VIX 3.0 upgrade has chuffed my dads box

[Ghostleader]

My dad was HEAVY moaning about his epg not working any more, long story short, usb flashed the reciever with Vix 3.0 now the heep of guff gets stuck on the boot up screen if I tried to mount his 16Gb usb stick, after FOUR flashes all in I left last night with the box just working and no more (Gave up on trying to have his previously mounted fine usb stick working), fone call this morning, the box is stuck on the boot up screen again! (EPG update has no doubt chuffed it this time), raging with this!!

maybe wrong but does the boot loader need updating

[mickyblueys]

Vix build number?
What epg sources you using?

Sorry to say but it's more likely you that chuffed up your dads box rather than Vix.

What build did you flash?
What build as previously on the box?
Did you flash the current bootloader?

Extract then flash the same way as you would an image (delete the image vuplus folder from your usb stick first as the boot loader update is also called vuplus) then flash in the same method as for an image update should only take a few seconds then reinstall vix 3.0 hope this helps

Im away from the unit at the mo, but the box was on 2.4 (Which is what mine is on with no crashes for what must be a year), I downloaded Vix 3 from here and after flashing I checked for "online updates" which the box returned with "Nothing to update", the box seems fine after this, all I done last night was install the Catseye channel list, all was still fine. Its just went wrong during sleep last night.

You might be right Judge but hes moaning was doing ma t*ts in buddy, he should of stuck with a closed source box like a Technomate 5402, I'd long since gave up on the Crosspeg auto updating at night lol

maybe buy him a cheap closed source box so?
Crosspeg updates in my house, in my mothers house, in my sisters house... every night without fail.
What settings and sources are you using?

I currently have 6 receivers all running with CrossEPG as their EPG source and none of them ever misses a beat but for very rare occasions, when that happens it's usually a 1 minute fix and away you go again.

Lol, He'd moan about the lack of program details then!, Open EPG download from Astra, the top one, saved to mounted usb, mines would jam half way thru the process once a week or so, wake up to the bloody radio screen and the VIX spinner doing its merry dance lol

Mannual EPG download never crashed to be totally fair to all the coders etc, just a problem I counldnt be bothered "breaking" other things over. Blue button update method will do me! ImDB has long since bit the bullet as well on mine on 2.4 lol, aw well!

[Larry-G]

well it is fair to say that ViX 2.4 was long since abandoned and it is not updated any longer, so when things do break we cant issues fixes for this image.
