View Full Version : Openvix hd
just installed Openvix HD Apollo 70 on to my Duo2 and I have to say, it is Rather good and I am so far very Impressed with it well done Rossie
I still need to install my few plugins that I use as feeds where down when I Installed and I am still finding my way round it as I normally use Vix-Night-HD, and not sure if you can change the skin, not fussed on light Blue as I support Man U :rolleyes::eek: :D but I can live with and I have to say that it looks rather good to be Honest
any way so far so good and a nice edition to the VIX Family :thumbsup::beer_toast:
Hi can you install Apollo HD as an update or must it be a fresh install and can you use backed up settings Thanks
Hello yes you can install it as an update, that's what I did from Apollo 64 and it loaded in as normal,although I will have to update my plugins later as the feeds are down at the moment but that should be easy enough to do and every thing seems to be working fine :)
I forgot to mention that my back up of Apollo 64 worked as normal and I still have all my settings from my previous updates apart from my plugins but I only use the weather and on demand plugins any way
Which is the differencies between the two images? If i'm using a normal image can i update online to an hd image?
Thanks for the heads up appreciated

at the moment I think that this new image is only available for the Gigablue Quad / Quad plus and the VU Duo2 and Solo2 Receivers but I might be wrong
Thanks for the heads up appreciated
no probs mate glad to be of help :)
Afternoon All
Cn I ask if this latest version is available for Vu+ Solo2 as I just read what nsw9154 just wrote
"this new image is only available for the Gigablue Quad / Quad plus and the VU Duo2 and Solo2 Receivers but I might be wrong" is any forum member able to confirm if its possible to upgrade this latest image?
Regards
John.
Yes its been released for those boxes.
Ok, i've a solo2

Thanks
Vu have finally updated to allow full use of the 1080 frame buffer needed for rossi's skin. So hopefully it won't be too long before you see the OpenViX HD images for the Vu+ receivers.

As I said Vu have finally allowed full use of the 1080 frame buffer allowing the ViX HD image to be built for this machine.
Look here for proof of that.

Excellent work Rossi. :thumbsup: Please add a light grey one to your list as well. Only cos I have been using ViX Day. Excellent work tho buddy, fantastic skin. :p
Hi All
Just updated to image 70 (VU+Solo2) and cannot see any difference in the skin settings, is there another step I have to take in order to make the HD skin active (in the Image information screen I see a text scrip that says Pli-Full-HD Image by.....any suggestions in obtaining the new HD skin
Kind Regards
John

Do a blue button, ViX and image manager, yellow button and chose the top image that says 'openvixhd-Apollo.070xxxxxx' then green button to download then exit one and restore (blue button) on image you have just downloaded. You can restore from a saved backup. :D
The Pli-HD skin is a direct rip off from a skin made by Delagroov (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/member.php?6228-Delagroov). without even mentioning him in the credits, it's also not a full HD skin, currently the only skin that does take full advantage of the 1080 framebuffer is the YouViX skin in the ViX HD image (maybe the Red HD skin too but I could be wrong about that).
Andy,
Thanks for your assistance, I might have found it, I went into the section called plugins and activated the command to download it was then that I saw the new HD Plugin, I think I might have found it ....hopefully

Are you actually using the ViX HD image or the standard ViX image ?, because the ViX HD image has the full 1080 YouViX skin set as standard.
john you need to re-flash openvixhd for the hd stuff.
Andy, thank you so much for the clear instructions that you kindly listed absolutely happy to report that it all worked perfectly my mistake was that when I was looking at the back up files the latest image 70 was not listed at the last update it was located with the five backups that I had stored.
Well what can I say, this skin is awesome really love it and so I have to say a big, big thumbs up to the developer/development team for what I would consider the nicest looking skin I have ever seen the blue is amazing on my Pioneer Kuro, thank you Andy/Pheonix and the whole community

I dont deserve any thanks here mate, I am just a crash test monkey, who helps out on the forum and creates the odd tutorial. The devs such as Andy blac, Rossi, Rob, Huevos, Mcquaim, etc etc etc deserve all the thanks here.
Not me.
Hi Rossi2000 it did the re-flash already so I believe its all correct and running, I just cannot believe how beautiful it looks, such an amazing update and great to look at. So happy with the complete set up.:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Regards
John
Am all fraggled up on how good the skin is on my telly.
Been using it for couple of months and it's great.
just re-flashed to the new HD image, it's the dogs dangly bits, thanks for the work that went into it:thumbsup:
What about the other vu + receivers?
I have a vu + uno.
No only the latest generation vus like the solo2, duo2 and solo se
how about the techonmates?
TM dont have the framebuffer enabled. You could file a bug report.to them and ask them to add support.
Today I installed openvix on vu+ uno. It is awesome. I have one challenge and it is that I only have 13 mb flash memory. It means I can only install few plugins. Is there any chance to get more free flash memory?
Thanks
Are Miracleboxs Twin premiums getting a HD version?
Are Miracleboxs Twin premiums getting a HD version?
not unless their manufacturer enables 1080 frame buffer support in their drivers.
Just done a fresh reflash to apollo 80 and fair play it looks modern and slick may take a little time to get used to. Well done vix team.:thumbsup:

The UNO is a troublesome box; it is really low on flash. Here flash is always 99% taken.
Make sure not to install Samba, as that's a major flash eater. Also picons to USB helps a bit.
And of course only install what you really need.

I believe the manufacturers are working on adding support

Vix HD image = Excellent. Thanks Rossi.
Please could the see-through EPG option be a tad less transparent? Could options for the % transparency be added?
Anyway, even the smallest of comments makes me feel that we're all looking the proverbial Gift Horse in the mouth.
Excellent work. Keep it coming :)

if what im working on now works out ok all the plugins will be added back.
I need to tweak it looking at that pic :-) why are your times displayed like that?
It might be because i had just put it in to time shift to show the time bar to post a screen grab, here are a couple that show it off better and I love it as I use Time Shift a lot did I say THANK YOU :D:cool: :p

most well known manufacturers have added or are in the process of adding support.

yes it was i used my settings backup from Apollo 64 and its running fine for me :D
Thanks for the info rossi cant wait well done
Rossi,
Loving the skin mate, great job.
Is there anyway on the EPG page the grey colored writing in the next program section could be made to stand out a bit more?
It seems clearer on the screengrab, than from a distance actually viewing on the tv. Hope this makes sense buddy.
Keep up the great work mate, much appreciated!:thumbsup:

Such a fantastic Skin. Stuppppeeennnnddddooouuuusssss!! :thumbsup:
Hello All,
Any ideas if this is going to get released on the ET9000 as yet??
Thanks,
FP.
im not sure about the framebuffer on the older et's
i'll find out and if its ok, i'll add to the feeds for them :)
1080 skins added to ET4x00, 5x00, 6x00, 9x00.
will be in the feeds in next build.
If on the info section on the receiver it says I have Openvix-HD 090 then I must have flashed the HD version right? and if this is the case then will I need to fresh flash 095 or will it be available to software update with remote?
wait for build 96 if you want the hd skins, theres a bug in 95.
fresh flash the image with NO restore :)

I had normal vix working fine upto 80 so i'll restore to that if that's not gonna cause issues...

I have been switching between HD and normal ViX multiple times using restore and never had any issue.

Hi Rossi, Appreciate all the hard work. Is build 96 coming or is there a technical delay? Thanks for the HD experience

Build 096 is on www.openvix.co.uk and has been for the past three days already.

Hey Phoenix and Ureyesonly. I have a Vu Solo2 - I have checked the other modles in the VU range in the image download section. The HD images were moved to a sub folder "HD" and the latest image I can see for any of the the VU range is 90? Have I missed something?
The HD image has been discontinued and merged into the base ViX image from build 095 onwards. reflash your receiver with any base ViX image from build 095 on and you will be able to download the HD skins from the feeds for all compatible receivers.

Hey Phoenix, Sorry! missed that. I did actually download the 96 update, but saw the "standard" style Apollo front splash screen, so thought I had gone wrong.
BTW - is there a way the get the OpenViX HD theme splash screen and any other attributes that don't come with the skin?
The standard ViX image does not use the boot video's that rossi had on vis HD variant but he is looking at adding them to the feeds along with some other things he's currently working on.
hi everyone, i have a vu solo2 running vix hd, i have just bought another one and this has the non hd software on, where can i get the hd software from? i have been on openvix.co.uk and flashed the most recent build 118 and its stil the non hd one?
thanks in advanced
The HD image was discontinued and it's code merged into the standard ViX image, there will be no further updates for the ViX HD image line. Just flash the latest ViX image from www.openvix.co.uk and download the HD (1080) skins from the image plugin feeds where the hardware supports them.
