    I saw a picture of a 'globe' with a bit of text. This then stayed unchanged for a while.
    With the VIX image should the cogs be moving because mine do not move.

    Moved to the correct section

    When you say cogs I'm assuming you mean these in the bootlogo: -



    No they are static, part of the bootlogo.

    Sounds like your flashing the image OK, but not leaving enough time for it to start fully and go into the startupwizard. After flashing leave for a few mins and let it do its stuff on reboot

    It take a couple of mins to get to the startup wizard, you need to have patience and leave it to boot. The next screen that will appear is this: -



    After the above you will get the startup wizard

    I tried your advice but after 20 minutes nothing had happened. In desperation I tried taking out the ethernet cable and I got to the wizard. I think the problem was that I had tried to change the router to give the Vu a fixed IP address but it was not set properly so this was causing a conflict.

    Just got my Vu+ Duo yesterday and i too had problems flashing image with usb. It would flash. While flashing my tv screen was blank (connected via HDMI) so was relying on duo screen (maybe thats standard) when finished, id remove usb and power off/on at back switch. When rebooting i would get as far as starting enigma 2 and freeze. Tried a few times and gave up on usb. Flashed fine with serial cable.

    Just like to know what i was doing wrong with usb flash?

    Great image btw. Had been used to dream elite on dreambox. After a few hours i much prefer VIX. Well done guys...
    One niggle i have, the info button (coloured far left, cannot remember colour, red i think) when i press this for info, the info stays until i press exit. It would be nice if it timed out or a second press of coloured button removed info. Maybe this function is there but i have not found it yet. Still on learning curve...
