How To AzBox HD

AZBox > WiFi > Router > Wifi > PC
testat si merge super OK

>>trimitere de flux video(canale TV) in internet prin VLC Player
ex: trimiterea unui meci,film... catre prieteni,....direct din AZBox
setari AZBox HD:

• ip:192.168.X.X(adresa IP a computerului client)
• port: 9000
• timp: nedefinit

setari PC(VLC client-server)
Difuzare ca flux(Crtl+S):
SURSA:
Retea/Protocol UDP, port 9000; (ex: udp://@:9000)
click "Flux",
destinatii:
HTTP; "adauga"
"Adresa":acelasi IP setat in AzBox:192.168.X.X:8080(adresa IP a computerului client), se activeaza transcodarea dupa caz, se activeaza "Afiseaza local" daca se doreste vizionarea si pe propriul PC.

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=800,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100,scodec=dvbs}:std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.X.X:8080}  :sout-all :sout-keep

se deschide(port forwarding) poarta "8080" in router pe adresa :192.168.X.X(adresa IP a computerului client)
pentru IP dinamic se creeaza host dyndns
sesiunea se deschide cu VLC, (Crtl+N) protocol HTTP/your IP ori host dyndns port 8080

 ex:http://XX.XX.XXX.XX:8080***   http://dyndns_host:8080

-testat OK pe client la 2500km in mod WiFi.

Se pare ca merg "intrate" si hdd-uri mai mari de 1TB in AZBox.
pentru asta se creeaza 2 partitii active cu Acronis Disk Director Suite.
Pentru ca AZbox sa poata monta si a doua partitie se modifica fisierul:
DISK1/hdd_tools/check_hdb.sh, cu introducerea liniei: /bin/mount /dev/hdb2 /DATA/hdb2 dupa linia similara /bin/mount /dev/hdb1 /DATA/hdb1.
Pentru a modifica acest fisier se trece fisierul de la mod ro la rw
in telnet: mount-o remount,rw /dev/mtdblock5 /DISK1, dupa modificare se revine la modul ro: mount-o remount,ro /dev/mtdblock5 /DISK1
Reboot system

P.S. Am incercat trecerea HDD-ului pe UDMA6 cat duce hardul, dar se pare ca Azbox cunoaste maxim UDMA2.

Si, tot referitor la discul intern din AZBox:
Formatarile reusite, facute "pe vremuri", in FW gen 0.9.1xxx pana pe la sfarsiturile celor gen 0.9.3xxx si inceputurile 0.9.4xxx, din interfata Settings>Storage, nu din consola, erau facute default in ext2.
Dupa cum bine stiti sau tocmai aflati acum, ext2 sufera cam de aceleasi probleme cu FAT32 - pierderea consistentei filesystemului/fisierelor in caz de oprire intempestiva a sistemului.
Daca mai tineti minte, am avut zeci de probleme pe azboxul meu - la redarea mkv si avi: blocari, sacadari, freeze. Dupa diverse sapaturi am descoperit ca e2fsck este oarecum nefunctional in imaginile FW mai noi. Revenind la 0.9.3886 am putut folosi e2fsck pe /dev/hdb fara sa se mai blocheze in timpul scanarii, iar acum azboxul poate sa redea orice media fara probleme si blocari si fara sacadari, chiar si in fraierul de fw 0.9.4785.
Asadar, solutii:
1. in consola azbox, hdd-ul in azbox: e2fsck -vf /dev/hdb1 sau e2fsck -vfp /dev/hdb1
2. in consola PC-ului cu OS linux-based, hdd-ul transplantat in pc, pentru a beneficia de viteze mai mari de scanare si pentru a nu mai face downgrade de fw: cam aceleasi comenzi, modificand hdX corespunzator locatiei in care a montat OS-ul discul, in PC e2fsck -vf /dev/hdXy sau e2fsck -vfp /dev/hdXy
3. formatarea discului in ext3, care nu sufera de "pierderi de memorie", dar care are viteze de transfer ceva mai mici decat ext2; de efectuat cu mkfs.ext3 in consola azbox-ului/pc-ului sau cu diverse utilitare gui, in pc, de ex. Acronis, cum zicea @qwess. Solutia implica backupul datelor de pe respectivul disc

De mentionat: in AZBbox, /dev/hda este discul/memoria DOM, cu partitiile hda1, hda2, hda3 , hda4. hda este initializat si folosit de catre AZBox in udma5. Ramane inca un mister motivul pentru care nu foloseste si hdd-ul intern in udma5/6/7 - probabil ca e o limitare a driverelor/kernelului care survine in cazul interfetei S-ATA. Poate se va remedia cu mult-promisul API cel nou de la SIGMA.

Pentru cei care nu urmaresc http://forum.azbox.com , un mic tutorial "oficial" despre curatarea completa a azboxului:



Complete clean-up of Azbox firmware, settings and plugins
« on: June 08, 2010, 07:16:41 PM »
Hello,

This procedure will allow you to completely clean your Azbox HD. All configuration, plugins and firmware will be lost.
So use it with caution and follow it carefully.

When do you need to use this procedure?

- If you feel that your Azbox no longer works properly and behave totally at random.
- Problems with plugins that can no longer read your card
- If you have a bug that nobody else experience or can reproduce

Pre-requisite:

DO NOT SKIP THIS PART.

- Download the latest firmware with Firefox from http://fw.azupd.com
- Check the MD5 signature
- Rename the file to patch.bin and nothing else (so azbox-0.9.4890-patch.bin is not a valid name it should be renamed to patch.bin, so suppress "azbox-0.9.4890-").
- Format an USB key to FAT file system
- Copy the file patch.bin to the newly formatted USB key
- Power off your Azbox
- Connect the USB key
- Restart your Azbox
- In the upgrade screen select 1 - upgrade USB (the firmware you copy on the USB should be detected and installed).
- This process should end normally during the countdown remove the USB key.
- You Azbox will restart with the firmware you select.

Clean-up
- Please DO NOT SKIP PRE-REQUISITE!!!

- Enable Telnet server on your Azbox (11. Setup - Network Services - Telnet server : Enabled).
- Connect to your Azbox IP address with a telnet client
- Type the following command.

mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /MMP
rm -rf /PLUGINS
rm -rf /DISK2
rm -rf /MMP
sync

You will probably read some error messages, don't care about this.

- Power off your Azbox (switch off) (if you press the power key on the RCU the end menu will no longer appears since we just delete it).
- Put the USB key that we prepare in pre-requisite in the Azbox USB slot.
- Power on your Azbox

On the upgrade screen select:
4 - Format application Area
Followed by:
1 - upgrade USB

Let the upgrade process run (DO NOT POWER OFF your Azbox during this process) and wait for the final countdown and remove the USB key.
If you miss the final countdown at the Azbox reboot select 5 - Continue without upgrade.

Your Azbox is now brand new with a fresh firmware without any old stuff on it.
Then you will need to reconfigure all your Azbox like you first power it up.

Cum să adăugam meniul in limba romană in azbox hd
trecem hda1/MMP in modul citire/scriere(după restart va reveni in mod "ro")
in telnet:

mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /MMP

copiem dosar "Romanian" in:

/MMP/hd/System/message-td210

(in dosarul "Romanian" sunt prezente 16 fişiere text cu traducerile, pentru a modifica folosim Notepad++ şi păstrăm formatul!,
după care urcăm in azbox cu comanda de trecere in "rw")
chmod 755
inlocuim(sau modificăm) fişierul "setup_language.sh" din

/MMP/usr/bin

Ai idee de unde se poate seta limba in care se afiseaza EPG-ul? Asa cum stim cu totii, Digi si UPC transmit EPG in mai multe limbi dar, din pacate, Azbox afiseaza prima limba, in ordine alfabetica, cel putim asa am observat pana acum.
Totusi, la unele canale, de ex. History Channel HD, dupa comutarea pe acest canal, pentru cca. 1 secunda, EPG-ul este afisat in ceha, dupa care se comuta automat pe engleza. Sa aiba oare legatura cu faptul ca meniul principal al receiverului este setat pe engleza? Daca da, inseamna ca nu prea sunt sanse sa selectam limba romana, intrucat in meniul principal, lb. romana nu exista.
