MV: Download / Installation
Other pages: Front Page, User Guide, FAQ
Requirements
Image
From this site, MV is currently only available for the images for
which there is a tarball listed below.
However, many dreambox images have MV in theor download menu.
This is the best method to use.
Memory
The application itself (standard version) is currently around 500K.
I have no idea of the extra memory used while running, it's dependent how many channels are in your bouquet.
If you have problems, here are some tips:
-
change the 'Pre' and 'Post'
parameters for your inputs. Smaller values will result
in lower memory usage. See the User
Guide for more information.
-
Make sure the two directories in the Input Config
are on your HDD or USB, whichever you have.
-
using the MV Lite version once you have configured
everything will save you more than 220K.
Download
Please pick a tarball based on your image.
If your image is
not listed here it will probably NOT WORK!
If your image uses it's own download system (e.g.
hydra, ruDream) I advise you to wait for it to
be updated rather than installing yourself.

Versions
The archive contains two versions with slightly different feature
sets. Both versions are installed by the install script.
| Version | Program Size | Edit Config | List Views/Favourites | Read XMLTV/EPGUI/DB Cache | Download EPG Data | Autoscan MHW |
| Lite | ~280K | | | • | • | • |
| Standard | ~500K | • | • | • | • | • |
Both versions use the same configuration file, so if you like you
can delete the standard version once you have the plugin configured
as desired.
Installation
Here are the most important files and where they can go to
get the plugin working.
- mv.so -> /var/tuxbox/plugins/extepg.so
- mv.cfg -> /var/tuxbox/plugins/extepg.cfg
- lang.txt.en|de|es -> /var/tuxbox/config/mv/lang.txt.en|de|es
- skin.esml -> /var/tuxbox/config/mv/
- mv-lite.so, mv-lite.cfg -> /var/tuxbox/plugins [if you want the LITE version]
- mhwepg -> /var/bin/ [if you want to read MHW EPG data, get it from http://www.tech-sources.com/~download/pli/mv/mhwepg]
- icons/ -> /var/tuxbox/config/mv/icons [if you want channel icons]
- icons.esml -> /var/tuxbox/config/mv/ [if you want channel icons]
- mkdir /var/lib/; ln -s /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /var/lib/libgcc_s_nof.so.1; <restart dreambox> [only if you get complaints about a lib with 'nof' in the name]
