Continuous zapping through channels

Re: Continuous zapping through channels

-Would you please tell me how to make a script to stop the running one?

Suppose your looping script is named "my_looping_script.sh".
Just write a simple script like this:

#!/bin/sh
killall -9 my_looping_script.sh
exit 0

Execute it and your looping script will be killed.
Bye !

Thanks Gianni and aplok for the help

In the meantime, I wrote a C# program for continuous zapping.
You enter the delay in seconds, and ip. Then select up/down zapping.
This is for Enigma2 only.

Thanks
I still can't run the script though.
I get a message: \usr...\scriptname.sh not found.
Execution finished

Here is the script:

#!/bin/sh

while [ 1 ]
do
wget -q [url]http://192.168.0..../web/remotecontrol?command=106[/url]
sleep 5
done

exit 0

\usr...\scriptname.sh

or

/usr.../scriptname.sh

\usr...\scriptname.sh

or

/usr.../scriptname.sh

Yes, you're right.
The ScriptExecuter plugin gives this error:
/usr.../scriptname.sh not found.
The script is there and the permission is set, but it doesn't work.

Is the script a unix file ? (simple line feed as line break)
Did you use a good editor to write it it ? (not notepad !)
In doubt, launch it manually end report if it works.
If it works, it's a plugin configuration error.

Re: Continuous zapping through channels

try on a test script like:

echo 'ls /tmp >/tmp/a.txt; cat /tmp/a.txt' > /var/tmp/aa.sh

chmod 777 /var/tmp/aa.sh

source /var/tmp/aa.sh

Thanks.
This was the problem. I opened the file with Editpad and converted it to Unix and now it starts.

When I launch it manually, it works properly.

But from script executer, it only gives the result without changing channel:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<e2remotecontrol>
<e2result>True</e2result>
<e2resulttext>RC command '106' has been issued</e2resulttext>
</e2remotecontrol>

I couldn't even stop the display of the results without stopping the script.

Re: Continuous zapping through channels

... file ... converted it to Unix

for this, you can try this:

dos2unix aa.txt
