Settings File

  • I'm just using the Freesat EPG to download TV and radio channels, which works fine. I've put my GigaBlue UHD Quad 4K on a plugin diet and removed EPGImport and OpenTV plugins. I see in the settings file that there are a number of entries reflecting the deleted plugins:


    config.plugins.autotimer.show_help=False

    config.plugins.epgimport.longDescDays=7

    config.plugins.epgimport.showinextensions=False

    config.plugins.epgimport.wakeup=17:50

    config.plugins.epgsearch.history=['Shakespeare & Hathaway - Private Investigators', 'Secrets of Supermarket Buyers', "The Apprentice: You're Hired!"]

    config.plugins.epgsearch.history_length=10

    config.plugins.epgsearch.numorbpos=0

    config.plugins.extra_epgimport.last_import=Thu Apr 17 14:46:33 2025, 47747

    config.plugins.filebrowser.path_left=/media/hdd/

    config.plugins.filebrowser.path_right=/hdd/

    config.plugins.opentvzapper.nextscheduletime=1745167800

    config.plugins.opentvzapper.notifications=True

    config.plugins.opentvzapper.scheduleshutdown=False

    config.plugins.opentvzapper.scheduletime=17:50

    config.plugins.opentvzapper.update_interval=3


    So I have a few Qs:

    1. Will the box automatically rebuild the settings file and not include the now redundant epgimport and opentvzapper lines?

    2. Or shall I delete the lines manually?

    3. Or shall I delete the complete settings file and let the box rebuild a new settings file at shut down?

    from telnet too


    command


  • Sorry. Straight over my head!! But is that just add the slashes etc to the existing lines??

    But I'm happy with the autotimer plugin line.

    no you copy contents and telnet into box and paste contents


    if you want to manually edit settings file then you still need to telnet into box and init 4 to stop enigma2

    then edit settings file and save then init 3 to restart enigma2


    you need to edit settings file because entries are not removed when you remove plugins.

    you took care of those configurations I gave you the solution.

    just mention what you want to eliminate, remove from the commands what is not needed. However if you use autotimer the config recreates its line.

  • OK. Unix is all pretty foreign to me.


    So, I connected to box with OpenWebif. Opened Terminal and connected to box with login and password.

    I then pasted those lines into Terminal and hit enter.

    Was that correct? Except I've probably mucked up the autotimer line - but hopefully that will recompile.

    Filezilla let me copy the enigma2 files before to my PC HDD but won't now.
