Octagon SF-4008(4K) Bugs, Issues, and Problems

[el bandido]

New SF4008 driver released today. I do not see anything listed in the release notes that fixes the 16 APSK not working in tuner A. Tuner B is the only tuner for me that works with 16 APSK. I will load this new driver and see what it does. The new driver can be uploaded here if someone wants to test it.

New Driver is already added to SatDreamGr image. (Online update shown.)

There are more than 2000 radio stations on 105West, c band. The Octagon SF4008 cannot play most of them. A test video showing this issue is in the link.

To use Kodi, a hard drive should be installed, and a swap file needs to be made A quick test by me shows a functioning Kodi 17.

Congratulations to the Octagon Team!

OpenATV is German a based image and it contains European satellites and channel bouquets in the default image. We cannot receive these satellites in North America, so all default scanned satellites and their channels/boquets should be deleted. I copied this telnet command from an unknown source some time ago. This is the best telnet command, and the best way that I have seen to clear the OpenATV images of these unusable entries.

Here is the command:
init 4 && sleep 10 && rm -rf /etc/defaultsat.tar.gz && rm -rf /etc/enigma2/lamedb* && rm -rf /etc/enigma2/*.tv && rm -rf /etc/enigma2/*.radio && rm -rf /etc/enigma2/*.del && init 3

(That is a one line command or single line entry, starting with init 4 and ending with init 3.)

Kodi now available in SatDreamGr images for SF4008.
