Sorry to hear that mate, dreamelite phoenix 76C sim 201 is what i used and never had a problem, so if you have followed the guide exactly i am afraid all i can suggest is a reflash unless anyone else has another solution.
i am using dreamelite phoenix 82 sim 201,,,,,,,,,,, thanx
Try adjusting the settings as shown in the guide, if that fails try an older version of vlc on your pc, i have read of comparability issues with some newer ones although there are newer images released wiith a fix for this.
I have used this on open pli, dreamelite phoenix & icvs images on the 800 without any problems.
i have tried changeing settings tried older version of vlc, now when i scroll down left hand column to movie i press ok on remote and dreambox crashes,,, i am using dreamelite phoenix v3,,,,,,,,,,,,, thanx

Display More1. First you need to install VLC on your PC, use the latest version here
2. Start the install of VLC but make sure you install it under the Full install option.
3. After the VLC install has complete we need to add some extra info for this to work.
4. Right click the VLC icon on your PC desktop and select properties. Now in the target field add this --intf wxwin --extraintf=http to the end of the line you already have. It should look like this
"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --intf wxwin --extraintf=http
Apply this!
5. Now on your PC start the VLC Player, i do this via the PC start menu. Just minimise VLC to the task bar.
6. We now need to setup the VLC front end on you 800. To do this go to the plugins menu of your 800 and start the VLC Video Player.Then press add server. Setup as follows.

7. Press the green button to save the details you have entered.
8. Now for testing i advise you lower and firewalls you have on your PC.
9. Now make sure you have a divx or avi movie on your directory.
10. Select the VLC Player plugin highlight the server you just created and press the ok button to start it. You should now see your PC's directory on the left scroll to the Movie and play.

looking for a tutorial on how to setup recording to my usb stick with de phoenix2 image ........... thanx
I cannot remember exacly where the option is in gemini but should be beside where you found the unmount option. If you do decide on another image then i recommend dreamelite-133dv3-dm800-13052011-PHOENIX edition 2, providing your box is sim 201 you will find it here @ post #52
