    Vix's Zeus release!




    Proudly introduces a brand new ViX image for all OpenViX supported receivers.



    OpenViX Zeus requires a full reflash. You cannot update from OpenViX 3.0 or use a settings backup from any image prior to OpenViX Zeus. We have coded it so that you can't use a backup from an earlier image as it will cause issues if you do.


    So what is different in OpenViX Zeus then ?

    The main difference is core of the image or the OE (Open Embedded); this has undergone a lot of changes, updates and fixes. As a user you should not notice any differences between OpenViX 3.0 and OpenViX Zeus. (i.e. there are no real functional differences. But as the last release is now over 3 months ago, several updates have been implemented).

    Could be because much is the same as vix 3.0 only splash is new and a few changes in the menu structure i noticed so far but colours look brighter too.

    To be honest, we tend to let the image speak for it self. you just cant encapsulated all the work that goes into the image in a few screen shots.

    Give it a try and see if its the one for you.

    Finally Will give this a try later on today. Hopefully transcoding now works?

    So what's the story behind the name 'Zeus' then?

    Is it a good idea adding the quad plus image if the box hasn't been released yet? It may get confused with the original quad and cause someone some heartache.

    Thanks to all involved with the image for all the hours of hard work. Looking forward to trying this out over the weekend.

    providing users can read simple instructions the same as with the other gigablue HD Plus models, there should not be a problem.
