The files go here just un-rar the files and over-write the old ones and restart your box:D

/lib/modules/2.6.18-7.3/extra/

If you are updating the VIX image use the files :D

mbox-dvb-modules-bm750-2.6.18-7.3-4.4.3-20110321.tar.gz


Warning always make a backup before adding the new drivers

With the new drivers:
1- Slow forwards (1/25, 1/16 etc.) and fast backwards now work fine (at last!).
However: slow backwards still does not work at all.
2- I now managed to have 6 simultaneous recordings (with the previous drivers that was 5) + live TV.

When I extract the above downloads some of the file names are the same so it asks if you want to replace? Is one download for a Solo and one for a Duo

As you can see by this earlier post, your question regarding Vix and which drivers is already answered specifically!!! The files may have the same names, but the 4.4.3 ones are the ones that match the Vix 2.0x builds.

If you are using VIX 2.0 they will be in a online update soon

we are just testing now before we push out the drivers :thumbsup:

because we want to make sure they dont have a detrimental effect on your receiver. it would be inappropriate for us to push drivers / updates through the update feeds without first testing them to make sure they are safe to use.
