How to Backup Tuner Configuration?

Re: How to Backup Tuner Configuration?

No matter the enigma2 image you are using, the tuner configuration is stored in file "/etc/enigma2/settings".
All relevant entries are named config.Nims.*

Which file is responsible for tuner configuration?

hi,

( as in my venerable dm500 e1 ...)

it's a simple question with such a delicate answer as the distribution of relevant directories:

# --- tuner
/var/tuxbox
/var/tuxbox/mv
/var/tuxbox/config
/var/tuxbox/config/mv
/var/tuxbox/config/mv/icons
/var/tuxbox/config/gSUB
/var/tuxbox/config/Cccamplug
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma/boot
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma/cable
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma/fonts
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma/skins
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma/pictures
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma/resources
/var/tuxbox/config/enigma/terrestrial
/var/tuxbox/config/tuxtxt
/var/tuxbox/plugins


# --- user's:addon.bin + config
/var/bin
/var/bin/etc
/var/etc
/var/script

Not sure mate. But the backup should be stored on your hdd or usb stick.
Try using the built in backup in the image menu.

Hi bokkie

So far, I have tried blackhole, vti and openpli 3 and 4.

I tried to reload my backup again and agian with all the above images but only my bouquets are appearing.
I make the backup with VuCC and I noticed that the files copied to my pc are from the enigma2 folder, the setellite.xml from the folder tuxbox and some cfg files from etc and var/keys.

Which file is responsible for tuner configuration?

Re: How to Backup Tuner Configuration?

What image are you using? Everytime I flash my solo2 i simply reinstall settings from my backups, which includes the tuner configuration, bouquets, plugins, etc. This works with blackhole and my preferred image, Vix.

hi kalpikos,

well, i tell you my solution, wichi suit pretty well with my venerable dm500

as the full os (
- linux ( native bin, config, ...)
- tuxbox ( service.xml, bouquet, ...)
- var/bin, /var/etc, ...
- www
- and all the remainings

is rather small (5Mb),

i decided to proceed a full comprehensive backup,
and i relinquished the idea of beeing fine at artistic incremental backups

this is direct, fast, short, easy, routine, and secure

how to do this:

- ftp client
- integrated rsync from totalcommander or krusader

i personnaly avoid tar.gz, just by personnal convenience, but should also be mentionned.

--
ps: pay attention not to backup

- internal mounted hd ( /mnt/myhd , /var/mnt/myhd )
- external mounted hd (/var/mnt/myexthd ) ( samba or nfs )

Hello forum

I have many lnbs on my satellite project and the tuner configuration is a very hard job for me each time I flash my receiver. I have to spent about 30 min in order to setup 16 lnbs.

I use the advanced mode on my vu+solo2 due to multi lnbs and every time I setup the satellites manually, because VuCC or DCC can't do it right.

I tried many times to make a backup of my settings and then to reload it but without any success.

I use Vhannibal settings which I can load then successfully on my receiver but the tuner configuration settings remain black.

How can I make a backup from these settings?
Which file contains the tuner configuration settings?
