primarily because we only support genuine hardware and none of the team have any units to test the image on.

That said we did produce a small run of ViX 2.3 DM images but for the above reasons they were never released, now there deleted.

without the team having hardware to test the image on first no it's never going to happen, and we would not even consider releasing a image that we have not even tried our selves first, this is the exact same for a few other boxes too such as the gigablue solo.

as for dreamboxuk that's rossi's image and he has discontinued it.

Powerboard VX still has emus on the download/plugin server from the blue button.

It only supports genuine DM800se and Ferrari SIM boxes. No support for the SIM2.01.

Its a good solid image that works well.

Google Powerboard VX, You should find it.

I have it on my Gigablue 800 HD Solo, its a cracking image which is very stable indeed. It appears to be more like OpenMIPS rather than OpenPli if i'm honest :thumbsup:

If anyone's interested the closest image to VIX for the DM series is definitely OpenATV (used to be Open AAF) - I installed it on my DM800HD and am very impressed. As they're part of the OE-Alliance they've obviously taken a great deal of the look and feel of the VIX image - including OnDemand, AutoBouquetMaker, the Graphical EPG etc. - the only plugin I needed to install was CrossEPG (can't think why it isn't installed by default).

There are only a couple of drawbacks - the Image Backup doesn't work (as it's coded for boxes which update from USB, not .nfi files) and also I can't get my Nova-T DTT stick working. However, I can't get the DTT working in ANY new image (either OE2.0 or OpenPli3.0) on this box - and I've tried a few...

So - if you want VIX on a Dreambox , try it out...

That's were you're wrong: the OE-alliance shares the Open Embedded (build environment) and several plugins. But Enigma2 (i.e. the user interface) is a development of each team, without any involvement of other teams.

My mistake then - but it is VERY similar to VIX, compared to DM800 images from other teams (and I've probably tried 20+ different images in the last couple of years...)

Just an update for anyone interested - both the Image Backup and DTT are now working - great image!
