thank you for your answer.

i wanted to answer myself but i forget.

i made a binary compare of the 2 ipkg. It is exactly the same file !!!!!

sorry i didn't tell sooner i found out that.

another question.

is it possible to access the source file of a ipkg ??

this timeshift is really better than other timeshift because he keeps everything i watch on the hard disk but there is something wird

when i watch a channel, it record simultanously 2 identical files on the hard disk.

one temporary for going backward will i am watching the tv.

and a second that he will keep on the hard disk forever (that is why i like this time shift, because it keep each file on the disk)

wouldn't be better if he save only the temporary file when i am watching the channel... and then when i zap on an other channel, it would rename the file and keep it on the hard disk ???


(i don't know if you understand what i want to say, my english is really very bad)

is there a way to access the source to see if i can find out how to change that or contact the author to ask him why he didn't do like that ?

thank you.

maybe he reads this forum !!!! (and speaks english :))

me again.

i never made any program in python and i absolutly don't know anything about it.

maybe what i will say is stupid and i am sorry if this is the case.

in the directory /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/AltShift

there is 2 files.

__init__.py
__init__.pyo
plugin.py
plugin.pyo

it seems that the .py is the source code.

i don't know what is the .pyo maybe it is the compiled module like .obj in c language. but i am not sute as i read that python is a interpretated language.

so if i change the code source of plugin.py and replace it in my vu+

or i change the code source of the plugin.py and find someone who can compile it for me.

do i have a chance to make any change to the extension ?


thank you.
