[leerock]

not bad changelog....

did anyone test this fw?
Is the Unicode srt bug fixed?

[tx0]

no visible improvement after fw update. may be GUI is opening little bit faster.

[Enjama88]

If DTS and .srt subtiles does really work I will be really happy

what exactly does that mean? "added hardware acceleration option"

[tx0]

open Settings -> System Info -> HW Acc option -> On/Off

[FME_fta]

For me with hardware acceleration activated I loose signal on the DVB-S2 tuner, but I guess LAN speed is improved.
With hardware acceleration off the signal comes back.

The DVB-T tuner never had signal problems.

And what about epg, still crashes?

[Juka]

And what about epg, still crashes?

Yes, still crashes...

[hfmls]

.srt were allready working in latest (day 17) dunno about DTS.
gonna test this one, what does hardware aceleration does?

I can confirm this.
With Hardware Acceleration Second tuner has no signal.
channel name is back on the display.
Avi + srt is working.
Rewind still isn't working correctly.

No real improvement for me.

[dennisl]

Do you have premium+?

[hfmls]

i only have SAT tuner and i didn't have to reboot after hardware acceleration.
and i got signal.

even after i reboot, i had signal...strange.
btw: my dvdrip quality unscaled to 1080p seem to have finally stabilized?

no more pixelization or shaked image......for now!
gotta test more

They have basically overclocked the CPU so expect lots more heat

System bus frequency : 231750000 Hz
CPU frequency : 347625000 Hz
DSP frequency : 347625000 Hz


used to be 300mhz now its 350mhz nearly

boxes may go then lol

[voki081]

Hfmls
Aren't you sold your box?

[hfmls]

not yet ... unfortunately

[luky]

Overclocking? I guess HW acceleration is just euphemism
But I can see top network speed goes up from around 5,5MB/s to 6,5MB/s

[Smudger]

Before I change for my very stable running system from KGD Team.
to the new firmware,

how is zapping with cccam ?
and is the epg saved after population when going into standby.

That explains why I didn't have signal on my DVB-S2 tuner.
Looks like my tuner couldn't handle the overclocked system BUS.

This is the first sat box that I heard of as being able to overclock by software.
This is a wet dream of many PC enthusiasts

If Opensat uses a file that sets the overclock parameters in the boot process, maybe I can lower the system BUS, or overclock the CPU even more (or not if the DSP clock is the same).

OMFG. I thought they linked it to new library.. Now I see I was wrong

this overclocking is just ridiculous because it can bring down some boxes

[FME_fta]

The linux command to know the chipset (CPU+DSP) and the BUS clocks is:
cat /proc/cpuinfo

By default the system BUS is at 200Mhz.

All the clock might be linked, in overclocking the BUS it will also overclock the chipset.
Hardware acceleration overclocks everything by ~15.5%.
