Hi everybody ,
just said i would give an update as i have been out of the countryfor a while . I managed to install / flash the latest openatv image on to the box . i was doing the flashing process wrong for a while as i never included the 2 extra files bootarg.bin and fastboot.bin along with the folder H9 on the usb stick but when i re read the flashing process for this particular model it worked perfectly .
Set up the box as per kiddac suggestions ,
Downloaded bmx and jediepgextreme and epg import .
The only problem i have is getting the recording function to work . followed the instructions on the box in setting up a HDD , ext 4 , but the box is recognising the 1 TB Hdd but when i try to record onto it , it says Hdd full , no storage , i have tried a 250 gb Hdd aswell and a 6 tb SSD but the same result every time . The box dosent even recognise the 6 tb SSD , this SSD is connected with a USB to a USB c Lead and no other power supply , the 1tb HDD has its own 12 volt power supply , dont know if this is relevant as to why the box wont pick up the 6TB SSD .
. I also dont have the option on my pc to initially format the recording drives to fat 32 and then format on the box . ex fat and ntfs seem to be my options on my pc , i have tried both file systems when formatting initially on the pc before placing the HDD or SSD in the box and then following boxes instructions .
i must be doing something wrong maybe with the mount point or the order i am doing the set up . Do i set up mount point first and then format hdd or the other way round . Any ides guys or is there a link somewhere to setting up the HDD for recording . thanks .
