That does not work for me :( OpenMips and AFF both had the same problem and switching resolution DID work but not so on VIX (for me)

Hi,
Loaded up very fast, looks a treat:thumbsup:
Picture quality is superb through HDMI both on my 50" HD Panny plasma and my HD Panny projector onto a 90" screen:)

Being new to all this my first impressions are very good, just need to learn and build onto what looks like a great Vix image.

Thanks to all for your efforts and support elsewhere on the forum to get me this far.

Cheers guys:thumbsup:

So guys, what do you think. Is it worth buying QUAD if you or i currently have DUO?

Mr. Mister
29-10-12, 13:16
I would say Yes.. Its defo worth it to buy the Quad..

But.. You must bare in mind.. This is a brand new box.. and its not without its problems at the moment..

But.. Also.. as we can see.. The Gigablue drivers team are working hard to improve the situation.. and have done a good job so far..

Now downloading and installing in a few minutes. I have my new Quad on OpenMips - not a 'bad' image but as smooth as VIX.
I can not wait for the VIX HD night skin (all those 1 click of a button-commands are a sweet!)

Question (out of curiosity): why is OpenVix 3.0 roughly half the size of the OpenMips?

Thank you guys!

On a side note; I am using the 2 TB HDD that I had on my Duo. Since it is 3.5" obviously it does not fit inside the GB box. :( I had to buy and Sata/usb adapter for 20 Euros - not I have all my recordings conveniently hidden in the shelf - actually it does not feel at all that I changed the receiver - except the SUPER FAST channel/menu switching. ;)

Bigger image possiably more plugins added?

Larry-G
29-10-12, 22:42
our image is so small because we continually strive to make it a user friendly as possible, while still retaining stability and overloading the image with a lot of third party plugins. This is also the reason why we removed a lot of the network plugins from the default image but retained the headers so that the user could install only those features he or she needed but would not need to go hunting for them.

I cant speak for other images but we always take into consideration the user experience before we decide what should and should not be included by default.

My first impressions on VIX 3.0 on my Quad;

- the first thing that I noticed is the-now empty lcd screen of GigaBlue. On OpenMips it was showing the detailed info (plus small picon) of the channel I was watching. Now it is empty - there are only three horizontal bars with the gigablue colors (white and blue).
- timeshifting works ok; pausing and recording
- rewinding while on timeshift works ok (on OpenMips it did not work on my box)

- network browser (when run for the first time it took a 'lot' of time - noticeably more than on OpenMips)
- playing recordings (from the attached usb HDD - old 2TB HDD of VuDuo);
- .ts, mp4, mkv files work ok
- avi files stuttering - I guess this is due to the drivers...
- Project Valerie rev.1266 works great! Actually it is using the database already in the HDD (since I had PV installed on my VuDuo).

All in all I can say that Vix 3.0 works very well on my GigaBlue.

The information displayed on the LCD is governed by a specific skin file a .xml file, This file is unique to each image and can be edited to include or remove info as needed. now i dont have this receiver so i have no idea what is or is not in that file but it is user customizable if the user so wishes.

Mr. Mister
31-10-12, 01:53
Well.. All i can say is that the info is available on the VFD on my Quad..

I dont like the picons showing on the VFD.. So i have not changed the xml.. to make them show..

I suggest try flashing the Quad again.. and the info should show on the VFD..

Hi Marty, I have been on the link, but they are talking about recording two channels at the same time.
I have new isue:
- timer recording problem, the reciever is on standby, timer records the programs and it starts etc but
when you play the recorded file, the screen i black.
- watch one channel and record another channel same time, the recorded file will stop after 1-2 min freeze.
- recording only works if you watch same channel when you recording.

NO ONE can beat VIX :)

Larry-G
31-10-12, 19:36
I dont have a quad so i'm not sure about this, but as i understand it if you record a encrypted channel while watching another encrypted channel it is the same as if your were recording two encrypted channels. Try recording a encrypted channel while leaving the other tuner on a FTA channel.

Hopefully this will be fixed in the drivers soon enough.

31-10-12, 20:20
hi Phoenix,

1. timer recording fail, add a timer (encrypted channel - fta works fine) trying to play the recorded timer filer: the screen is black. dosen't matter the
duration time 1 hour or 1 min the problem i still there.
2. record a encrypted channel and watch another encrypted or fta the result is currupted recorded file after a while 1 min the file freeze.
3. Record FTA channel watch another encrypted channel it works fine.

hope you got the point now, i tried disabling permanent timeshift, but with no result.

dreamsat
31-10-12, 20:25
Hi Phoenix,
- Encrypted recording ONLY works if you watch what you record at same time.

if you shift channel fta or encrypted simply the file will be currupt.

hope i could explain in the right way.

I have tried to install VIX now and I am ready to give up. I am not saying it is a bad image, but my experience with it is not very good so far.

First thing I noticed when I installed it is that the picture on TV was too big. Left, right, top and bottom were missing :-( It was very hard to navigate to menu of OSD that I corrected this and made GUI fit to the screen.

Next I tried to install cccam. I tried a dozen of versions, seem to install ok, but aren't working and aren't in CI softcams. Other images got cccam included (or downloadable). I didn't try with cccam from the 4shared site as I am not a member and my belief is refusing to use some third party exe to download a file (maybe I didn't find the right button to DL the normal way yet).

I got few green screens of death also when entering VIX submenu (I guess I have it in log so I can report it).

I am not some experienced user, but I installed and used Open AAF and Open Mips in a matter of 5 minutes and I am with Vix 5 hours later still with problems. I do believe this is a great image, users here also praise it, but I have to be doing something wrong.

My TV is Samsung 40C650 (for the GUI out of proportion, didn't happen with any other image so far).

I'll still try to install cccam by hand and try to find out why it istalls and isn't in the CAM panel.

PS - This is only MY experience so far. Not saying anything bad about the image or it's authors.

This is down to your TV settings and not the image.

Every TV ships with a feature called overscan activated by default ( the name can differ ), Overscan basically stretches every single pixel on your screen to 1.05% their natural size, which is a very bad thing for overall picture quality. This is why we include the OSD positioning application in the image so that you can adjust your screen size but it would be best if you could disable overscan from the TV side.

The reason why this only occurs with the ViX image is because we only produce FULL HD skins, other skins have a redundancy built in to cover the overscan, we will not do this as it means you end up loosing a good portion of your screen without even knowing.

Most images and their respective teams do not provide softcams for download directly from within the image for legal or perceived legal reasons, We do periodically review this stance and for now it is staying as is.

This could be for any number of reasons, we need you to provide as much information as possible as to what you were doing that led upto the crash along with any and all crash logs generated at that time.
you can send these directly to us byt he inbuilt logs manager feature in the image it self or create a thread on the forum and upload them there.

I'm sorry and i am by no means having a go but if it's taking you 5 hours to set the image up you'r not doing it properly.
If you need help just create a thread on the forum and you will get the help, where it is within the forum rules.



My TV is Samsung 40C650 (for the GUI out of proportion, didn't happen with any other image so far).

as i said Disable overscan. google overscan and your TV model for instructions on how to do this. bear in mind though that some TV's dont allow you to turn this feature off or the ability to do so may be very well hidden.

I installed image and I try to setup positioners. I have to set up DVB-T first because if I set motor first and then DVB-T I loose the motor settings. I think this has to do with drivers happened on other images also.

THis was the first thing I did, the ABCD system I have I accidentaly pressed the "automatic scan" and then cancel it and got the crash immediately.

I'll try to turn off the overscan on the TV first, I haven't even realised I have overscan on this TV, other images seem to compensate somehow (as you said reducing quality).

I understand about the cam. I got frustrated I couldn't install TSPanel (I understand it is 3rd party plugin and you have no responsibility about it).

The skin you have is VERY NICE! The inclusion of the Rytec plugin was a great surprise ;-) I see a lot of time and efford was put to the image and the support you have here is great, thank you.

if you can't disable overscan on your TV you can adjust the OSD ( on screen display, basically the Menu of the image ) via the image, your TV will still be in overscan mode and because of that you will still loose a certain amount of the visible picture via all viewing modes such including those not related to the receiver but you can as i said adjust the OSD of the image to compensate on the receiver at least.

no you still dont seem to understand.

Overscan affects ALL IMAGES and all TV / DVD modes, if you dont or cant turn overscan off you will still loose a portion of the visible picture no matter what your viewing be it on the receiver or via a DVD player, even terrestrial. The picture is still distorted but you just dont see as the skin is covering it up, our skin is displayed in FULL HD so it does not cover the overlap.

The only reason you see the difference is because we map our skins properly so they show in FULL HD as intended. There are a few pictures you can load and view on the TV that will show you exactly how much of the visible picture you are loosing in all modes, if i can find them i will upload them here for you to see.

as for TS-panel it's in our image feeds.

Menu> plugins> green button> settings ( i think ) you should see version 6.6 in the feeds.

THe option on my TV has the picture / screen settings ghosted so I can not enter it and turn off overcan (if there is this option inside). I am not sure why it is ghosted though.

The option in VIX to backup whole image is fantastic. How many times can I flash the image in quad flash? Or is it better to buy USB key and put image over there? I am always a little scared on flashing internal flash.

Larry-G
04-11-12, 11:57
you cant restore a full image backup from flash memory it must be loaded as a standard image is from a USB stick. I keep a USB stick permanently in the rear of my receivers to save such things as full image and settings backups to amongst other things. Generally a 4GB stick should be more than sufficient although i also use several 16 GB sticks for this purpose too.

Is this a stable update, because my image info is showing 2012-10-27 Version 3.0 and it finds no updates, also is there a bug on Samba setup?

Larry-G

To be honest i really would not place too much stock on unstable Vs stable. just because a image is labeled as unstable does not necessarily mean that there is something wrong with it, infact we set ALL images as unstable by default, until we are happy otherwise.

The current online version is set as unstable as it was primarily a bugfix release and we did not have much time to test it's functions. Just be sure to make regular backups so if things do go wrong you can flash back to a earlier working image in under 5 minutes.

p.s the current build online is 430.

Hello guys,

Would it be possible to add the right xml file within the OpenVix image so we can have the picons also displayed within the GB QUAD LCD screen as per this post?

I think we will all be happy to "use" the LCD color screen with picons as letters are too small so picons could be easier to see which channel is on

thanks

I don't know you guys but myself from were I seat, I can't see anything currently on what is being displayed.

Therefore what could be nice is to have a parameter so people can decide rather to have the current screen or just the picon displayed within the LCD as a replacement? (maybe for the beginning we can use normal picons and just re-size them to fit in the screen without the need to change their format if different?)

I don't know if this is something we can do "easily" or it's tight to GB

Hi, i've installed the last release of the openvix; I can't scan for dtt channel, on the lcd display i can read the message "no service" while searching and automatic scanning stay on 0%. I've tried manual scanning over some frequencies with 0 channels found results.
In the informations panel i can see all 4 tuners, and they are properly configurated to dvb-t service.

What I have to do to make it works?
Thanks...

First of all i have to say i`m very pleased with the vix images.

I`m new at using the vix image since i bought the gigablue quad a week ago.

Nothing negative to say so far.

As english is not my native language i often use subtitles for the sky channels, makes it easier to follow the programs.
This fails when i watch recordings from sky. When i add subtitles, some text is missing and other text remains on the screen and disappears after a while making it difficult to follow what`s being said.

Is there a possibility to have a look at this in the future please ? It would be a great help for me if this is being fixed.

thnx alot.
