TNAP-7 Image Discussion

The epg list problem should be fixed with the attached EpgList.py file. You can either wait until another update is available or install the attached file directly in the receiver: /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Components. The EpgList.pyc file should be deleted as shown below, then restart enigma2.

A decent-sized update is available. It is suggested to Flash this update with a new image due to what has changed.

GCC 16.1.0 = Current GCC 16 feature release
glibc 2.44 = Very newest 2.44 generation; Upstream was targeting its release around Aug. 1
OpenSSL 4.0.1-r0 = Current 4.0 release: 4.0.1
Python 3.14.7 = New Aug. 2026 bugfix release;
Samba 4.24.5-r0 = Current stable: 4.24.5
GStreamer = 1.28.5 Current stable: 1.28.5
FFmpeg = 8.1.2-r0 Current stable: 8.1.2
Rust = 1.96.1 Not newest --current stable of Rust is 1.97.1

A full image backup as a restore point is also suggested out of an abundance of caution.

Suggestions are given. What you do or do not do is your decision.

It is good to know the large online update was a success. There are users who have been updating TNAP 7 for months without ever flashing the image. I can only wonder how their receiver is running as compared to a receiver that was updated by Image Flash.

For normal maintenance, an online update is convenient and usually OK. The recent image changes are not normal maintenance.
In some instances or situations, packages that are new may be missed by an online update. This is WHY the suggestion to flash was made. The command `opkg upgrade` primarily knows:
1. Which packages are currently installed.
2. Which newer versions are available in the feeds.
3. Which dependencies those packages require.
`opkg upgrade` does not automatically compare the receiver against the complete package manifest of the newest image. A freshly flashed image, however, is built directly from that current manifest.
Over time, continuously online upgraded systems can accumulate:
obsolete packages
unused files
old configuration(s)
remnants of previous image designs

A fresh flash removes much of that historical baggage and may provide a better user experience.
 
Signal finder (shown in previous post) with Signal Sound or Audio. I have wanted this for some time, but always failed at it. Now it works! The sound changes as the signal increases or decreases. Keep in mind this is a work in progress, but it is stable enough to use and demonstrate. The video starts by doing a quick blindscan to grab some good transponders followed by demonstrating the signal audio.

 
After installing the clean version 0808 on the MIO 4K and running various tests, the "blindscan" option disappeared.

So I tried the following:

opkg remove enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-blindscan --force-depends
opkg remove edision-blindscan-dvbs-utils-osmio4k --force-depends

opkg install edision-blindscan-dvbs-utils-osmio4k
opkg install enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-blindscan

reboot

But the item didn't show up. Do you have any other ideas besides reinstalling it ?
 
“After installing 0808 and running various tests, Blindscan disappeared” leaves out the one piece of information that matters most: What changed between the time Blindscan was visible and the time it was not? I have no clue and no answer to this question.

Then it is made worse here and turns it into a jigsaw puzzle:
opkg remove ... --force-depends
opkg remove ... --force-depends
opkg install ...
opkg install ...

Please Reflash 0808 clean, then configure the MIO4K normally, and check Blindscan before changing anything else. If it is present, the image is fine. Then make changes one at a time until you can identify exactly what causes it to disappear. Thanks.
