A friend of mine has a vu duo (genuine) running vix 3.0 the problem is that when he turns it off at the mains and then switches it back on it gets stuck on a boot loop on the blue start up page with the vix spinning he has reflashed it a few times but the same thing happens every time he tried BH image and it was fine and booted no problem so put vix back on and again once the power was turned off it would get stuck in a bootloop i cant see it being the image so i was wondering is it a hardware problem or a software problem maybe a missing file not sure any advise would be greatly appreciated Thanks

This will most likely be something to do with how you mate is setting up the receiver if its going into a crash loop. What is he installing?

I figured it. I was using an old build. It was from downloads section in the forum.

Now using the one from vixdownloads.co.uk

The builds from the download server are all numbered , just pick the latest one and you should be fine.

I had exactly the same problem until tonight. I narrowed it down to Cccam, if i had it to start on bootup the box would do exactly this, stick at splash screen and VIX would spin in corner and get stuck in what seemed a loop and i would have to flash the Duo again to get it up and running. If i didnt set Cccam to boot on startup it would boot fine and i could restart the box over and over without it getting stuck.

In the end I searched the forum and found out that the build i was using (3.0.204) was ancient and came accross this section where you can download the latest stable releases: http://www.world-of-satellite.com/enigma2/openvix/index.php?dir=Vu%2BDuo/

Just download the latest one and flash via USB - worked for me! :thumbsup:
