Forget that, me being an idiot! Found and downloaded the plugin and picons installed
Press the green button twice on the remote and select picons > snp.100x60-86x46........ and install them?
this is not specific to the build so it might be an idea posting a new thread as some my have had a fix but not using Grogbuild (WHAT!! LOL) so wouldn't be reading this thread
Hi I had trouble installing infinity on h7s !! and was recommended to try the build, it did take some time for the installation but could have been to a problem with the box or me, I am really pleased with the result as it kept crashing trying to install infinity.Update 03/03/19: Removed installation option 2 so only the one set of instructions from now on.
Update 21/02/19 : installation Option 2 is likely to be removed in the next few days, please use Option 1 as this has had more tweaks in recent weeks and is the method I will be concentrating my efforts on in future.
Update 22/02/19: once installed the abm is/should be ran automatically when installing using option 1.
This is my latest version of Grogbuild which should work on any enigma2 box.
There is no need to dig out a spare USB stick to download the build to and flash from, any Enigma2 set top box t can install Grogbuild FreeRange by just copying a single command line and when you put it on your Enigma2 box you will get the most up to date plugins at the time, unlike prebuilt builds that may have had old versions installed by the time you flash.
Features :
- My 'Add a Line' plugin installed
If you use a line it can be added simply using this plugin, no need to copy files over- My 'Movie Organsisor' Plugin
used to arrange your tv recordings into folders.- My own top pic script to update top images in the menu's on the Vskin skins.
- Install with a single line of code
Once OpenATV is installed on your box just cut the piece of code we give below into the terminal on your box and sit back and watch.- Most up to date at time of flashing
As the plugins are downloaded during setup they are the most up to date versions at that time, unlike a prebuilt build which could be weeks or months old.- Update online via software update
Utalising the ATV or VIX Software Manager you can update the software as often as you like, even our own plugins if we update them.- Works with all Enigma2 set top boxes
As we do not use an image in Grogbuild FreeRange it will install in just minutes on any Engima2 set top box that has openATV installed.
We are pleased to say we are the first build installed via command line that does not require you to flash the box with openATV or openVix before installing the build, the GrogBuild Freerange Installation does it for you. Assuming that you have your USB/HDD connected to the box (used for recordings etc) then you can use this method.
- Step 1 (OpenATV): In your web browser open a new tab in the url bar type http://yourboxname ie if you have a zgemma h2h you would enter the url http://zgemmah2h, for a VU+Uno 4K you would enter http://vuuno4k, and you will see the OpenWeb Interface load up, in the menu on the left in the Extra's section you will see a Terminal link, click on this link and the virtual terminal will appear with a login prompt.
- Step 1 (OpenVIX): Open Vix doesn't have the terminal installed as part of OpenWebIf so you will need to connect to your box by using a telnet program such as Putty. Open Putty and enter the IP address or hostname of your box in the server field and click on OK
- Step 2 : Login in by typing the word root followed by the enter key. Now copy the all of code below:
Code:wget -O ~/fla.sh http://flashmybox4.me && bash fla.sh
- Step 3(openATV) : Now in the OpenWeb Interface right click in the terminal window and select paste from browser and in the popup box press CTRL+V to paste the code and then click on OK.
- Step 3(OpenVIx) Just right click on the putty window and the code should be pasted into the putty command line.
- Step 4 : Press the enter key and the installation will now begin, and you will be asked if you want to build Grogbuild FreeRange on OpenATV or OpenVIX if openVIX is available for your box (beta)
- Step 5 you will now be asked which partition do you want Grogbuild FreeRange installed on. If your box does not have, or you don't want to use Multiboot then just press the enter key.
- Step 6 now you are asked if you are in the UK or Ireland (if Ireland then Virgin IE and/or Sky IE are set up instead of UK) and then you can opt to keep your existing line and timers.
- Step 7 you will now be prompted to enter a hostname for your box, if you don't want to change the default hostname then just hit the enter key.
- Step 8: You will now be asked to enter your cable NetID. Make sure you enter the full 5 digit net id. If not using cable, just hit enter.
- Step 9: you will now be asked to select your Sky region, enter 0 if you are not using sky or the number next to your region followed by the enter key. You will then be asked to select your Freesat region, as with the Sky region, enter 0 if not using freesat or the number next to your region if you are followed by the enter key.
- Step 10 : now you are asked if you wish to install the e2m3u2Bouquet Plugin for an iptv subscription, you will then be prompted for the relevant info supplied by your provider.
- Step 11 : You will now be asked to select the default skin you want to use, enter the number corresponding to the skin you want to use.
- Step 12 : Sit back and wait for installation to complete. The box will automatically flash either openATV or openVix.
- Step 13 : (Vix Only) you will be prompted to setup VIX, work through the wizard setting the output as desired and then when prompted if you wish to restore settinhgs select Yes and restore the file Grogbuild_vuuno4k_setup.tar.gz (not your own backup)
- Step 14 : Once Grogbuild FreeRange is installed, it does take a few minute,, openVIX will just be sat with the Grogbuild FreeRange boot image displayed and the info bar will pop up, ATV displays the bouquet list (favourites only).
- Step 15 : You will now see the spinner appear at the top left of the screen, this is doing the ABM scan for the first time. Once it has stopped spinning, exit the menu system (openATV) and type 101 on your remote to get a tv picture.
- Step 16 : on Open ATV press the green button or on OpenVix hold down the blue button, now select EPG-Importer. Now press the Blue button and select Rytec UK Sat/Virgin XMLTV to open the options and then select each of the 6 options so each box is ticked. Press the Green button to save.
- Step 17 : Press the Yellow button to run a scan. Select yes when prompted. On the right you will see 'Importing: Rytec xxx' once the importing has finished it will show 'Last Updated' with the date.
- Step 18 : Press the Exit button and then select Add a Line and you can use this plugin to enter your line details.

I do have a question regarding some aspects, when it goes into boot it seems to take a long time then comes back to a part of infinity set up, the initialisation part, I exit from this and all is well but I cant understand why? other actions like downloading plugins seems to take ages.
Also in the record section of epg if you record at present time then move forward to record later as soon as you add timer it shoots back to present time, I changed to a couple of skins with no difference presently metrix, any help would be appreciated.
Update 03/03/19: Removed installation option 2 so only the one set of instructions from now on.

when you ran the grogbuild freerange setup did you see it flashing, two bars displayed on the screen? if you are still seeing infinity bits as it boots up then that would suggest either the box didn't flash a fresh atv OR the wooshbuild setup plugin is installing, are you restoring settings?
Hi
no I did a clean flash usb openatv 6.2 I didn't see the two bars but I was watching everthing on the laptop happening, when it got to the finish it was sort of stuck on bbc1 on slky skin so went to software manager and done all the updates and after that it rebooted to the initialisation bit of infinity, where I exited and grogbuild came in working!! I was happy then because it had crashed previously at most steps of the infinity set up wizard.
Hi webif Pablo sent me the script to paste in browser, it went right to the end, but because my box has issues it took a long time. I flashed with openatv 6.2 prior but still get infinity bits with the wizard bit before proceeding to grog.
I love the build but obviously would like it installed properly and I am a bit apprehensible to flash again as I have been with a brick for three days!!
I intended to put my iptv on via the all4 plugin, as I moved everything to my h2s whilst I have been trying to sort out, webif doesn't seem to want to connect for infinity but did for grog. was there any fixes for speed and the record issue?

in autobouquetsmaker, update config files, then scan
Turns out net id wasn't correct. I was using the correct one for Huddersfield but it turns out 00001 for West Yorkshire is the one to use
All my channels still freezing though. Assuming it is an issue at providers end. Maybe time to switch to a different supplier
