=== MeLE A2000 ===
== Hikari TV ひかりTV ==


=== Mele file storage ===
== Tuner update ==


http://www.lundman.net/ftp/mele/
I found out the ST3200 "triple" tuner is android based, which made me want to update the tuner.


I ordered a new rental of the 3200 from the Hikari page, and it was sent to me 2 days later. After some firmware updates, it eventually
asks for the Entry-code. I kept all the information from last time, but the old code did not work. I had to call the NTT purara line
and they reset the entry-code for me (same code again, this time the tuner accepts it)


=== v1.2 firmware ===
The good news, the new tuner is much nicer to use. Not painfully slow like the "double tuner" was. And it can do 1080p which is nicer.
Definitely worth upgrading for, as the old tuner was painfully slow to use.


Mele_HTPC_120907_Ver1.2.rar
One strange thing is, its based on Android, so it is already able to do language selection in the OS, but they don't let you change the language to English.  
It is disappoingint they would remove that ability. I could even provide them the translation file :)


You have to attach an USB HDD if you want to record tv, I'm not to concerned with that, but I do have a few drives lying around so maybe I will, for fun.
It is also a little comical that they design a new Android based STB, without bluetooth (Android generally comes with bluetooth) only to
have to add a bluetooth dongle for the game controller.


=== Status ===
== First time setup ==


Current status with the Mele A2000, Allwinner A10.
After going through the typical/annoying Japanese signup protocol of;


Official release: Android 4 ICS, 4.0.8.
# calling, handing over name and address
Kernel: 3.0.31+
# they send you a form, so that you write name and address
# so they can give you the service


'''Positive:'''
I got the tuner in the mail ok, as well as the "setup number". There was also a NTT flets COP code I needed, so I called NTT to get that.
* Video playback 1080p
* MKV playback
* TS playback
* YouTube
* Android market and Games (Angry Birds etc)


'''Negative:'''
Lots of channels, and the tuner is all in Japanese, but pretty easy to navigate. As always, it is a little sluggish when using the GUI, changing channels and so on. About the same as the satellite and cable STBs I have used before. One would hope they'd made it faster over the years though.
* <s>Network Streaming</s> Fixed. NIC has been patched to allow smooth 1080p steaming
* Audio. The settings; '''CODEC''' no sound, but probably on RCA. '''HDMI''' choppy sound, unusable. If made to work, only '''stereo''' on HDMI. '''SPDIF''' not working, does not turn on. (No red light)
* Bitstreaming; Unconfirmed since SPDIF is not functional. But can the hardware bitstream TrueHD, and DTS-MA ?
* 10bit video does not play (not supported by hardware, CPU too slow for software)
* AVI/XviD does not play (not supported by hardware, CPU too slow for software)


Currently, it is no good for mediaplayer. But if all you want is a toy to play youtube, some android games, and only stereo sound, it is definitely capable.
These are things I want to find an answer for:


* Hackable? Can I get in, if so, can I add English myself? only port 20000 open so far. (upnp?)
* Quick channel list. I want a fast way to get to a more scrollable channel list. Right now you either get full guide (slow) or large icons (slow), or deep in the menus (slow)
* Quick channels, can I set my preferred channels on the number keys, and quick jump? Looks like I can, but it sure don't work.
* Output is 1080i, why not 1080p.
* Can I get it to work with XBMC and remove tuner? (IPV6 etc)


=== Android 4 ICS wired NIC patch ===


I have been working on trying to improve the '''wemac''' NIC driver in the Mele A2000 Allwinner A10 hardware, which will stutter when playing 720p/1080p over network. The current patch makes it much better, such that I think it is usable now. There is a '''mynewerimage.img''' image in the storage area, that you can '''dd''' to the '''nandc''' device. I will work on submitting the patch upstream.
== Mini review ==


For example, if you boot miniand image:
I have used the service for a little bit now. I did not really understand the difference in the two packages you sign up for;


  # modprobe nand    # nand.ko on my storage area too
* TV: This is the equivalent of SkyPerfect satellite, or cable. You get the channels, and can watch them when your program is on. EPG guides, and scheduled recording.
# wget http://lundman.net/ftp/mele/mynewerimage.img
* Video: This is the OnDemand service, where you look around to find something to watch, then just watch it. Whole seasons are usually available.
# dd if=/dev/nandc of=mele_nandc_backup.bin bs=65536
# dd if=mynewerimage.img of=/dev/nandc bs=65536
# sync
# reboot -f


And take out the SD card to boot Android again. If you do this using Android, the device node is /dev/block/nandc
You can also "connect" your tuner with the HikariTV web page, and view EPG guides on the computer to schedule recordings of shows, as well as, searching for shows. That is worth doing, as shifting through guides, on the tuner itself, is slow and tedious.


=== Android 4 ICS official Mele image ===
Some shows will not have English. This is very strange. For example, BBC's "Sherlock" Season 1 has both subbed and dubbed. But the Season 2 one-week special only had dubbed version. It is really a crime to do that.


The official Mele Android ICS image is out, called '''Mele_HTPC_Android_4.0_V1.rar''' which you need to use PhoenixCard to "burn". Once installed, you can use '''audiopatch1.3.apk''' to enable some sound features. Otherwise it seems quite similar to A10 firmware.  
For some reason, Comedy shows appear completely absent from the Video service. One would expect at least something like Friends, My Name is Earl, Community, Big Bang Theory, Scrubs, The Office. And I don't mean *specifically* those shows, but any 30mins comedy shows just does not exist.


For those not using Windows, I also made a '''dd''' image: '''Mele_HTPC_Android_4.0_V1.ddimg.bin.bz2''' [http://lundman.net/ftp/mele/Mele_HTPC_Android_4.0_V1.ddimg.bin.bz2] Just dd the whole thing to your raw device.
Everything TV is sorted under Drama. Be it Bones, CSI, Fringe, 24, Dexter... All Drama. I guess since there is no Comedy genre.


=== Android 4 IceCreamSandwich ===
I have no issues with it being over my Internet connection. But I do tend to turn off the tuner when I am not watching tv, as I am aware it is using the network.


'''Update: the non-beta release of ICS4 came out (for the A10, not Mele's release), which has settings/display, and lets you chose resolution '''


For Unix and clones:
I am happy to stay with this service for the time being. However, I will be looking for a better STB. If something faster (CPU), or in English, or even XBMC support, becomes available it will be worth exploring.
wget http://www.lundman.net/ftp/mele/homlet_4.0_v1.0_20120609_dd.img.lzma
7z x homlet_4.0_v1.0_20120609_dd.img.lzma
sudo dd if=homlet_4.0_v1.0_20120609_dd.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1M
sync


Where you need to replace X in /dev/sdX by the correct letter for your SD card reader.
Now insert the SD card in your Mele, and wait until the LED stops blinking, remove the SD card and restart the device. Et voila!
(Read more: [http://www.cnx-software.com/2012/06/18/mele-a1000a2000-android-4-0-image-released/#ixzz1ylfoeKQc]) See I kept the paste URL cos I'm nice! :)






There is also an audiopatch for the ICS4 image to get sound to work. Copy over '''audiopatch1.2.apk''' (adb, or physical media) to your ICS4, install and run.


Not convinced it makes any difference for me. Audio appears not to work still.


It appears the contents on audiopatch1.2 is pretty much just libswa.so. Not entirely sure what it thinks to do with it, but if I do a '''find''' from root, there is no such library, before and after running patch.


I copied the file by hand:


busybox cp /data/data/com.android.audiopatch/files/libswa.so /system/lib/
=== Networking ===


and I get sound playing videos with some audio formats now. Like, TV MKV releases.
I had a fair bit of trouble getting HikariTV to work well. It would sometimes start glitching like crazy, I thought it was the wifi router, or maybe the two switches connected in chain.


=== Mele A2000 ===
But eventually it turns out the be the Win7 PC going into hibernation (sleep). The switch appears to think it still should get multicast packets (wake on lan is on) and something goes weird there. Shutdown has no side effects.


I purchased a MeLE A2000 from Tom over at [http://www.aliexpress.com/product-fm/546571245-Mele-A2000-TV-box-Allwinner-A10-hackable-device-wholesalers.html aliexpress], and been playing around with it as well. First I wanted to install ICS4, to do that I downloaded the '''android_4.0.img''' file from the 'net. Alas, there is a large volume of confusing information on what to do with this.


[http://www.lundman.net/ftp/mele/ http://www.lundman.net/ftp/mele/]
[https://www.wuala.com/zercosz/Mele%20A2000/Firmware/?key=ThisIsFC2012 https://www.wuala.com/zercosz/Mele%20A2000/Firmware/?key=ThisIsFC2012]


For the MeLE A2000, I also downloaded '''PhoenixCardV303(win7)''' and installed that in my VirtualBox Win7 system, forwarded the OSX USB drive and told it to install '''android_4.0.img'''.


[https://www.wuala.com/zercosz/Mele%20A2000/Utilidades%20Mele/?key=ThisIsFC2012 https://www.wuala.com/zercosz/Mele%20A2000/Utilidades%20Mele/?key=ThisIsFC2012]
=== NEC Aterm WR9500N ===
[http://www.lundman.net/ftp/mele/ http://www.lundman.net/ftp/mele/]


After that, I inserted the SD card into Mele, and rebooted.
I picked up an Aterm WR9500N Wifi router. Fairly easy to setup, defaults were all good. Testing HikariTV with this router now.


The power LED will blink RED + BLUE for a while, then power LED will turn off.


Take out SDcard, and reboot MeLE. It will now boot ICS, but only on HDMI@720p.


I can confirm BubbleUPNP + 2160pPlayer will play 1080p MKVs over network. Nice!
=== Buffalo ===


I signed up for HikariTV recently, to see what that is like to use. I went for the "double" tuner rental.


=== Google Market/Play ===
Initially I was using an old Buffalo G54 wifi router. It could technically handle it, but all wifi communication stopped when watching tv.


I installed one of the Terminal programs, and told adb to use TCP (haven't bothered to open my mele yet). Using adb and the instructions found [http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/30855-scripts-allwinner-a10-tablets-google-play-script/ allwinner a10 scripts] I loaded Google Market/Play to the mele.
I went and picked up a WZR-450HP. You have to enable the "Movie engine" and then IPV6 option. Then HikariTV worked.


However, I noticed you could only watch for 2-3 minutes, then channels would go blocky, corrupt and generally be unplayable. Some channels did not play at all.


It turns out that you can set the "multicast rate", for which the default is "11 mbps", on the Buffalo WIFI router.


=== Changing resolution ===
However, with HD channels, it is sending at about 8-16mbps. I changed the "multicast rate" to 22mbps and it is currently working well.


This refers to the Beta ICS4. Probably is not useful any more, but I will leave it here for reference.


Changing resolution can be done by modifying the boot time scripts that the A10 uses. Usually done on a separate boot partition. For example, the Mele image has the files:


mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
=== Wifi router connecting to Internet ===
ls -l /mnt/
evb.bin


git clone https://github.com/amery/sunxi-tools
First, we need to look at how my Internet router connects to my ISP, and gets the IPv6 addresses worked out.
cd sunxi-tools
make
./bin2fex /mnt/evb.bin > evb.fex   


Edit the file any odd way you want, changing '''screen0_output_type''' and '''screen0_output_mode'''. See modes here: [https://github.com/amery/linux-allwinner/blob/allwinner-v3.0-android-v2/include/linux/drv_display_sun4i.h#L132]

=== Android Kernel ===
 
I wanted to replace the ICS4 kernel with my own, for the nic fixes. These are the steps I took:
 
git clone https://github.com/amery/linux-allwinner
git branch lichee-3.0.8-sun4i
make sun4i_crane_defconfig
   
   
Check that .config has

  # That was STB getting its IPv6 address.
  # CONFIG_MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL is not set


The wemac nic was panicing on boot everytime, until I changed this:
=== Reverse Engineering ===


drivers/net/sun4i/sun4i_wemac.c
I contacted HikariTV to see if I am allowed to write my own client to play HikariTV, as I think it can be done better than current STB. They replied that they had no OpenSource information at the moment. We know the STB runs Linux/2.6.20.19-ce3tsb-20091202, so it must exist somewhere.
#define PHY_POWER 0  /* was 1 */


make uImage
Unless NEC is breaking GNU license.


From android, I used ConnectBot to make a copy of the 'boot' partition, nandc.
Anyway, this is what the bootup process appears to do:
The STB is 192.168.0.5
Router is 192.168.0.1

Now I boot into Miniand image on SD card, use my nand.ko to load the device for /dev/nand*. You can find my Miniand kernel '''uImage''' and '''nand.ko''' in the storage area too. The default Miniand kernel did not come with nand driver.

The wired nic in the Mele is a '''wemac''' from Davidcom. It is unfortunately quite poor. You will get decent 100MB speeds from it, but it uses the CPU. If you do any transfers while trying to watch video (including watching video over network) it will stutter for 1080p. Interestingly if you use SD, or USB while watching, it has no problem.

=== ZFS on Android ===
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 
<HDPF_TCX>
I have already ported ZFS to ARM, so that should just work if you compile ZFS with your kernel. But I also wanted to see if I can get ZFS to work with Android. The modules do load ok, but execution does not work:
  <ServiceArea>fdn-e</ServiceArea>
 
  <Version>1207250822</Version>

So one option is to have a mediaplayer with UPNP ability, like that of BubbleUPNP or PlugPlayer. However, both of these do poorly with Mele's remote control. With Bubble you can not click on Directories to enter them, but have to Mouse-Mode in/out to do so.
        <MaximumTSBitRate>9</MaximumTSBitRate>

So one option is to mount all UPNP devices as a directory. Since Mele's kernel already comes with FUSE, I compiled '''djmount''' for it (patched version with >2GB size fixed).

And indeed, if you use the File browser in ICS4, you can just enter that directory, and play any video. Note that '''djmount''' is pretty slow on listing directories, and I think we might want to look at speeding that up if we are to use it long term. Also, increase the cache timeout from 60s to something much higher, like 10 minutes.
 
 
 
=== PS3EYE WebCam ===
 
I wanted to see if the PS3 Eye would work with Mele, and Skype.
 
Video:
 
# insmod gspca_main.ko                               
# insmod gspca_ov534.ko videomode=13     
 
That makes the camera work with Skype and '''Zoom Camera''' app. When I tried one of the 640x480 modes it just hangs, so currently it is 320x240@60.
 
Audio:
 
No idea. The device shows:
 
# cat /proc/asound/cards

                      sun4i-CODEC  Audio Codec

But no idea how to tell Android to use the USB device as the main microphone.
 
# setprop usb.audio.cap.device pcmC0D0c
# setprop media.audio.in.mode usb
 
Neither of those work.

Hikari TV ひかりTV

Tuner update

I found out the ST3200 "triple" tuner is android based, which made me want to update the tuner.

I ordered a new rental of the 3200 from the Hikari page, and it was sent to me 2 days later. After some firmware updates, it eventually asks for the Entry-code. I kept all the information from last time, but the old code did not work. I had to call the NTT purara line and they reset the entry-code for me (same code again, this time the tuner accepts it)

The good news, the new tuner is much nicer to use. Not painfully slow like the "double tuner" was. And it can do 1080p which is nicer. Definitely worth upgrading for, as the old tuner was painfully slow to use.

One strange thing is, its based on Android, so it is already able to do language selection in the OS, but they don't let you change the language to English. It is disappoingint they would remove that ability. I could even provide them the translation file :)

You have to attach an USB HDD if you want to record tv, I'm not to concerned with that, but I do have a few drives lying around so maybe I will, for fun. It is also a little comical that they design a new Android based STB, without bluetooth (Android generally comes with bluetooth) only to have to add a bluetooth dongle for the game controller.

First time setup

After going through the typical/annoying Japanese signup protocol of;

  1. calling, handing over name and address
  2. they send you a form, so that you write name and address
  3. so they can give you the service

I got the tuner in the mail ok, as well as the "setup number". There was also a NTT flets COP code I needed, so I called NTT to get that.

Lots of channels, and the tuner is all in Japanese, but pretty easy to navigate. As always, it is a little sluggish when using the GUI, changing channels and so on. About the same as the satellite and cable STBs I have used before. One would hope they'd made it faster over the years though.

These are things I want to find an answer for:

  • Hackable? Can I get in, if so, can I add English myself? only port 20000 open so far. (upnp?)
  • Quick channel list. I want a fast way to get to a more scrollable channel list. Right now you either get full guide (slow) or large icons (slow), or deep in the menus (slow)
  • Quick channels, can I set my preferred channels on the number keys, and quick jump? Looks like I can, but it sure don't work.
  • Output is 1080i, why not 1080p.
  • Can I get it to work with XBMC and remove tuner? (IPV6 etc)


Mini review

I have used the service for a little bit now. I did not really understand the difference in the two packages you sign up for;

  • TV: This is the equivalent of SkyPerfect satellite, or cable. You get the channels, and can watch them when your program is on. EPG guides, and scheduled recording.
  • Video: This is the OnDemand service, where you look around to find something to watch, then just watch it. Whole seasons are usually available.

You can also "connect" your tuner with the HikariTV web page, and view EPG guides on the computer to schedule recordings of shows, as well as, searching for shows. That is worth doing, as shifting through guides, on the tuner itself, is slow and tedious.

Some shows will not have English. This is very strange. For example, BBC's "Sherlock" Season 1 has both subbed and dubbed. But the Season 2 one-week special only had dubbed version. It is really a crime to do that.

For some reason, Comedy shows appear completely absent from the Video service. One would expect at least something like Friends, My Name is Earl, Community, Big Bang Theory, Scrubs, The Office. And I don't mean *specifically* those shows, but any 30mins comedy shows just does not exist.

Everything TV is sorted under Drama. Be it Bones, CSI, Fringe, 24, Dexter... All Drama. I guess since there is no Comedy genre.

I have no issues with it being over my Internet connection. But I do tend to turn off the tuner when I am not watching tv, as I am aware it is using the network.


I am happy to stay with this service for the time being. However, I will be looking for a better STB. If something faster (CPU), or in English, or even XBMC support, becomes available it will be worth exploring.





Networking

I had a fair bit of trouble getting HikariTV to work well. It would sometimes start glitching like crazy, I thought it was the wifi router, or maybe the two switches connected in chain.

But eventually it turns out the be the Win7 PC going into hibernation (sleep). The switch appears to think it still should get multicast packets (wake on lan is on) and something goes weird there. Shutdown has no side effects.



NEC Aterm WR9500N

I picked up an Aterm WR9500N Wifi router. Fairly easy to setup, defaults were all good. Testing HikariTV with this router now.


Buffalo

I signed up for HikariTV recently, to see what that is like to use. I went for the "double" tuner rental.

Initially I was using an old Buffalo G54 wifi router. It could technically handle it, but all wifi communication stopped when watching tv.

I went and picked up a WZR-450HP. You have to enable the "Movie engine" and then IPV6 option. Then HikariTV worked.

However, I noticed you could only watch for 2-3 minutes, then channels would go blocky, corrupt and generally be unplayable. Some channels did not play at all.

It turns out that you can set the "multicast rate", for which the default is "11 mbps", on the Buffalo WIFI router.

However, with HD channels, it is sending at about 8-16mbps. I changed the "multicast rate" to 22mbps and it is currently working well.


Wifi router connecting to Internet

First, we need to look at how my Internet router connects to my ISP, and gets the IPv6 addresses worked out.

# That was STB getting its IPv6 address.

Reverse Engineering

I contacted HikariTV to see if I am allowed to write my own client to play HikariTV, as I think it can be done better than current STB. They replied that they had no OpenSource information at the moment. We know the STB runs Linux/2.6.20.19-ce3tsb-20091202, so it must exist somewhere.

Unless NEC is breaking GNU license.

Anyway, this is what the bootup process appears to do: The STB is 192.168.0.5 Router is 192.168.0.1
