Not sure where to post this as it is to do with IPTV but also Solo2 Clone - please move if needed.

Trying to setup IPTV but when running the script via putty I am getting the following error:

wget: not an http or ftp url: Dropbox......


I assume this may be down to the version of wget on the box and if this is the case is it possible to update it without updating the image on the box

Or if you can let me know if its something else I need to be looking at?

Thanks guys
 
What script or file has your provider given you as there are a few ways to add

if you can get it working in another box, you can use a bouquet editor ( for example dreamset )you can then read from one box and send to the other, only problem is your box that wont run the script wont update daily, you will need to ftp the bouquets each day to update. failing that get a cheap box that will allow you to use wget. What image are you using ?

Using the following script:

wget -O script.sh https://www.LINKTOFILE.txt?dl=1 && sed -i 's/pppp/LINK'/g script.sh && sed -i 's/aaaa/xxxx'/g script.sh && sed -i 's/bbbb/yyyy'/g script.sh && chmod +x script.sh && ./script.sh

Obviously changed the xxxx and yyyy to my details.

Problem is mate I don't have another box to get this running on. Looks like I may have to invest in another but that doesn't help me trying to get this set up for the fight later.
The image I think is a Helios image.....well old I know. Have tried updating it but the box stays on the splash screen with some of the more recent images.
Pretty sure I have ran V4 update on my Solo2 Clone Lonrisun in the past so if anyone could recommend the most up to date image I could try to see if I can get the wget to work please?

you could message your provider and see if he will do you m3u file up and open it in VLC on your PC just for the fight, he might be able to do you a 24hr one for tonight, you could even put it into your smart tv , or into kodi

Good idea mate, will find out.

In the meantime I'm going to try flashing my box with a more recent image. Have held off as not had any real reason to update it but the time has now come.

If anyone could recommend an image for a V4 Lonrisun box that will be great. I'll be looking through the download section to see what I can find :)

open Vix, PLi , blackhole . in that order of preference.
 
Just looking in the download section and there are plenty there to choose from.

Thanks for you help guys.


UPDATE:
Ok so I have flashed with "OpenVix 5.0 002 beta" from the download section and managed to run the script.

So if anyone is getting a similar error it is defo down to wget being to old to run https:// so you will need to upgrade your image.

However I have in the past tried installing images for my box and had problems with it booting up. I have used the correct images for the box (sure I did anyway) so not quite sure why they didn't work.

But the image above and I also tried flashing with "Openvix 3.2" from the download section and these both went on fine and without any problems.
