Sorry - this one takes a while to explain, and I'm not sure I'm in the right section of the forum (apologies if so), but here goes...
- I have 2 x Vu+ boxes (Uno 4k and Zero), both were running a vix image from April / May last year, and running IPTV (Zero is also Freesat) - I had no problem with either in terms of the IPTV streaming (beyond the odd freeze here and there)
- I was having issues streaming from one box to an other, so tried installing Samba. This massively slowed down the Zero, so I removed from both boxes
- I re-flashed both to the latest Vix image (5.3.034), to try and solve the issue
- I re-ran the script from my IPTV provider (I don't know if the script was identical to the one that was previously running)
- After updating relevant settings, plug-ins etc. the Uno 4k was running IPTV fine
- However the Zero kept freezing - by this I mean that it'll be fine for 30-60 seconds, then it will freeze for a few seconds and at this time. Given that the 'loading' symbol would appear in the top right left corner, I don't think this is the IPTV sub (it happens when watching live TV or VOD content)
- I've tried reflashing the zero (again to the latest image) - didn't solve the problem
- The Uno 4K has now started freezing, so I tried reflashing to an older Vix image - this hasn't solved the problem
- Not sure if relevant, but I have set-up a swap file on each box
- Also, I was previously running a VPN on each box, but haven't got round to setting up again on either yet
Given that I've tried all the variables I can think of that could be causing this problem, I'm now completely stuck. Does any of this sound like a familiar problem, and if so, does anyone have a solution? (I'd be very happy if so :))
