Ok slight update.
Basically after about half hour i lost all channels just a black screen, could access EPG and menu etc but no picture.
Had to reflash the image which after about 15 agonizing minutes finally came back on.
Now im worried to play around anymore. Is this likely to happen again with more detrimental/permanent effect ? Think ill sleep on it tonight just gratefull to have it working again...Any advice as normal gratefully received. Cheers
Thanks Cazuela that worked deleted the folders and extracted straight to USB .
Just chose the 1st image i came across blackhole 2.0.2 . Having a little play around with it now. Any pointers whats good on this image ??
Anyway many thanks for all the help looks like ive got the basics started :}} Cheers
No but ill try and get a lend of one to try again .. Thanks
Hi there again unfortunately im back.
I've backed everything up and now trying to flash a image . Somethings not going right ill explain what ive done so far:
Followed guide step by step from this forum:
Format you memory stick on you PC FAT32.
2. Create a directory in called vuplus.
3. Within the the vuplus directory create another folder called duo.
4. Unzip the USB upgrade files into that directory.
5. Power off your VU+ Duo.
6. Insert memory stick into front USB slot.
7. Power on your VU+ Duo and follow the on screen instruction
Everything's ok until last step basically nothing happens after i power box back on. Sometimes it says reading USB sometimes not. Tried it so many times last night with different images i wasn't allowed to download any more.
The files inside the duo folder on USB at moment are :
boot_cfe_auto.jffs2
kernel_cfe_auto.bin
root_cfe_auto.jffs2
Obviously going wrong somewhere but where ?? Any help please ??? Thanks
Thanks a lot for the advice glad i asked i nearly started messing about without backing anything up. That will be the 1st thing ill do then ill do some of reading up and have a play around .. Sounds fun any problems ill report back.. Thanks again.
Hello
Introduced myself last week . Received advice on this forum to buy VU + Duo which i did and very happy with choice. Luckily my local dealer installed cccam and channels etc so all i had to do was plug box in and it was all working. I only have dish pointed to 28.2 so only UK channels.
I have been reading the forums and seems i can improve my box with different stuff installed by USB like vix, blackhole images ,new EPG etc .. Has anyone any advice for a good starting point ? Please bear in mind im a complete novice.
Many thanks Dom
Ok pretty much a no brainer just brought the VU + Duo as suggested. feel happy with my choice thanks for the help.
Thanks for detailed reply much appreciated. Looking likely ill splash that little bit more on the VU + Double sounds the business. A local supplier is trying to flog me a SAB Unix Triple does anyone know anything about these ? Coming in at €180 here in Holland. Thanks
Thanks for the heads up el pirate didnt mean to be rude or presumptuous . Will introduce myself in introduction forum.
Cheers Dom
Hi All
New to this getting rid of my *** box which is just being used for free view. I am looking at getting a Linux reciever. Im hoping to get a twin receiver HD , with PVR for somewhere around 200 pounds. Is this feasible without looking at clones ? If so which one would be recommended ?
Thanks in advance,
Dominic
