Overview

The Flubber suite includes the following components:

* 2.6.9 kernel
* 2.6.9-dream-s8 kernel for the 7020
* 1.09 enigma (28-07-2006)
* 1.1.0 Head.ko
* Front Processor version 1.06 for DM7000
* Front Processor version 1.01 for DM7020
* Squashfs 2.2-r2 with LZMA-compression for the dm5xx(x) and dm7000 boxes
* Tuxtxt v1.98
* Web Interface: 5.9.7-Expert - PLi edition


New in Flubber

* MultiEPG has been updated to show a Picture in Graphic (PiG). This works for the dm7000 and dm7020 boxes. Unfortunately, due to hardware limitations, the dm5xx(x) boxes do not support PIG. Instead a placeholder will be shown instead. Flubber includes a special fix to also make this work for NTSC systems. The event genre is now also shown in the event description window (when available). Now in Flubber you can even use '<' and '>' to quickly jump backward / forward in time.
* Flubber supports reading 32-bit (!) png images as skin images and writing 32-bit osdshots. The Enigma internal picture viewer now works in 32-bit colormode for dm7000 and dm7020, and 8-bit mode for dm5xx(x), which now at least allows to show images on dm5xx(x). Scaling, resizing, and pan images has also been implemented. See the technotes pages.
* The Skin/OSD on dm7000 and dm7020 still defaults to 8-bit colormode, but a 32-bit version of the default skin (MediaPLi) is available, to enjoy the pleasure of a full 32-bit OSD. The reason for not setting the default to 32-bit, is that several boxes show occasional green glitches in the mpeg stream, while they are in 32-bit mode. As it seems due to hardware/driver limits. We suggest you try for yourself how your 70x0 box works with 32-bit, so it is up to you to use either the 8-bit or 32-bit version of our revolutionary MediaPLi skin. Note that we have hugely improved the 8-bit possibilities for skins, by parsing palette colors from the skin images. So owners of 8-bit boxes are certainly not left behind.

See the skin technotes for more details.
* As of this version you can choose where EPG data will be stored. Until now, this data was always stored in memory. When large amounts of EPG data were read, performance of the box degraded, due to lack of free memory. Within Flubber you can choose between two storage locations:

o EPG Memory store: The conventional way of epg data storage. This is the default.
o EPG SQLite store: Data is stored in a SQLite database, which resides in a file.

The EPG SQLite store supports storing over a network! (e.g. via CIFS). See the EPG store technotes for more details.
* Skin:


o for skindevelopers: introduction of the 'c' specification for centered positioning. This makes it easier to develop TV-system independent skins. The 'c' takes the center postion of the parent (client)rectangle. Use it in the same way as the 'e' specification. To center a widget of 500 by 300 pixels position="c-250:c-150" size="500:300". See the skin technotes for more details.
o Now support gauges for progress bars. Both gauges and progress bars do support images, again, the MediaPLi skin demonstrates what is currently possible with your new Flubber image.

* See the skin technotes for more details. Commercial skip: use the '<' and '>' (next to '0' key) to quickly skip 15 seconds back or 60 seconds forward in the recording you are currently playing
* Mount manager now supports hostnames as well as ip-addresses
* Added possibility to move /var to CF card
* Added var_flash dir, this dir is allways mounted to the flash dir so can be used for copying the animations
* Proper support for NTSC in OSD. The default MediaPLi skin is properly set so all OSD screens do fit for both PAL and NTSC. Furthermore, all built-in enigma windows are centered, on PAL as well as NTSC. (note that when a widget is defined with a height > 480 there is nothing we can do for NTSC)
* Reintroduced asking for TV system: Now users again can select their TV-system (PAL/NTSC) after flashing, making it easier to properly configure PLi in the setup wizard.
* Added the genoSUAVE North American satellites lists (DishPro / Legacy)
* And we have done even more for our N.A. users: with Flubber, PLi now fully supports the USA DishNetwork EPG. Dish EPG is fully integrated into PLi's enigma, so all currently available EPG viewers will automatically be able to use it. (thx to the Nitro team for the Dish decryption routines)
* The used satellites.xml is now dependent on the timezone which is selected at first startup. After selecting a timezone the satellites.xml used in that area will be copied to /var/etc. For now only Europe and North America are available
* On zap an optional minizap OSD is shown. This OSD will go away after a timeout. When 'OK' is pressed, the minizap will expand to the full infobar. This is nicely demonstrated in the default MediaPLi skin.
* Removed camx/serverng softcam/cardserver and added CCcam v1.2.1 as default in the dm5xx(x) boxes. CCcam is in "ROM" now (and not removable).
* The minimal dm5xx(x) VAR-size is now 27%! Achieved by moving CCcam to "ROM"
* PPanel:

* - download fix, now via eHTTP
* - downloads can be aborted now
* - installed packages are marked in the download menu
* - software management is refreshed after download of a new menu
* - added support for mp3, streaming mp3, video files and text files
* - added download indicatorbar
* - remove manual install files (*.tar.gz) in /tmp after manual install to free memory

* WebIf: added Enhanced SatFinder (Zoom)
* Last Scanned userbouquet feature. During scanning an userbouquet "Last Scanned" will be made for the TV,Radio and Data services. This bouquet will show all found services.
* Start your plugins via the help-button on your remote. Edit the registry: "s:/ezap/plikeyfunction=plugin#pluginname.cfg" to start your defined plugin, or "s:/ezap/plikeyfunction=plugins" to create the same function as your yellow button.
* Bouquette down key brings you to the bouquet list instead of poviderlist
* Bouquet up/down in MultiEPG opens the service selector in bouquet mode
* Outside MultiEPG, the bouquet down key now also activates to the bouquet list instead of povider list, so you can conveniently open the service selector and scroll to the desired bouquet, with either up or down
* Added Rebuild Movielist (Dream - File Mode - Playlist [yellow button] - Dream - Rebuild Movielist)
* Fixed an off by one minute in the remaining event duration, in OSD now/next
* Cron job is fixed for dm5xx(x) boxes
* Introduced help texts for virtually all enigma windows (activated using the 'help' key on your remote)
* DM7020 help texts translated into English (used to be German)
* Removed smb-client and Samba-server from the dm7000 image, moved to downloads in the software manager
* Frysk language update

PLi® Garnet

2.6.9 kernel
2.6.9-dream-s8 kernel for the DM7020
Enigma CVS 19-12-2006
1.1.0 Head.ko
Front Processor version 1.06 for DM7000
Front Processor version 1.01 for DM7020
Squashfs 2.2-r2 with LZMA-compression for the DM5xx(x) and DM70x0 boxes
Tuxtxt v1.99
Web Interface: 5.9.7-Expert - PLi edition

Flashing general:
- When you press the Arrow UP during booting, a FlashErase will follow, as everybody knows from the DM7000.
When you install a newer image, the backup function is still executed.
Do only a flasherase without backup when you request it explicitly!
=== IMPORTANT Flashing DM500 Howto ===
When you upgrade from a DM500 MaxVAR image (modified partition layout) to a PLi Garnet DM500 (standard partition layout)
You NEED to flash your box with a serial cable to do the upgrade
Flashing with root.cramfs or with FlashWizard will fail!
The reason is the smaller filesize of the MaxVar root partition:
o DreamBOX jffs2 on a DM500 MaxVAR: 0x00600000-0x007c0000
o DreamBOX jffs2 on a DM500 Standard: 0x00500000-0x007c0000

A MaxVAR image uses a smaller root partition then a standard image, that's why /VAR is bigger. So if you want to flash a standard image into the running MaxVAR image it won't fit in the smaller partition! To get rid of this MaxVAR sized partition you need to flash it with a serial (RS-232) cable.

TV-System Wizard:
- Replaced by A/V System Settings screen
o This allows setup of your tv-system AND colorformat etc... right after Flashing
o Allow TuxTXT/MultiEPG position setting from wizard. When switching between PAL/NTCS, default position settings are stored
- Show position and size in TuxTXT/MultiEPG position screen

Enigma:
- Better volume scaling
- MP3/Ogg/Flac added:
o Fix playing VBR MP3 files!
o Support Ogg/Vorbis files
o Support FLAC files
- OSD MP3/Ogg/Flac info:
o Show vorbiscomments and id3 tags in OSD using 3 lines of the OSD fileInfoBar
o Show mp3 version+mono/stereo, samplefrequency, bitrate info using the vidformat, fq_val and sr_val skin variables
- Updated to latest libmad and libid3tag
- Event info from http streams is shown in OSD fileInfoBar
- Allow skip forward/backward
- Support 12-hour clock mode
- Improved error checking and reporting for harddisk setup
- Cleanup/Revised cardinfo script. It now also works for CCcam 1.3
- Nicer work environment in Telnet sessions: color prompt and a few usefull alias commands

- Upgrade IPtables to version 1.3.5
- IPtables TCP module added
- Confirmation added for "Rebuild movie list"
- Nano Editor added to DM7000 image
- In FileMode Left/Right will zap back/forward to the markers in your recordings
- Last Scanned userbouquet is now really last scanned, it will be erased as soon as you find a new service
- Allow jumping to begin characters of service names, when adding services to a bouquet, or while being in bouquet editmode
- From TransponderEdit screen allow direct jump to Manual Scan screen (usefull for Feedhunters)
- Make clear 0000 is not a valid pin for Parental Lock of setup lock. Only a textual change will do!
- North America AC3 pid fix, THX to DSM
- Make stereo the default audio mode
- Only show the LCD Shot feature only on hardware with a LCD
- Translated a large part of Enigma texts to Dutch and Frysk (except for the Dream HELP-menu)
- Many internal changes and fixes

DM500/56x0:
- CCcam updated to v1.3.1
- A bootlogo for the DM500
- The "Blue button" adds a switch event, when you are in one of the EPG viewers (just like in DM70x0)
- Fixed the missing 'Record DVR' in DM500, "green button" from a EPG viewer now creates a DVR timer event, instead of a switch
- Fix for MultiView EPG (MV) so that it doesn't crash Enigma

Mounting:
- Fix CIFS mounts in PLi SetupNetwork, called from rcS
- Support hostname resolving in busybox for CIFS/SMBFS mounts

o "This directory is suitable for storage"
o "This directory has not enough space" (you will need 20MB for SQLite, 50MB for MemStore)
o "This directory does not exist"

Note:
o Reboot your box before enabling SQL-lite
o The Enigma EPG storage directory is only used when rebooting or shutting down your box, this EPG data will be read after starting up your box again
- Update MV: changes of v3.5.1b -> v3.5.2 merged into our sources
- Dish Now/Next fixed in the skin
- Several Dish EEPG fixes

MultiEPG:
- Timebar is now aligned on 30 minute intervals

- Improved helpwindow scrolling
- Made alpha setting in 32-bit more more granular
- PLicons in skin using skin variable 'plicon' added.
o Use it as <eLabel position ="0:34" name="plicon"/>
o Borrowed icon images and /var/tuxbox/config/mv/icons.esml from MV!
o Note: using plicons is NOT a must for skin developpers...

- Timer list: Repeating timer weekdays: show alternating * for non-programmed days
- Increase alpha range in 32-bit mode a bit
- Updates to default.esml to adapt to 12-hour clock
- Only show motor settings when motor is enabled in Satellite Configuration

Picviewer:
- Scale down JPEG images to max twice screen resolution when loading the image.
o This should solve Enigma crashes when viewing large JPEG images!
o People should not try to view such large images in other formats...
- Moved scale/noscale function from 'ok' button to 'help' button. Leaving it on 'OK' seems to unscale images directly...

Web Interface:

- Fix FTP server problem when downloading from CIFS mounted shares

Softcams:
- Bugfix for stopping Newcamd

Via the value "X" the time can be shown in several ways depending your 24hour or USA (AM/PM) timesetting.

X in the OUS way:
0: Mo, 24 Jan
1: Monday, 24 January
2: Monday 24-01
3: Monday 24.01
4: 24-01
5: 24.01

X in the USA way:
0: Mo, Jan 24
1: Monday, January 24
2: Monday 01-24
3: Monday 01.24
4: 01-24
5: 01.24

X + 8 will show you the year extra, example:
9 OUS: Monday, 24 January 08

X + 16 will show you the full year extra, example:
17 OUS: Monday, 24 January 2008


SQLite:
- Updated to version 3.5.2


DBEPG plugin:
- Channels.dat updated
