same thing as what i found.

I had a look into MiniTV plugin code and i am right

......
def setMiniTV(self, value):
cur_value = open("/proc/stb/lcd/live_enable", "r").read().strip()
if cur_value != value:
open("/proc/stb/lcd/live_enable", "w").write(value)
.......
