    Cool Recommended plugins for Solo 2

    Bought a Solo 2 last week & am very impressed so far, a big improvement on the duo which I also own. Just wondered which plugins people use on Openvix image, what are the most popular/recommended plugins? Any new plugins exclusively for the Solo 2? Never really took interest in them until now. The only one which I have tried is the 'Movie Browser' plugin as it has been mentioned in a previous post, so far very impressive. Not sure if this is the best place to mention but in terms of mkv file playback the Solo 2 certainly seems smoother than the duo, it's just a shame that you can't rewind/fast forward mkv's with the default video player. This was understandable with the duo as it only had a 400mhz processor however the Solo 2 has a far superior spec with a 1.3ghz dual core cpu. Maybe this will be resolved with a future image? Are there any media player plugins which can resolve this issue? Big thanks to the Openvix team for all their hard work.

    the type off box you are using shouldn't really affect if you can rewind an mkv file. I'm using a duo and I have several mkv which I can rewind/ fast forward.

    It comes down to how you're mkv's were compiled. Remember mkv is only a container.

    Ok which format would you suggest I convert the files to? Would like to keep the audio as it is. I don't have any issues with rewinding/forwarding on my Samsung smart tv.

    I would try and use handbrake to recode them.
