Recover System

Recover system remotely

You can recover the SMP system remotely by clicking the Recover button on the Web Manager. Firmware and configurations will be restored to the factory default.

Note
Network settings (including WIFI) will be kept in order to reconnect to this player remotely again. If SMP player get IP address from DHCP, we don't guarantee DHCP server will issue an identical IP address to this SMP player after the system is recovered. Please also note that 3G data network settings will NOT be kept if you apply system recovery.

Recover system locally

If you encounter any unrecoverable problem (e.g. unable to boot up) while using SMP player, you can use System Recovery to restore your system firmware to factory default. More options can be provided by using this method to recover system.

Start or Restart the SMP with keyboard connected to the box.
Keep pressing the TAB key while power on until the boot loader menu appear (cayinos & recovery).
Enter recovery, and press enter. If you want to recover system without answering questions, just enter recovery automatic. The program will skip step 5, 6 and 7.
While the recovery system boots up, follow the instructions.

When the instruction "The system will recover to factor y default." is shown, please type Y. Then the system firmware will be restored to the original one, i.e. you have to upload all patches again after the system recovery.

Note
You can choose to recover system, configuration or resource altogether or separately. For example, you can only recover the system firmware first, and type N for the configuration recovery. If it works for you, all configurations and resources will be kept after the system is restored. If it doesn't work, you can enter system recovery function again, and type Y in the configuration option.

When the instruction "The configuration will recover to factory default." is shown, you can choose to type Y and SMP will restore settings to original ones. You will lose all settings which you made on this box, and you will be prompt to enter a new key for this box when you restart the system again. The key label is stuck behind the SMP device.
When the instruction "The resource will recover to factory default." is shown, you can type Y and SMP will restore all the resource to the original default setting.
Press Enter to reboot.
