I've been blessed with years of trouble free operation from Vix 2.0!
I have been using a VU+ Duo, and apart from doing the Capacitor fix has also been good. (Until a few weeks a go!)
Given that i haven't had any issues, you can image i have been reluctant to mess with anything. After twice swapping capacitors on my VU+ Duo, it finally refused to boot. I didn't fancy changing the power regulator or paying to have somebody else do it. So i ordered a VU+ Zero from WOS last week. I asked for VIX 3.2 to be pre-installed. Setting everything up was fairly straight forward apart from a small niggle involving seeing the new box on my PC's network.
My old VU+ DUO used to show up in "My PC" - "Network" etc. From there, i could access VAR/ETC without having to use any other FTPing software. I'm wondering what has changed with my new setup. Windows 10 does not see my new Zero box. Therefore i had to download some FTPing software, just to add some files. Any ideas why or what i maybe did years ago to make my DUO box visible in Windows 10 "Netwrok"? Ie, is it a Windows 10/VIX 3.2/Zero problem?
My second niggle is the remote's "Channel UP/Down" buttons. There used to be an option of swapping those buttons to pages UP/Down instead. I use the D button to scroll channels in menus so find the page skip feature much faster. Anybody know where in VIX3.2 this option is? (assuming it is even an option now etc)
Cheers!
