    Vu+Duo2 Config

    Hi,
    I am about to jump in and update my Vu+ Duo to a new Duo2. What I would like to know is can I use my backup settings from the old box and use on the new box. I have spent many hours setting up my BH image with my own settings, Picons etc. I realise it will come with the latest BH image but does this include e.g. Catseye E2 or Vhannibal E2 settings pre loaded? These are fine but require a lot of editing to filter out all the none working channels + I can only get 28.2E to 30.0W so a lot of sats not required hence I now have developed my own settings (approx 10,000 channels). If possible to use old settings great if not no problem I will have to start again.

    you can backup your custom bouquets using Dremabox edit or any similar bouquet management tool.

    Great replies, this will save a lot of time I do not have. I have been putting off getting a Duo2 for the last 2 months because of the time involved setting up.
    Need to get the plastic out.
    Cheers guys.

    If you're restoring settings from another box, remember settings like machine name, IP address... will also be restored, so could cause problems on your network.
    A new box, I'd set-up from scratch, when you get used to doing it, it really shouldn't take that long.
