Anyone help me with a image that has a working record - playback feature.

Driving me nuts trying to find one that plays back from usb stick.

All the images seem to be able to record to the usb stick without problem but not playback.

Any sugestions welcome.

:confused::confused:

Hi mods - sorry - can you move this to chat section - thanks

Hi Ferret I am having same problem especially when I play back Hd recording

Any other working image apart from pli??? If not how can I apply same patch to make any image working???????

If that is too complicated how far back to in time since enigma2 changed way of recording????

Due to the use of the modified drivers which use 'dev/misc/pvr', recordings do not playback because the newer Enigma2 wants to do playback by use of '/dev/dvb/adapterX/dvrX
My patch brings back the use of 'dev/misc/pvr' by Enigma2.

As it explain's mate its patched to playback recording so are lots of other images now, as your problem is HD playback if your using external media it could be a bandwidth problem, just a guess as you dont say what media your recording to.

Hi I am using a usb pen ........

That could be the problem that the pen drives speed can not keep up with the HD bandwith as SD recordings are fine id say that was your problem.

Here ara my findings playback of hd and sd works with pli image so it seems that is not usb pen it is the image itself.

One bad point pli image is not one of the fastest.

My 2 fav are sat4fun all new dreamelite and nemesis 2.3 093 both very good and fast .........

This is deffo due to your storage device. Dreambox needs external power suplly for external usb recording devices. get yourself an external usb hub with power supply and you will not experience any recording/playback problems.

Good luck

thanks for your tried & the result.Yes what I mean is when I switch ON the main plug > booting... > channel show up takes about 1 min 28sec.... not restart enigma2 time :) I read from 1 of the forum, there is a guy said some new image (DM800) with new driver booting time about 1 minute but he never mention which are the image.... so when I read your post I thought that's the image he mention....:)
