Vu+ Duo2 XBMC

[s2tephen]

Hi
I have a Vu+ Duo2 receiver and a pc in living room and I am trying to stream over network to XBMC.
Software Open Vix 3.0 742
I am putting in the correct I/P address bouquets PVR addins in etc into XBMC but the Vu+ is refusing to stream to it.
I also have a DM 800se with exactly the same config running OpenPli and it works brill.

Has the Vu+ or OpenVix software a problem, I do not think the problem is with XBMC.

I have here several VU-boxes, all running ViX, and they work fine in XMBC on my PC. For that purpose I use the VU-PVR in XMBC. See

I did an online update recently and it broke my XBMC streaming to my bedroom from my quad.

I got it working again by checking the settings on the open webif plugin and the authentication was set to yes. XBMC couldn't authenticate with a blank password so it wouldn't work. Setting it to no got the streaming working again.

Hi, i have a vu+ and I am trying to stream tv channels on my xbmc (on my rasberry pi ).

I am following all the tutorials I am finding. thus i am enabling live tv, and adding an the VU+/enigma addon where I am configuring the ip address of my vu+ receiver and giving the the username and password (of the root). xbmc is reading and saving the channel list into the folder where i have specified (i can also locate the xml file with the channel list).

however when i open Live Tv > tv Channels, nothing opens and instead the message "No PVR clients have been started yet..." is being displayed. I tried to search the solution to the problem on many forums but to no success.

mind you also tried to add the tv channels by adding a network location using tuxbox but when i tried it, xmbc sort of freezed for a minute and then displayed a message that "xmbc could not connect to the specified network location", but I am sure that i have given the correct ip address and also when it sort of tries to access the ip address i noticed that on my tv where i have my vu+ connected it sort of displays a "processing" icon - so the message is quite confusing in this case.

I do not know whether i should initialize or install a plugin/service on vu+ (as well because this is nowhere indicated) ...hope someone can help about this issue.
