Help - Can't Seem to Update VIX

[siross]

Hi guys,

I'm currently on 3.0 build 473

I originally tried to update the software from the menu set up but it appears my build is now too old and it just states that the feeds are down for maintenance.

So I've downloaded 3.0 build 649 from here (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/enigma2/openvix/index.php?dir=Vu%2BDuo/) and put it onto my fat32 formatted usb drive as per advice here (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?3-How-to-flash-a-VU-Duo-using-a-USB-stick7) but all that happens is reads the USB then says "starting" and then comes straight back on to normal TV. I've checked and I'm still on 3.0 473.

Am I doing something wrong here?

Edit: Do I need to update the bootloader? If so which one? There is only 1 from back in May 2012 here (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/enigma2/openvix/index.php?dir=Bootloaders/Vu%2BDuo/)

Thanks in advance,

Si

Thats far too old a image to be updated online due to significant changes made in the image recently.

go to www.openvix.co.uk and download the very latest stable image from there to flash to the receiver.

Hi pal, that's where I got the image I'm trying to install. I downloaded the latest 3.0.649

Didn't work though...

Cheers,

Simon

if it's bypassing strait to the image already on the receiver try another USB stick and no if you are using ViX 3.0 already you dont need a bootloader update.
