    First of all i would never take money from someone who is i need my friend :) but thanks for the offer


    Second is nothing i can do with teamview since we have no network on the Reciver.

    But i have attached an OpenPli image redy to force flash.


    Just unpack to your formated usbstick "win32" and try to flash with this image.

    If this dont work then something is wrong with the flash memory and you need hands on help to fix that

    I hope this will help you

    Ok looks fine


    So this is mu suggestions


    1. Test another USB Stick that never has been used in a Linux invirement

    2. remove all other devices like HDD and usb devices

    3. Put the usbstick in to machine and when message arrive in screen push the standby button on the reciver

    4. If lucky the flashing starts

    5. After new boorloader is in the flash let the box reboot, if lucky its booting up an image.

    6 If no image then reflash with orginal image

    7. If still not flashing try flashing with openPli image


    When format it very important that you check format settings like in the picture. My is in Norwegian but i added English text.

    This is very very important that this settings are like in picture for usb stick to work as flash tool

    And of couse that folders are /vuplus/vuultimo4k/ flashfiles but if you extraxct flashfiles from orginal then folders are correct.


    Hope this helps

    Yes but did you first flash the new bootloader

    After bootloader is flashed turn of and flash with Orginal image with pressing standby button when its blinking

    If there is no "forcefile" add the "force.update" file to orginal image for flashing

    No it should be there allredy


    And i strongly recommend that you reflash with Vu+ original image first before you flash any other image just to bring life in to your stb


    Really hope you can bring back life to your stb

    Hade the same problem on my brand new Vu+ Uno4Kse after flashing was interuped by power loss in the house

    to fix it I found a empty file named "noforce" on my usb stick

    I changed the name to "force" then flashing worked and i got life back in to my stb :)

    If there are no file named "noforce" just add an empty file named "force" and your Vu+ will flash any image without checking thats the right image.

    But be careful so you now you have image for your stb


    I also have experince that old and some new usb sticks sometimes need to be proper formated to work

    And if you have backup image on your hdd that also can interfer with flashing.


    To setup your usb stick proper download HP format usb stick toole from here: https://filehippo.com/download…disk_storage_format_tool/


    Unpack image files to stick and try to reflash.


    If there is a old image in your stb remove all hardware like HDD and wifi adapters when flashing.

    Setup and then turn off put in all devices when new image is in place and install them.


    Hope this fix your problem

    Its for those who have a common interface module and a subscription card and want to use that in the enigma2 based reciver like Dreambox, Vu+ and others. Since CI+ module is a cardparing system its need a certified device to be used. CI+ helper emulate that so you can use it on non certified devices.

    You have many good points but still there have to be the old drivers for CI+ to work and in the first release from Vu+ to 4K recivers those drivers where there. Like BlackHole they have removed them now in the latest build and also removed older Images from there servers.


    With this in mind i dont now how other image builders go forward. But the PLI team have public stated that they are not interested in support of

    CI+ in any way even if there where closed legal drivers to add to there image. They belive in 100% open source and for that we have to respect them.



    There is support for some 4K recivers but then they have to use the old drivers. With new drivers the Plugin is blocked out.

    You are right that drivers are provided by manufactor. There was though a loophole on the first set of drivers that should have been closed but

    some of them where open so therfor Image builders could add there own hacked drivers. What CI+ helper does is to exploit this loophole.


    But lately CI+ has been warning image makers that they will take legal action if they dont replace those first drivers.

    So Team Blackhole and Open Pli has removed them from later image builds. But older recivers like Vu+ Solo2

    still have access to older build images and therefor it can work for some and newer recivers like Vu+Uno4Kse dont have

    older images so therfor it want work on those recivers.


    And older images really dont need CI+ Helper they work with CI+ mudules as they are and then you have images like OpenATV who

    Hade CI+ helper in the core build to support as many system as possible.


    So until someone smartguy can hack the drivers for Arm recivers there will be no CI+ working in OpenPli 4K

    To answer your question simply there is no supporting DVB drivers in OpenPli and no hacked SSL sertificate the boxbranding is just to

    identify that you use a box and image that contains those 2 illegal elements ;)

    Works very good on 4k. Just install on a arm recevier a mipsel one then ftp to /user/bin the cccam for arm. Dont ask around how to for different images. Pick up the one mipsel for Yr image and simply change bin. All done.

    Instead of telling newbeginners that they cant ask questions for their images would it jus be better to help?

    Maybe create a thread where we all share the loaction of files for all images.


    Like this


    BlackHole and OpenBlackhole file location is:


    /usr/bin/ for cccam bin file/arm file needs chmode 755

    /usr/camscript/ for scriptfile .sh file needs chmode 755

    /etc/ for cccam.cfg


    /usr/bin/ for oscam bin/arm files need chmode 755

    /usr/camscript/ scriptfile.sh file needs chmode 755

    /etc/tuxbox/config/ for oscam config files


    /usr/bin/ for mgcamd bin/arm file needs chmode 755

    /usr/camscript/ scriptfile.sh file needs chmode 755

    /usr/keys/ for configfiles


    So if everybody who has a diffrent working image maybe can share this basic info for new beginners we accully could be of help.

    Virtuell Private Network history.


    I am so old so I was here when networking and Internet first hit us with dial up modems.

    So what we have is Lan "Local area Network" and Wan "Wide are network"


    When we are in the Lan we use private network ipadresses like 192.168.1.10 and those and since we are in an Lan we can have the same

    adress in several networks.


    But as soon as we need to contact a Wan network we need an public Ipadress and they are all uniq.


    With the old Dialup we cold connect to other private networks with an phonecall to an Dialup server that provided us with loggins and ipadress.

    This is what VPN emulate over wan connection. But now its your computer or other divice that makes an IP dialup to an VPN server

    that recives your call and provide you with loggins and ipadress.


    But here comes the catch.... Yes your traffic to the server will be hidden and crypted but the traffic from the VPN server out on the Internet will not be.

    And if you think that some company will be responcible for illegal activity on your behalf well then you need to re think.


    As long as the torrent download server is on the Internet and not behind the same private network as the VPN server there will allways be a way

    for the athority to trace back your activity, and when people starts to bundle up to one place, well then it would be even more easy to make a big

    catch of illegal use.


    In my opinion the popping up of VPN servers all over the world is just a scam to earn money on people who is scared and do illegal stuff on the net.


    Only time that VPN is 100% secure is when used as piont to point connection betwen two host in private networking where all host are inside

    that network.

    I recomend the Vu+ Solo2 its a good fast stable reciver for a good price. Install OpenBlackhole in the flash and mount a usb stick

    Then use OpenMultiboot and test your way trough images. There are many good images for this reciver.

    It also have internal HDD several usb ports, 2 Common interface and 2 softcam slots

    There are also several images for this reciver with support for CI+ still out there


    4K reciver there is is only one choice, go for the Vu+Uno4kSE but as written above no 4K channels to watch about the free channels and some demo

    Yes there is Viasat UltraHD and a Canal+ UHD but none of them sends 24/7



    Use your money on an HD reciver for now and the 3 choices above is very good budget recivers
