Didn't delve into it too much last night but will over the weekend, oscam works, opentv on crossepg works, no support for Virgin epg as far as I can see, sundtek control center works, havnt tried Auto bouquets or ABM yet.
Having problems with picons displaying correctly, or not at all on the LCD, will probably have to install lcd4linux got that, on VTi there where pre-installed configs under the display menu.
I can manually install Autoubouquets, but it doesn't work (it runs through something and then says it refreshing bouquets, but WAY too fast for me to see what it shows on the screen), but nothing is actually done.
ABM even with a manual install, doesn't showup, but it hasn't worked with BH for about 24 months anyway iirc.
Peobably against the grain :) but what about Lraizer ABM?
used vti but didn't know how to start softcam so we stopped and waiting for Vix to launch image

There was an ARM option in the settings, which I selected

I just reinstalled it, this time I used the ipk enigma2-plugin-extensions-autobouquets-e2_20151027_all.ipk (only just downloaded it from here).
It installed fine from the ipk.
But still doesn't work.
I did manage to time it right and grab a screenshot, but I don't think it will help much and there is no time to scroll down and grab the 2nd page.

That shows you are using the mips reader. Any chance you can post the screenshot of the settings page? Maybe variables not being read properly. Latest version in this thread:

If your settinsg show you as having selected ARM CPU, can you try telnet command:
cd /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/AutoBouquets
then
./autobouquets_e2.sh 4097#01#4101#1#1#1#0#1#1#1#1#1#2#1#0#1#3#0#autobou quetsreader_arm
Ok the latest version sat on this screen for a few mins, then said it was reloading bouquets.
But nothing has been done.
using the telnet command gives this

Phew!
There is an issue with the data on ITV transponder. Hope that was the isue it, and nothing related to the FBC tuners.
Well it works perfectly using bbc one and I was
indeed using itv before.

I can also confirm this works, although it creates all the bouquets when I choose not to, I then have to delete them.
I also tried autobouquets_c2 but ended up with a load of empty bouquets, yes my net I'd was set correctly, I used the cables.xml from my duo2 running vix (now come on, share and share alike), is there a certain channel that has to be set to also?, I just presumed because I have dual cable tuner it would run in the background.

In the menu there is a selection called VTi panel, if you choose the top selection in there it gives you a load of options, one works exactly the same as softcam manager in vix where you can choose to start, autostart and restart, presuming you have installed it from the plug in feeds.
I can't provide screen shots as I am currently disappearing down a black hole lol.

EvO has now provided 2 custom LCD configs, they can be found in the picons section of BH addons.
Things I am missing from vix:
autoBouqetsmaker... What an amazing program I can't believe other images don't want to port this.
Virgin epg support (pvr_epg channel).
Service name picons.
The ability to copy recordings via network mounts.
I would prefer Graphical EPG to be the default, it seems to reset back to single EPG.
If I think of any more I will add them.

BH, seems to be missing a lot of stuff in the tuner area. Crap blindscan, no signal finder in terrestrial and cable, no predefined transponders, no ABM, etc. What good is an image without decent tuning functions?

Agree , but also VU+ are living on their past reputation - new box, new technology, absolutely poor product management by VU+ (/in fact they probably can't even spell product management)
Wetek, also ARM, delivered with 2 operating systems and now even has 3rd (Enigma2) with Kodi 15.2 .. difference Wetek WANT the business, VU+ EXPECT the business. :)

Maybe so, but wouldn't recommend the Wetek for Enigma 2.

As a secondary box its great and with full Kodi ... although you need Oscam for non fta, but overall surprisingly fast.

Part of their 'past reputation' is not listening to clients, devs and retailers, as well as not (or very poorly/slowly) fixing issues. They honour this part of their past, they really do :cool:
Anyone have an idea when we will have a Vix image for the Solo2 4K released?

Well.... 1st the developers need to know what has to be changed, then they have to change both oe-a and ViX, then they have to test (assuming there is product available), then they have to apply fixes, then they have to retest preferably with multiple users .............. ALL in their spare time :)
... And they have to respond to issues on the forum:)
Doesn,t sound like tomorrow, does it! :)
I am sure they are beavering away and it will be delivered when they have a solid system..
Just getting into the workings of this decoder and for me the LCD is not working quite right, the picons are not displaying and my wifi keeps dropping whenever restart or rebooting, it appears to wipe the Nameserver IP it's like it cannot save it, anyone else have this issue?

Yes I had the problem a couple of times after restarts on black hole my dns was changing to 0.0.0.0, I reported it on black hole forum and another guy was having his name server reset also we received no explanation why this was happening but it sounded like they knew about it...
Picons have to be 200x132 Service reference, you also need to download one of the config files from the picons section in black hole add ins to get them to display on LCD.

I've hit another problem in black hole, I flashed back to VTi to check it wasn't box related but it worked fine in VTi.
I can mount my duo2 and solo2 hard drives in Solo4k running blackhole and browse and playback files from them fine.
I can apparently mount Solo4k hard drive in duo2 and solo2 running vix, the drive shows as mounted and available in mounts edit.
I can not though browse to any files on it from duo2 or solo2 running vix, the error I get is
Media/autofs/VUSOLO4K/ is not available
If I browse to the symlink for Solo4k in vix pvr and try to delete it it says invalid directory...?
Is there a certain protocol for BH systems?
It works fine accessing Solo4k VTi from Vix.
I can mount the solo4k fine from my Duo2 with Openpli on it and browse files and playback media just fine.

But is it running Blackhole or VTi, I can do it fine with VTi.
Can you tell me what protocol you used? Autofs, fstab, enigma2, Linux?
Cheers.
I can mount the S4K fine with my SoloSE, and playback fine.
The SoloSE is running OBH, and the S4K is running BH 3.0

Well it seems it MAY be a problem with vix talking to BH, I noticed on your forum that some VIX users where having probs accessing their BH boxes from vix but not the other way round.
There are a couple of other things I will try.
P.s. No one has answered which mount protocol BH uses, it doesn't seem to use autofs, I think it uses old style linux.

I am running openpli on Duo2, OBH on soloSE and BH on solo4k, I just use the mount manager to make CIFS share and can see the whole HDD

I appreciate everybody's comments, but no one is trying to recreate the problem... which is vix on a duo2 and solo2 whether it be cifs or nfs are not able to browse the hard drive of the solo4k running Blackhole, i don't doubt you can access it from OBH or Open PLI. I have now given up on this, i have spent the last 4 nights from getting in from work and all this morning and it doesn't work. I'm not saying it is Blackhole's fault, and i'm not saying it is Vix fault but it doesn't work.
Things i have tried
Duo2/solo2 >>>>>>>>>>>Solo4k = Results
Vix 3.2>>>>>>>>>>>>>>VTi 9 = Works fine
Blackhole 2.17>>>>>>>>> VTi 9 = Works fine
Blackhole 2.17>>>>>>>>> Blackhole 3 = Works fine
Vix 3.2>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Blackhole 3 = Does not work
I've given up on it, if i need to watch something from the solo4k hard drive i will have to ftp it to the duo2/solo2 first, one thing for sure is i aint running anything other than Vix on those boxes ffs.
