I added the new skin because the TV guides were not updating. So I have a different problem now as my box cant boot up. Ive tried using FTP but it wont connect for some unknown reason, I have used this before so I'm OK with FTP. Secondly ive tried to flash the latest image via USB stick but with no joy even though I followed the instructions to the letter.
So I'm totally stuck now I need some help please.

1. Don,t panic
2. Is the box still bootable eg it didn,t flash?
If so use ftp to delete the skin - what was it? Usr/share/enigma2 ... delete skin
3. format new stick fat32, load image folder and try to reflash

TV guides (epg) not loading and skins are not related

Hi Towl thanks for your reply. For some reason FTP doesn't work now it seems unable to see the IP address. As for trying to flash a new image it ignores the sticks as ive tried 2 and formatted both. Even tried different images I know I'm doing something wrong but I don't know what?

Do an IP scan from a PC and just check that the IP address hasn't changed.
Some receivers ans sticks can be tempermental, try another stick and make sure that the folder and naming on stick is correct.

I'm still having trouble using FTP to my box but I managed to use my IP scanner to it. I was then able to delete the offending file and the machine rebooted fine. Can you tell a good skin to use with me et10000.

The ViX-Confluence skin is nice & big. The YouViX-Blue is also a nice skin.

Thankyou that sorted the problem with FTP. I still have a problem with EPG though, every time I open up the listing all the tv guides are missing. Also I cannot auto copy to work only individual at the time saves.

To keep the epg filled, you need to schedule either CrossEPG or EPGimporter

You posted in the download section, I shall move the thread for you.

Please note the following:



It is best to use the image support section for image issues as problems/solutions are usually the same irrespective of receiver. It also helps others searching for the same issue although they may have another receiver.

Please read the thread in link below which explains things better.
