first step - checking lamedb

Code:

astra --analyze http://localhost:8001/1:0:C:320:2B:55:31ADE2:0:0:0:

So first step is not Ok :

Code:

"INFO: Starting Astra SM 0.2 
 INFO : Bitrate : 0 Kbits/s "

You must enter values from your receiver

T2-MI finally ok !!!

What I did on my Edision Mio+ 4k:

- Flash with OpenATV 7.6 beta
- install astra-sm (opkg update + opkg install astra-sm)
- Install OScam
- transfert files : Settings for 4.8e and 23.5e, softcam, Astra.conf

Thanks for all members for your help, merci Dominique

I've always wondered why you all struggle so much with ready lamedb values, when Dreamboxedit is literally there... I have never ever tampered with my lamedb...

I finally found why T2-MI doesn't working with TNAP5.1 and Satdream10 images on my Edision Mio+

In etc/astra config, 2 files are needed: astra-sm.conf and astra-sm.lua

EnoSat · Oct 6, 2025

astra-sm.conf is used for py2
astra-sm.lua is used for py3
but the main influence on this is how the astra-sm startup script is written in /etc/init.d

hello i need help please
i want to receive 18 w cband and 22 w cband i have this signal but transponders are t2mi anyone please have the channels list and config

Novaler PRO support direct T2MI or need uses astra-sm for T2MI ?
There are only some MULIBOX on the NOVALER website.

Scan 18W and 22W and then create astra.conf and userbouquet (data for this files from lamedb)

If T2MI transponders are not displayed in the Signal Finder, remove the t2mi_p... values

Mal3k · Nov 14, 2025

alreadu recieved 18w but 22w i have no signal on this transporder 03749 L 45830 on my novaler
but i tried on another recivers there is signal and got channel worked any help
i got channel list for 22w but not worked too

EnoSat · Nov 15, 2025

Perhaps NOVALER does not support such high data flow (90 Mbits). You would need to find similarly sized transponders and verify LOCK.

It would be ideal if someone could verify of the transponder with other Linux receiver.

R.CARLOS 6 · Dec 5, 2025

able to get it work on Pure Image Vu+Duo 4K SE but the problem am facing now
when I zap between T2-MI channels with different PLP
Returning back to channel from PLP0 it will cause crach to astra-sm !!

these is log of what am facing

Code:

root@vuduo4kse:~# /usr/bin/astra --pid /var/run/astra.pid /etc/astra/astra.conf &                                                                             

[1] 7585                                                                     

root@vuduo4kse:~# PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (base:972: attemp

 to index local 'instance' (a nil value))

what is the solution ?

EnoSat · Dec 6, 2025

Try using LUA, not CONF.

Iam not that expert, please whats you mean and how ?

EnoSat · Dec 6, 2025

Python3 images usually install both types of configuration files, astra.conf and astra.lua.
They are equivalent, but the system may work differently with LUA files and CONF files.

R.CARLOS 6 · Dec 6, 2025

got same error with lua
so either .conf or .lua content has error or /usr/bin/astra need update to enable zapping between all PLP channels

I don't know, am guessing

EnoSat · Dec 7, 2025

You can try activating all options for tracking work with the file to see if you find any errors.

Code:

log.set({ filename = "/var/log/astrasmconf.log", syslog = "astrasmconf", stdout = true, debug = true, color = true })

or

Code:

log.set({ filename = "/var/log/astrasmlua.log", syslog = "astrasmlua", stdout = true, debug = true, color = true })

PS: Alternatively, it could be a Python error in the given image. Have you tried your settings in another image ?
