CiefpDishPointer v1.1
Enigma2 Plugin (Python 2 & Python 3)

DESCRIPTION:
A plugin that helps beginners to align their satellite dish — to
determine the zero satellite, to check if the dish is properly
aligned, and to get all required angles (azimuth, elevation, LNB skew).

Works like dishpointer.com, adapted for Enigma2.
I haven't tested Python 2.

MAIN FEATURES:

▶ Automatic geolocation
- IP-based location detection (ip-api.com)
- Shows: continent, country, city, latitude, longitude
- Manual edit via INFO button

▶ Four operating modes
- All Satellites — shows nearest satellite to your location
- Motorised — calculates True South/North and declination
- Multi LNB — select multiple satellites, plugin finds zero
- Single — select one satellite from list

▶ Calculations
- Azimuth true and magnetic
- Dish elevation
- LNB skew (Left/Right)
- Declination for motorised systems

▶ Single Satellite (GREEN button)
- List of all satellites from satellites.xml
- Select one satellite with arrows
- Shows calculated angles for selected satellite

▶ Multi LNB (YELLOW button)
- Checkbox list of satellites
- Mark multiple satellites you want to track
- Plugin calculates best zero satellite
- Shows list of selected satellites and average position

▶ Help Images (BLUE button)
- Visual explanations for:
• Elevation (too low/too high)
• Azimuth (wrong axis)
• Declination (too high/too low)
• LNB Skew
• True South
• Motor setup (4 examples)

▶ Real-time signal
- SNR with gradient bar (red → yellow → green)
- AGC with gradient bar
- DB value (e.g. 16.38)
- Current channel, provider and satellite

▶ Bilingual support
- English (default)
- Serbian
- Switch via MENU → Settings → Language

BUTTONS / REMOTE KEYS:

RED (EXIT) — closes plugin
GREEN (SINGLE SAT) — opens single satellite selection
YELLOW (MULTI LNB) — opens Multi LNB setup
BLUE (HELP IMAGES) — opens help images
MENU (LANGUAGE) — opens Settings (language, location, refresh)
INFO (LOCATION) — opens manual location edit
LEFT/RIGHT — changes system type
EXIT — closes plugin

COMPATIBILITY:

✅ Python 3 (OpenPLi 8+, OpenATV 7+, Egami 10+)
✅ FHD skin (1920x1080)
✅ OpenPLi, OpenATV, Egami, OpenBH, PurE2

VERSION 1.1 — WHAT'S NEW:

• Added Multi LNB setup with checkbox list
• Added Single Satellite screen with calculated angles
• Added Help Images screen with images and text
• Added Location Edit for manual location change
• Added Settings screen (language, refresh, location)
• Added Serbian translation
• Signal bar with gradient image (icon_snr.png, icon_agc.png)
• Current service display (channel, provider, satellite)
• Dish icon in center of screen
