View Full Version : advice with updating
I am not the most unto date with this box
All is working well, but i feel i should update the box
I am running VIX image on my box
Going through the menus I see the following information
Last update 2013-10-16
Version 3
Kernel 3.3.8
Build 753
Drivers 2013-09-16
I tried to update via the box
The message I got was " feeds are down for maintenance "
I tried to look at new plugins and the message was the same "feeds are down for maintenance "
Any advice on wether to update or leave alone what works would be appreciated
thanks in advance

Completely up to you, but the online updates & plugin feeds wont be restored for such an old image.
IMO, ViX builds have improved massivly since & I would update.
Latest images on http://openvix.co.uk
Thanks, I have downloaded the latest openvix apollo .24
put it on a memory stick and now i shall go through the forum how to update.
I pressume i go straight to the latest and don't need to do every update
thanks for all you help judge
I am reading that I need to do a new flash, I have found the instruction online for this process
Is the apollo 24 the new flash, I should I be looking for something else
I have done a backup in VIX/backup manager
with this back up my settings?
Images and full instructions on how to flash the image can be found on www.openvix.co.uk (http://www.openvix.co.uk), there is also a ViX Manual there too, that may be helpful.
I got the tutorial and I am still struggling
I am using a mac, I took 2 different USB sticks
re formated to exfat
put on the download file apollo 24 in and out of the folder labeled solo2
turned off the box via switch, entered the USB stick and turned on the solo2
but it just keeps rebooting not updating
any ideas??

Flash drive must be fat32, not exfat.
I can not see a option to format to fat32 on my back format, program, so i shall google this.
thanks for the advice
I'm not sure if a 3.x build can use the image manager to couch flash Apollo build 024, but maybe worth a try.
Copy the compressed image to /media/hdd/imagebackups/
Then use blue button -> ViX -> Image Manager & blue button to restore the image.
