    Red light or software.

    Have a vu+duo haven't been used for over a year, flashed bootloader and vix 166 all works ok except when i switch off at night i have to use the switch at back to start it in morning. There is no red light and can switch on and off all day with out any problems. Is this showing signs of of the red light problem or software problem.

    I'm hopeful it will cure your issue, do you have ABM and CrossEPG to scan in a morning? When you say switching off at night, I hope you mean putting into standby mode yeah?
