Hi guys, my upfront apologies if this has been asked before and if it has a hyperlink to the relevant thread would be appreciated.

Could anyone explain how to install the plugins which i have found on the technomatesoftwareonline page such as youtube.ipk on my tm800.

Greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
 
the youtube and vlc plugins dont yet work m8 due to the media player on the receiver not being fully working, but

download the plugin you want, google maps works ;)

FTP it to your receiver, place it in the /tmp folder

open a telnet window

login to the receiver by typing telnet and the receivers IP, example

telnet 192.168.1.7

user is root, password is blank unless you have set your own (blank as in no password, not the word blank ;))

now type the following, press enter after each line

cd tmp
ipkg install name-of-plugin.ipk

so for google maps, itd be

ipkg install gmaps.ipk

once its installed, on the remote, press the blue button twice, then exit, then go into the plugins menu, and youll find them

if you go back through one of my old ppanel posts, theres a panel that will do all the work for you, i think it was the last version i uploaded, or the one before that ;)

for the newer OE receivers, copy your ipk file to /tmp, then in telnet, type

Code:
You don't have permission to view the code content. Log in or register now.

then restart enigma, and your plugin will be available
 
I think you have to use telnet and change folder to cd /tmp
then type: ipkg install *.ipk
to installa all plugins
