    The Beryl suite consists of the following images:


    - Beryl for the DM500 (incl. Alps)
    - Beryl for the DM5620
    - Beryl Standard Edition for the DM7000 with fully updated v2.6.9 kernel and driver
    - Beryl Pino Edition for the DM7000 with a v2.6.5 kernel and matching driver for better support of USB devices like wifi and memory sticks.



    Release notes:
    ==============


    Version: "Beryl" - 20050920


    Many thanks to the PLi® Beta team for their contributions and extensive testing.



    What's new
    ----------


    - Media Highway EPG is fully integrated into Enigma. MHW EPG is read without the use of external scripts and executables. See section "Further explanation". This is ready for Canal Digitaal only.
    - DM500 version: Alps tuner is supported
    - After our close cooperation with the squashfs maintainer to solve observed multiboot installation problems, squashfs has been updated to better support embedded systems like the dreambox. PLi Amber already had these fixes but all this has lead to the release of squashfs 2.2-r2 which is of course included in Beryl.
    - Webinterface Zap -> Movies: Possibility to rename the recordings
    - Wifi support has been dropped from the Standard Edition. We regret that the support for these devices is so limited in the up to date kernel. In the Pino Edition wifi support is available.
    - A number of skins have been extended with SNR bars

    Media Highway EPG


    All images in the Beryl suite have an adapted version of Enigma that is capable of handling Media Highway EPG information. This standard of sending EPG is used by several satellite providers such as Canal Digitaal, Sky Italia, Canal+/CanalSatellite France and others. In Beryl only Canal Digitaal is supported, more providers will be supported on the next image. Until now only nownext information of these providers was available in Enigma EPG. For loading and reading schedule information it was necessary to use external programs. Even then the information was stored outside the Enigma cache.


    With Beryl the MHW information is treated exactly like normal schedule EPG information. Nothing needs to be configured, it just works. When you tune in on a transponder that sends MHW information the stream is read and stored in cache, you will not notice that the box is reading the information. In case of Canal Digitaal you need to be tuned in for about 15 seconds to receive a full set of information. There is no harm done if you zap earlier. After a successful fetch the reading attempts on that transponder will be suspended for an hour.


    The EPG data is visible in Enigma EPG and Multi EPG. If you install the MV plugin the information will also be visible there. You don't need to do any configuration in MV, it works right out of the box.


    One note: Providers do not send MHW information on every channel they broadcast. In most cases information of all provider channels is transmitted from one transponder. Normally you will zap by those transponders often enough

    Note that the German broadcasting already has an extensive EPG. This extension was specially made for the Dutch and Belgium viewers who only had the current and next program in the EPG.


    The Beryl Pino was made for anybody who had problems with USB sticks, USB hubs and USB wifi sticks (which are supported again :D)
