Normally when you flash an OpenViX image from usb, it will contain the splash. I guess your backup had a different splash screen.
I maybe wrong :) but I think if you download an image to the usb and then delete everything but the splash it should just flash the splash..... obviously take a backup before hand:)

If it is like my xtrend et8000 there is a initial BOOT LOGO usually something with the manufacturers name, then when openvix boots there is either the openvix default boot image, or you place one of your own images for it to use.


The first/initial boot logo is flashed when upgrading via usb, the openvix bootlogo is located in, SHARE directory, and consists of two files labelled "backdrop.mvi" and bootlogo.mvi"

hope this helps

The system bootup puts an image on screen (for me OpenVix in big letters across the screen).
The system start-up scripts puts bootlog.mvi on-screen (usually mentions Please Wait)
The enigma2 start-up script puts backdrop.mvi on-screen (usually the same image without the Please Wait)
The two *.mvi files are in /usr/share - although you can put your own into /etc/enigma2 to override these.

So check that you have these files (and that you haven't accidentally copied black.mvi from /usr/share/enigma2/).
