    .... well my guess would be nothing exciting, apart from the addition of a couple of new boxes, which might excite people who've got them.

    Is that all Abu.

    Was hoping it would be able to make dinner. Wash the dishes and do my yearly tax returns.

    If I could have anything practical in new vix it would be when adding a recording via EPG on a future day it would stay on the furire day Rather than jumping back to the current event on the EPG.

    well, 5 is out now, and abu's prediction seems to be the closest one :-)
    what concerns me most is, that there is still no couch flashing for arm boxes. haven't done usb flashing in years...
    i understand that arm boxes have different type of flash chips... and i understand that it is probably quite some work to implement this.
    but this would be my strongest wish for future images.

    ... looking forward to trying this new build ... can I ask if the Devices issue has been resolved??? I used to be able to use my wireless Logitech K400 keyboard when using Chromium on my Duo 2 ... but this feature has not been working on my Ultimo 4K ...

    I know its working on Original VU+ based images (BH etc.) I was told it was an issue for OE builds ...?

    Thanks,
    Nitemare

    Couch Flashing could potentially damage the ARM receivers, thus why ViX have took the option to remove this feature to protect you guys/gals (the users).
    I am using this feature, with a modified version of IM, which I won't be sharing (sorry guys/gals) but its at my risk and I will have to accept the consequences this may cause.
