    Latest Pli uses a new bootloader. I'd recommend waiting for the new ViX image which isn't too far away. We will also post the upto date bootloader when ready.

    I also advise to be careful when flashing bootloaders.

    Ok thanks, but it makes no sense that we have new images but we cannot use them

    How do we load the bootloaders that are on here then ?

    You are free to use which ever image you want, ViX on the other hand will not release a image just to say we did, like so many other teams.

    We test and test and test some more, so that you the end user get the most stable and user friendly image possible.

    Just becareful flashing old images. Some users have claimed to be able to use ViX 2.2.1 by re-naming the flash files folder.

    Yes does make a DM800 look like a crappy snail. Et5000 is a superb receiver for the current price.
