VU+Open PLi 4.0

Please reflash your receiver since a software update will most likely fail.

Especially on spark/spark7162.

Changes since previous release:

- Gstreamer snapshot updated to 1.7.1:

* The mp4 issue when playing from remote locations has been fixed upstream, so I've dropped the revert.

* Libsoup has been updated so I've dropped the revert for the old libsoup as well.
- DM800Se V2 and DM500HD V2 kernel config has been cleaned and more in sync with PLi's config for the other Dreambox models.

- More free space by adding a task before do_package_write_ipk which will upx compress some binaries.

* This should give us a few more MBs to work with (Dreambox *cough*).

- Major rework of the ****-fulan BSP for spark thanks to Tapaat for helping me out.

* Now using Tapaat's drivers which fixes the frambuffer (and 22khz?) issue.

* Enable of the zram module.

* Shipping his wifi drivers.

* VFD time is now synced every 5 minutes using a cron job.

* Software update and plugin-installation has been fixed.

* Using Tapaat's lirc config for spark and spark7162.
- The usual batch of dvbmediasink fixes by Christophecvr and mx3L:

* A brand new divx/xvid bitstream unpacker by mx3L should fix playback of avi files with wrong fourcc.

- Libsoup has been updated to 2.52 (from master-next).

- Refactor wifi drivers a bit on Linux 2.6.18, not auto-loading the mt7600 anymore, the correct driver should hopefully be loaded when you plugin your wifi stick.



Changes compared to openpli-oe-core gst-1:

- Ships with gstreamer upstream master git:
Using the same patches as openpli-oe-core gst-1 with only these changes:
Removed: 0001-baseparse-post-tag-list-when-avg-bitrate-changes-at-.patch
because this patch was already checked in upstream.
- Every receiver uses christophecvr's multibox dvbmediasink.

- Libsoup has been updated to 2.52 (from master-next).
- Using libtrmp and rtmpdump from oe-alliance.
- Some small enigma2 patches for Dreambox receivers (ac3/dts bypass and blanking on zap support).
These are only applied for Dreambox receivers.
- AAC to AC3 transcoding V2 by mx3L (requires a fast cpu).
- IPTV Player from samsamsam included (thx to Athoik for the recipe).
- Large list of public IPTV streams included thanks to the Japhar Team.
- Updated libcdio and cdtextinfo for audio-cd support by christophecvr.
- DM800Se, DM7020HD and DM800SeV2 driver upgraded to 20151201:
added si2166b blindscan support.
- Using aio-grab source from oe-alliance which includes fixes for spark receivers.

Known issues:

- DM800 first boot will take a while, please be patient. The next boot will be faster.
- On spark/spark7162 you need to set 'boxtype = dreambox' for oscam dvbapi.
Please use 'duckbox' instead.
- On Zgemma Star you cannot use full HD skins.
This is a hardware/driver limitation.
Please don't try it, it will crash enigma2.
- Some Dreambox remotes may behave very sensitive.
This causes button presses to register multiple times instead of just once.
As a workaround you can adjust the key interval:
Go to: Menu - System - Input devices - dreambox remote control (native).
Set "Change repeat and delay settings" to yes
Set "Interval between keys when repeating:" to 200ms or 300ms.
Press green button (OK)
Now set the same delay for: "dreambox advanced remote control (native)" as well.



TODO:

- Linux 2.6.18: Create a plugin / ppanel to select which Realtek/Ralink driver to load on startup (eg. rt3070, rt55xx, mt7600), since they cannot be loaded at the same time.

- Linux 2.6.18: Look into the v4l usb drivers.

- Add Spark specific plugins by gorski.

- Add ****-ini from OE-Alliance and shape it up for openpli-oe-core.
