  • Latest openvix installed everything seems fine. But problem is box crashes for no reason when i try to switch from one channel to another. Maybe after 4 hours use or just randomly sometimes. Anyone experienced this problem or know any solution how to fix it?.


    freezes while the spinner is active, requiring a manual power cycle via the rear switch to recover


    Logs in Home/Root do not show what causes this problem./

  • I can watch channels for hours with no crash. But then out of nowhere it crashes. Only when i switch to a different channel i only use IPTV. I can live with that but very annoying . I don't expect such things with brand new box. Box is completely new. Just very annoying.

  • Are you watching IPTV or dvb-s? If IPTV, which plugin are you using?

    YEAH iptv. I guess it's good now. Maybe weather plugin caused crashes i think. Also bad EPG xml.gz source in epgimport made box crash. But most likely MSN weather plugin probably not compatible with the device.Also i deleted other plugins i installed before like Aspectratioswitch and autoresolution. I tested for some hours not a single crash yet. I'm sure one of those plugins caused conflicts in the box.
