    Hi,


    Could anyone please help me to remove the 2 cogwheels appearing in the upper left corner exactly at every 5 minutes? The screen shows the spinning cogwheels animation for 1-2 sec while the program is going on without freezing. Not a serious problem but very annoying.


    Reboot does not help. When I disconnect the net cable it will not show the cogwheels any more, but of course, I want to keep the network connected. The box is a DM 7020HD with the latest Newnigma2, if that matters.


    Thanks very much in advance.

    Could be that the flash memory is full, meaning the box is struggling with simple tasks,this can happen if the epg info is being saved to flash over a long period,
    Also make sure the box is not running too hot, and there is plenty of ventilation,

    No, the flash is approx. 35% full, so it is far from being filled up totally. The box receives the same ventilation as before.


    The latest "stable" image of Newnigma2 v4.0.17 (jan. 2016) is installed. What if I would re-flash with the latest "daily" image? Would it remove the problem? Thanks for your supporting ideas.

    Is there a check box to check for stable images only instead of all updates??
    This sounds similar to what happens with vix images...although I don´t use vix so can´t tell you where to check...
    if you do see the option of image update, leave it as stable only.. full restart the box and let it run a while..

    It seems that the problem has been solved. Most likely the box could not record a program onto a network HD (NAT), which was switched off in the meantime. It tried to repeat reconnecting in 5 min intervals, despite the fact that the box was rebooted several times. When a stupid software meets a stupid user it will result in a catastrophe... ;)

    No such thing bud!!
    I´d look at it as an "oversight" or a "technical difficulty"... we, after all, are only human ..
