A new PLi® Dreambox release will be available within a short time after we finished testing both images.
This release will contain a new Iolite DM7025 image and the brandnew Iolite DM800 image!
It will be announced in this thread when both Enigma2 images are available!
The Original PLi® 'Iolite May 2008' suite contains the following images:
PLi®-Iolite-DM7025
PLi®-Iolite-DM800
Use the download URL below to be sure to download our original PLi® images.
You can also update from the earlier Iolite editions to this Iolite '2008 May editon' using Software Update.
Warnings:
-Online software update might fail (on your dm7025) if you do not have enough free storage.
Make a backup of your settings before you attempt to update.
-Because of the new initial setup wizard, your settinglist will be cleared when you update to the latest version.
Simply restoring an old backup will not work, because that triggers the wizard to restore to the default again.
(if you want to restore an old backup manually, add 'config.misc.defaultchosen=false' to /etc/enigma2/settings to avoid the settinglist to be cleared)
Highlights:
-UPnP mediaserver / client plugins
-IDE/SCSI harddisk manager
-DVD player plugin
-complete piconsets
Details of what's added and fixed since the initial 'December 2007' and 'January 2008' PLi® Iolite release
Enigma2:
- Enigma2 repository May 3rd 2008
- PLi® repository May 3rd 2008
- 20080430 drivers for DM7025
- 20080430 drivers for DM800
- Some CryptoInfo convertor types and functionality added
- ScanSetup:
* Cable transponder 'blind'-scan: make sure we don't miss transponders when we receive incomplete lines in our dataAvail callback
* Default cable scan 'steps' instead of 'bands', 'bands' doesn't find all transponders on Dutch Cablenetwork
- Don't create a 'largefile' ext3 fs on a small (<=4GB) device, that wouldn't allow us to e.g. install a lot of picons on a relatively small CF
- Added picon install location selection screen
- Only allow to install picons on fileystems which support symlinks
- Always allow picons to be installed on HDD, with the new selection screen it's your own responsibility
- Rewrote harddisk manager, support scsi and ide devices
- Show correct harddisk capacity
- MediaPlayer:
* Support ':' in paths
* Use an absolute path when a playlist entry starts with 'http://'
- RecordTimer (and parseEvent): fallback to the extended description, when an event doesn't have a short description
- Join short/extended description, when the short description is so long that it looks like a situation where short and extended contain parts of a single full description
EPG
- Fill Now/Next with EPGcache, untill EIT arrives
- Implemented Now/Next refreshtimer, started when the EIT reader stops with an error
(EPGcache now/next will be used instead)
- Implemented context menu for eventview (open with 'menu' or 'info' key while in eventview window)
* IMDB plugin installs itself into this menu
Enigma2 Plugins:
- PPanels: avoid BSOD when 'pipe' fails (it often fails with errno 12, 'Cannot allocate memory')

- Torkoise Skin added:

- Nemesis.BlackBox skin:
