a guide to flashing, as tried from another site, put on usb stick, rebooted was not picked up to flash?

you sometimes need to try several different USB stick when flashing images as the receivers can be very picky in which ones they will allow you to flash them with.

as a general rule always format the stick to FAT32 first then go from there depending on your receiver brand as the Vu and Xtrend receivers have slightly different procedures to flash them.

well tried front and rear back, loaded the et9200 folder, also without folder and just the bin file and still nothing

Should be the 'et9x00' folder.

sorry i dont have a Xtrend so i dont tend to keep upto date with procedures required to flash them etc, but just follow the advice given by rob and you will be ok.

[Rob van der Does]

Should be the 'et9x00' folder.

The name of the folder has been changed since the last bootloader, so use 'et9x00' now.

tried 2 diff usb sticks as well as a usb drive from ps3 and nothing

also :

If marked un-stable is doesn't necessarily mean that the latest build/update is unusable, it could be that we've updated some fixes or added un-tested features. If you would like to test un-stable updates you will need to turn them on. Menu > Setup > System > Online update > Set allow un-stable updates to yes.

i also went to allow the updates under menu, but nothing listed there?

[Mr. Mister]

Make sure you have your usb stick formatted in FAT32

then put the folder called et9x00 onto it

Is there a place on the forum that explains what the latest open vix download has fixed/changed?

[Delagroov]

Within the Vix softeware update you can see changelog before updating.

And then you can decide to update or not

[Larry-G]

if you click on any of the release threads from the ViX support centre button at the top of the forum you will see that i update them every time a release is made with a full changelog.

[garyblas]

just downloaded vix 2.4 v124 but cant see any explanation?

[Larry-G]

when you do a online update

Blue button> ViX> software update, you are given several options. 1. shows you a full changelog of the updated image 2. updates the image etc.

now if you missed that as i said go to any of the release threads for the ViX 2.4 image and you will see that i posted a full changelog for every image no less than 2 hrs ago.

for example here
