SSH support ?

Post by demasiado » Mon Jan 20, 2020 2:35 pm

Hi,

I just ordered an Hellobox 8 receiver, hopefully with the new hw revision.

While I am eagerly waiting for it to arrive, after reading a lot of messages
on this and other boards, I am beginning to think about a few ideas
for developers to improve it even further.

The first one coming to my mind is related to SSH support.
If the firmware is actually based on (somehow customized) Linux it should not be too hard to add support for ssh access to a console shell to. This would allow users to remotely configure the box and easily insert URLs into IPTV lists, etc. Maybe this would be also a first step towards providing settings export and import capabilities, although extending the DVBPlayer Windows app would probably more convenient for non-techie Hellobox owners.

What do you think ? Can it be done ? Will eventually be done ? ;)
Thanks in advance!
