    No as the process of flashing the image has wiped the flash where those files were stored. This also brings us back to why the video output died with ViX and the latest driver's ?, because BH does not have those drivers installed as standard yet.

    Is the unit genuine or a clone ?. Please be truthful so as not to waste our or your time.

    Hi guys,
    i have a VU+ Solo operating the OpenPli 3.1.1v. I made the mistake to update the software and now i have nothing in my TV set. I have tried all the above methods to erase it, flash it but with out any success. The latest was the openvix-3.0.204-vusolo_usb file with the USB method but when the update finished there is only Pitch black and No Signal on the TV set.
    No HDD connected during the procedure, only the Ethernet cable.
    Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thank you

    Go back to the seller and demand your money back if you paid Gordon it as an original.

    What next?

    New to vu+,
    .....though not to flashing, I have used multi sat before the intoduction of Murdock.
    My query realates to this new box. I was informed that the box had been flashed but what do I do next?
    With my old Technomate it was flashed to convert a channel to include clines or nlines. How do I include
    these lines with the vu+? Also, how do I check if it has been flashed?

    Cheers
