Black Hole Vu+ Uno 1.6.7 Kernel 3.1.1 BETA


THIS IMAGE HAS BEEN COMPILED WITH THE NEWEST LINUX KERNEL AVAILABLE FOR OUR BOXES.

WARNING: THIS IMAGE USES A NEW FILESYSTEM AND IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MULTIBOOT OR WITH OLD PERSONAL BACKUP.
THIS IMAGE HAS TO BE INSTALLED IN THE FLASH.

WARNING: STARTING FROM THIS RELEASE, FOR BEST PERFORMANCES AND TO MAXIMIZE THE AVAILABLE FLASH SPACE THE WEB BROWSER PLUGIN
IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE IMAGES FOR SOLO DUO AND UNO. IF YOU NEED WEB BROWSER PLUGIN YOU CAN EASILY INSTALL IT BY GOING TO:
Menu -> Setup -> Software Managment ->Manage Extensions -> Network -> WebBrowser

THE MOST COMMONLY USED USB TUNER DRIVERS ARE NOW INCLUDED IN THIS IMAGE AND ARE AUTO_DETECTED.(hauppauge win nova, aver volar, aver a867 ecc..)
THIS MEANS THAT YOU CAN BOOT THE IMAGE WITH THE USB TUNER INSIDE AND IT WILL BE IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE AND WORKING.
For this reason the Usb dtt panel has been removed, because it is no longer needed.
More drivers will be available soon.

THE WIRELESS management has been changed to use the Vuplus proprietary system plugin and Wpa supplicant have been updated
to the latest version.

The HDMI-CEC panel has been removed because Black Hole firmware has switched to native Vuplus Hdmi-Cec implementation.
So you can now find Hdmi-Cec config in the plugins list.

This image is totally new inside.
Please report your tests and opinions.

Have fun !!

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

Black Hole Vu+ Uno 1.7.0 Multiboot Full Backup





There are 2 big news items in this Black Hole release.
- Meoboot Version 1.0
- Full Backup utility
1) Meoboot version 1.0 is a NEW VERSION entirely recoded for kernel 3.1.1 images.
This version of Meoboot is 50% faster than the old version and only compatible with images that share the new kernel 3.1.1.
As you know the new kernel 3.1.1 based images have a new filesystem (Ubifs).
Meoboot can extract a Ubifs filesystem and install a full image in about 4 minutes on Vu+ boxes and is much faster than old versions at startup.
WARNING: THERE IS AN IMPORTANT CHANGE IN MEOBOOT 1.0: This version of Meoboot accepts images in USB.zip format and NOT in NFI format. This is because images in USB format are easier to find and much more readily available.
WARNING2: This version of Meoboot accepts only 3.1.1 kernel based images.
2) New Full Backup Utility.
This new Black Hole utility will complete the Black Hole tools. You can find it in the main menu. The Black Hole Full Backup will allow you to backup all your images in the original USB.zip format. This means that after you make a backup you can restore it in it's entirety, you flash your set top box with your own backup.
This new feature is based on the original script of Pedro_Newbie.

9) Usb Tuners drivers changes:

- replaced A867 driver with AF9035

About new feature Tuner Server:
This feature will allow you to share the tuners of this box with another Vu+ box, a PC, a Ps3 and/or a compatible UPnP device in your home network.
The server will build a virtual channels list in the folder /media/hdd/tuner on this box.
You can access the tuner(s) of this box from clients on your internal lan using nfs, cifs, UPnP or any other network mountpoint.
The tuner of the server (this box) has to be avaliable. This means that if you have ony one tuner in your box you can only stream the channel you are viewing (or any channel you choose if your box is in standby).
Remember to select the correct Audio track in the audio menu if there is no audio or the wrong language is streaming.
NOTE: The sever is built, based on your current ip and the current channel list of this box. If you change your ip or your channel list is updated, you will need to rebuild the server database.





After the server has been built you can access it from the Media Player of the client.
1) To connect via lan you have to mount the /media/hdd folder of this box in the client /media/hdd folder. Then you can access the tuners server channel list from the client Media player -> Harddisk -> tuner.
2) To connect via UPnP you have to start Mediatomb on this box and then start Djmount on the client. Then you can access the tuners server channel list for the client Media Player -> DLNA -> MediaTomb -> playlists.
You can access via the client Media Player, the channel list on the server:




Warning: because UPnP Mediatomb uses alot of system resources it is STRONGLY suggested you connect to the Tuner server via Lan and not via UPnP.
NOTE about UPnP: Because UPnP requires alot of memory, you should only use it if you need to access your box from a PS3 or other device that cannot be mounted via Lan. Also, After the server has been built we strongly suggest you delete the Bouquets directory that are not really needed BEFORE you start Mediatomb. This will save alot of memory and resources..
If you want to use UPnP remember that Mediatomb will take some time to import all the channels in the database. Connect to the Mediatomb webif to follow the importing progress when you start Mediatomb for the first time.
To share your Vu+ box hdd in the easiest way possible, the Black Hole mount wizard has been removed and substituted with the default network wizard and mount manager.
The Nfs Panel has also changed. Now you won't need to provide complicated Nfs settings to activate client and server on your boxes. The NFS server is now fully auto-configured and enabled by default and you can use it like cifs and samba to simply mount the device.



The Server Tuner Feature have been tested and reported working with
VU+ server -> Vu+ client on Lan
VU+ server -> Vu+ client on DLNA
VU+ server -> Ps3 client on DLNA
NOT working with TV DLNA systems
Many Thanks to Piefav for Ps3 testing

Black Hole Vu+ Uno 1.7.4 Parallel Universes


What is new?

Parallel universes system. Four dimensions available (see explanation below)
Red Panel (1 x red) : Parallel Universes Teleportation
Stream Tv Player (IPTV RTSP/RTMP protocols)
3G modem manager plugin
Wireless Access point implementation
Dvbapp updated to 6 May 2012
New BH splash logo by Army

Parallel universes graphics (mvi and spinners) by Army

About Parallel Universes feature
"The history of Black Hole 1.7.4 begins one night when I was watching a movie
documentary on Pixar.
I got the strange idea to try to reverse the traditional pattern logical:
new technical possibilities -> new implementation in the firmware.
And try to think of a new implementation from the perspective of the history of our name and image.
Look to our software as the metaphor of a small world from the angle of the black hole."
Following the logic used by meo (the visionary meo), we will introduce the new implementation
"Parallel Universes" of Black Hole 1.7.4 using two different criteria: Explanation metaphorical
and technical explanation.

1) Human metaphorical.

"Dear Black Hole users.
We started this journey together long ago in our Black Hole world
exploring together all the potential and all the possibilities that we have
to exploit.
We went deeper and deeper and now we are near the core of our small world.
And the horizon suddenly opens and multiplies and we find it hard to keep
orientation. It seems that our space and reality double's itself once and then once again.
In each space we have all our things and we discover that we can move from one space to another
making minor changes to each".
Imagine for a moment that the Black Hole firmware is our little world in which we move
and we use our things.
We install our favourite plugins, our skins, our hidden software, and we
prepare our beautiful channels list with our favourite bouquets.
Now imagine that without having to install another image, we can enter another world,
being able to restart our universe, we have the possibility of access to parallel dimensions.
Imagine 4 dimensions (or universes) and imagine we assign these names to identify:
1) Black Hole
2) Avalon
3) Chaos
4) Ghost
When we install the image we are in in the Black Hole universe, we have the default plugins,
the default skin, no strange or forbidden software and no channels list.
In addition, our world is physically limited to the size of the flash in which we reside that can
be really small in some boxes like the Vu+ solo.
Now imagine that we have the exact same things in all four dimensions at the time of
creation of our world with the only difference that the other dimensions being able to reside on a
different space (USB stick) are much larger and offer us the opportunity to take advantage of universes
of many Gigabytes. Also the other dimensions, being a projection of our starting size,
not occupy any space at all leaving the field free for our things.
Imagine you can jump easily and at will from one dimension to another without complicated
operations and in very little time.
How do we organize the worlds?
Simply based on our needs.
Imagine extending our parallel universes in an 8 Gigabyte usb stick.
We also keep in mind that if we start the box without the usb stick, the parallel dimensions on which they
reside will disappear and leave only our "Black Hole" base image.
Our universes all start from our Black Hole, but we can make small changes in each
without affecting the others.
If I am simply a user that owned a Vu+ Solo and I just want to be able to have extra space to fill my image with
many skins many plugins and add-on software, I will leave blank the base Black Hole and I will choose to
live entirely within the single "Avalon" dimension in order to have available all 8 Gigabytes of my world for
the fun to add whatever I want.
If I am a crafty user, using the box to watch TV in the evening with family (and maybe with small children)
and do not want in the channel list the bouquets for adults or in plugins like youporn and so on,
I will be able to configure the "Black Hole" universe, with the channel list and plugins without any comprimise
(no bouquets or plugins for adults) and only use this universe for the family use of the box.
At the same time I can configure the "Ghost" universe with all the bouquets and plugins (adult) that I like. I can then
move from one universe to another depending on if I am using the box alone or with my family.
If I am a paranoid user and I want to install in the box software that I do not want to be accessible to others.
I would install all my private applications in the "Ghost" universe and I will unplug my usb stick when I turn off
the box in order to eliminate any physical trace of all the files that I do not want to be accessible to anyone else.
Anyone could then power on the box, but will only find the simple base Black Hole image.
Finally, if I am an advanced user that likes to install and test all plugins conceivable and perhaps
also try to code my own applications but I use the box for the usual watching TV with the family and I don't want to
risk comprimising the basic image, I will install everything I need in the base "Black Hole" dimension for normal
household use and have fun jumping in the dimension "Chaos" where I will be able 'to install everything I want and
do all the experiments possible without risk of damaging the basic image normally used.
2) Technical explanation.
The new implementation present in the Black Hole 1.7.4 from a technical point of view exploits the ability of Linux
to merge into a single file system different directories, assigning priorities to one or other, and allowing
to modify "on fly" their attributes.
Combining all these possibilities, it is possible to use different settings and directories while remaining in one
image.
Technically inside there is not a multiple installation or duplicated .
It is only noted that the contents differ depending on whether there is moving in one branch or in another.
Combining all the changes you get the effect of having one image but with 4 "different contexts".
In each context (what we called metaphorically dimension or universe) we can install our plugins, our settings and our
software and anything else we want: In another context we can install different things.
At the beginning the contexts are all equal because they are a projection of the image just installed.
But all the changes we make in each context after installation, are individual and non of them are not reflected in the
others.
The real novelty of it all lies in the idea and approach adopted by meo, to get to this new way to exploit the
potential of our beloved boxes.
Appendix: Black Hole laws of physics.
Brief notes on the theory of parallel universes of the Black Hole.
To move smoothly between different parallel universes and understand the principles that regulate the interactions
We need to mention briefly some principles of physical laws that apply in our Black Hole.
1) Theory of the prevalence of the array.
We have seen that our universes consist of an array native (Black Hole) which resides in a space
unique and separate and three other parallel universes (Avalon Chaos and Ghost) that share the same space.
We have seen that the parallel universes are all on the same level but completely independent of one another.
Everything that happens in one of the parallel universes does not affect others and not even influence the matrix (Black Hole).
We can then say that all parallel universes work the same way but are completely independent.
However there is a fundamental difference between the original matrix (Black Hole) and the other parallel universes.
Since all parallel universes are a projection of the original matrix, what is happening in the array can
influence the parallel universes in so far as these are not yet changed.
In other words, on an equal footing the matrix reality prevails on parallel worlds.
For example: If I install the skin XX in the Black Hole Universe (original array) and I already installed skin XX
in the Unvierse Avalon, they do not interfere in any way with each other and the changes made in 1 Universe or another
are independent. But if I install the skin YY in the Black Hole (original array) and I never installed the skins YY in Avalon it
will appear automatically in Avalon.
So if something is created or added in the original array and it does not yet exist in the Parallel Universe the same thing will
be automatically exported into the Parallel Universes.
This happens because it is the initial matrix that creates the reality and projects it in all parallel universes which
follow their path and can then be modified at will.
2) Theory of the effects of Big Bang in the Black Hole.
As we have explained many times, the parallel universes of the Black Hole are "projections" of the main matrix.
In practice they are created from the array as their extensions (parallel dimensions) at the time of the Big Bang and
at a time when the whole mass of all universes implode and then re-merge.
We can therefore say that the Big Bang is composed of two stages:
-implosion: concentration of all universes in the same mass.
-explosion: expansion of mass and size projection.
From all this it follows that at the time of the Big Bang all parallel universes implode when they touch and go to merge
within the original Matrix (Black Hole). It was completely destroyed and then reabsorbed (cease to exist).
Then the moment of explosion parallel universes are recreated but are completely new, i.e Startto exist as well as projections (simple copies)
of the original matrix.So if you want to create a Black Hole Big Bang Universe, remember that you must first be on the safe Original matrix (Black Hole)
or you'll be destroyed along with parallel universes. And remember that all your data in parallel universes will also be destroyed and lost.

Black hole Vu Uno 1.7.5 "Multiple












The "codename" of Black hole 1.7.5 is Multiple because it is
Multi Boot•
Multi Universes•
Multi Partitioning usb sticks•
(Multi UPnP servers (Mediatomb and Minidlna•

: What's New
Multi Partitioning•
Parallel Universes Setup with the option to protect access with a pin code•
Enigma2 dvbapp updated to 31 May 2012•
Army default Skin updated•

You can for example create 3 partitions in your usb stick and then mount them in 3
(different mountpoints in device manager (i .e usb, universes, cf

: Note on Universes setup
By clicking ok you will now access the Universe Configuration menu
(Black hole home doesn't need a config)

: You will have 3 options
Universe access protected•
Universe access pin•
Force reboot in Black hole•

Setting the first option to Yes, will mean that the Universe will be protected with a pin
If you do not set a pin the default pin will be 0000
Setting force reboot in Black hole means the image will not boot into this Universe
useful for a pin protected universe, to be sure that nobody can access it
if you forgot to (switch to another dimension before you poweroff

Note : the Universes pin and config are reset by a big bang

Note on Multiple UPnP servers

: Black hole 1.7.5 include 2 different Dlna Servers
Mediatomb•
Minidlna•

Mediatomb allows you to stream between two different boxes
And take advantage of the BH Tuner/Server feature
but it is not compatible with many devices and the project is no longer updated

Minidlna is more upto date and compatible with many devices and most modern TV's
Use it if you want to connect from your tv or other devices to your box to share your media contents
