Box Stuck in Standby

[banjo69]

Hi, I have a vu+solo which is stuck in standby, showing the vu+solo on the front panel. Have tried the usual quick fixes of turning power off and on and changed the remote batteries but no change. Any ideas folks?

Solo or Solo2?

Hi,

I think you need to re flash the image. I had this with my Ultimo 4K several times, have you an up to date backup if so its very straight forward.

If nothing else works I'll try reflashing it, thanks

Hi, can I reflash the box without restoring factory settings?

Re-flashing the box will give you the default ViX image for your box.

If you've made a settings+plugins backup, you can restore them onto the image you've flashed, putting back any changes you may have made.

If you haven't a backup, then you still have a working system, but will need to start from scratch adding any changes you need.

Flashing an image is the equivalent of a factory reset.

Factory Reset is very misleading and it doesn’t mean wiping the system clean. Re-flashing the receiver and setting up as new is your best bet if you don’t want to restore any settings/plugins.

Thanks for that lads but the box wont even let me reflash the image, just sitting on the standby screen! Any other ideas? Box is just in a continuous "please wait" with the revolving VIX.

Have you followed the flashing guide exactly as described....

Yea but even when I insert the mem stick and switch back on it just goes on that loop

[ccs]

Try a different memory stick - the smaller the better.

When I extract the downloaded file Im not getting vu, its showing solo2
