The Dreambox ReStream software will not run on a Windows OS. This is because of some part of the code that is executing Linux OS commands. And there are no good Windows alternatives. The native support for Windows OS and Mac OSX is dropped around the end of 2012.
The latest Live image from 10 November turned out to be corrupted. I just uploaded a freshly new one. So now you can download a working version of my Dreambox ReStream Live image.
Make sure you update code when you start the image. The EMERGENCY release is not yet installed on the Live image version.
Due to a javascript code issue, people had problems loading the page and watching a channel. The problem lays in the code that updates the EPG data. There are two parts of javascript that are involved here.
1. There is some javascript code that runs in the background fetching all the EPG data from the dreambox. These requests can take about 5 seconds for each channel. After loading the data, it is added to the javascript object. This will take some time and memory to handle. This part is now disabled.
After a month a new update. This update is an attempt to reduce the lagginess on Safari and Chrome browsers. It looks like that when there are lot of bouquets, it takes a long time to get the initial program information. So that is now limited to three bouquets. If there are more than 3 bouquets, the program data is retrieved per channel and not all at once.
I hope that this will solve the lagging issues.... If not, please do contact me to see if there is something else what could case it.
Last week we released a new Dreambox ReStream version. The numbering is now at 2.3. This is because of one big change and that is the introduction of caching. This is main update for version 2.3.
