Hi all. Having a bit of a mare after flashing two vu solo 2 boxes with openvix version 4.1 0001, initialised and mounted HDD. Both boxes have twin cables going in and after channel scans all seemed well....until I tried recording. I press record and select autotimer to record series. That is fine until you try and record something else. For example I tried recording the live channel I was currently watching but had a message saying timer conflict with another timer recording set for 11 hours later???

The two boxes are at seperate addresses so not the dish/LNB or cables etc. I have scoured the tinternet for a resolve but whilst it appears there are only suggestions, there seems to be no answer. This never happened before as I had my first box around a year ago and worked perfectly with the same dish/LNB etc. It was a different/older openvix version. Do you think I should reflash to an older version or the very latest 4 1 016. I have also come across deleting a corrupted timer file in the etc/ folder but if this is the case where do I get a timer file to replace?

Head is cabbaged y'all!!!

McKee25 you are truly THE man!

That has been incredibly helpful and has solved the issue beyond doubt. The manual will be an absolute godsend. Thank you so much for you support!!!

If you want your channels in the same order as a Sky receiver numbering for example then you need to run autobouquets maker...

I have attached a guide for you. Page 20 of it covers what you need to do...

I have got the sky q skin going at the moment of which is doing pretty good...probably not as well installed as although I did the FTP and Telnet, I could not find the .IPK where the instructions said it would be but managed to get it going through skins. Because of this the epg is not so bad....have tried your suggestion but does not work with this skin so perhaps will have to suffer this for a while until such time I get more accomplished. Thanks for your support and swift replies.....very helpful indeed.

Thanks master G that has helped. I still have an issue where everything is jumbled in the sense that when I last flashed a box all the sports were together, as were the films, music etc. What I have now is BT sport surrounded by filth channels....not great for the kids! Any ideas?

Hi all. Running 4.1 openvix on solo 2 and have done a flash, software update and scan etc but the epg list is terrible. Have selected astra 28.2 sky uk etc and updated/saved but the epg is totally disordered and random. Have used sky q skin and blue hd skin to no avail. Can anyone just instruct me on how to get a simple straight forward epg where the channels are in some sort of order?

This would be deeply appreciated!

autobouquets is already installed on the Vix image bud..... your trying to install something that is already there.... menu/setup/service searching/autobouquetsmaker

How blonde do I feel right now! Was going the wrong way about it as havent flashed a box in nearly a year. Hoping to install sky q skin....what could possibly go wrong!

Wow how blonde do I feel now! Thanks mckee25 clearly I have going the wrong way about things (I am a bit of a newbie).... I think installing sky skin will prove quite challenging no doubt!

This looks awesome. I am having a bit of a mare sorting out decent epg on openvix 4.1 release on Vu solo 2....cant even get autobouquets to install. I am desperately hoping this will work as I have sky q anyway and have my box for MUTV and BT sports. Fingers and toes well and truly crossed this works for me.
