Do you want to contribute to Open Vision and you don’t know where to start? https://forum.openvision.tech/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=306 is for you.

There we will tell you how you could contribute to Open Vision and help us grow together.

As our build server isn’t quite ready and we need more testing and testers regarding both Open Vision 7.2 and 9.1 since now you’re allowed to publish development versions with “unofficial-version” tag, read:

* Are you allowed to compile development versions? Yes!
* Are you allowed to distribute development versions? Yes but only with “unofficial-version” tag.
* Are you allowed to make our images compatible with clones? Yes!
* Are you allowed to distribute cloned images? Yes but only with “clone-version” tag.
* Do we support clones? No!
* Are you allowed to make backup of our images? Yes!
* Are you allowed to distribute backup images? Yes but only with “backup-version” tag.
* Do we provide support for self-building? No! We prefer to work on our projects.
* Do we need more Vision Developers? Absolutely yes! Contribute to our git and we will contact you!
* Do we need more Vision Testers? Absolutely yes! Test our images and report bugs, help us grow you’ll see the title flows.
* Do we support our image in multiboot situations? No! Check about screen and if our module is not loaded then you’re on your own!

In the past few days “Hains” added “GStreamer 1.17.0.1” support to Open Vision but this time we’re going to use the latest OpenEmbedded (master branch) so you’ll see:

GCC 9.1.0
Glibc 2.29
Python 2.7.16
OpenSSL 1.1.1b
Busybox 1.30.1

and more soon …

First public test release: http://www.mediafire.com/file/su33i8f2d7ijbyh/VisionDroid-7.2.r13.apk/file (Please share this on all forums)

Sources: https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/VisionDroid

VisionDroid is based on dreamDroid sources: https://github.com/sreichholf/dreamDroid

We need to change some dreamDroid logos and svg files and adapt VisionDroid to be compatible with Open WebIF not Dreambox WebIF.

“Persian Palace” android app isn’t ready yet because the enigma2 plugin should be adapted for Open Vision and I’m working on it (It was for “Persian Empire” images before).

As I mentioned in the news: https://openvision.tech/?p=47 If you know android and enigma2, you could help us make VisionDroid more compatible with Open WebIF.

Open Vision now supports “Edision OS Mio 4K Plus” and “Amiko Viper 4K”, even Backup Suite supports them now (not tested), no r7 for new models as what we’re working on now is considered as 7.2-r12.

If you want to compile a new image please follow https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/openvision-oe#how-to-build-an-open-vision-image but remove “openvision-oe” folder first and clone it again:

git clone –depth 1 https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/openvision-oe.git

You may know “Persian Empire” images from the past, “Persian Professionals” team had an android app for controlling STBs using legendary “Persian Palace” plugin, now thanks to “mammadalius” the “Persian Grandeur” android app is here and “Persian Prince” is working on it to bring both android app and “Persian Palace” plugin to Open Vision images.

Some of you have no idea about the possibilities these two would bring but we promise you will be amazed 😉

If you know android and enigma2, you could help us make VisionDroid more compatible with Open WebIF: https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/VisionDroid

Open Vision now supports “Gigablue Trio 4K” and “Beyonwiz V2”, even Backup Suite supports them now (not tested), no r7 for new models as what we’re working on now is considered as r8.

Open Vision r7 has been released just now: https://openvision.tech/stb-images/ 😉

And guess what, now you could download Open Vision for GigaBlue 4K models, Zgemma, Formuler, GFutures, Qviart, Xsarius and Vu+ too.

“moham96” is a skilled developer, He’s your only chance to see enigma2 on amlogic devices and thanks to him now Open Vision supports “Magicsee” and “Khadas” devices:

c300

c300pro

c400pro

kvim2

Although r7 will be released for “kvim2” only as we need to change more things for “Magicsee” devices but you will see r8 and upcoming releases for them 😉
