    I will take another look then.
    A easy enough mistake to make.

    dont worry about that, it will fit without any problems.

    Although i use a 2.5" drive in the Uno i do use a 3.5" drive in my Ultimo which uses the exact same cradle.

    It did, thanks.

    I seem to be getting there 'slowly'

    I have a couple of things left that I'd like to do now.
    I have never seen the EPG working as I'd like and have read that the EPG.DAT file is best stored on the HDD.

    I also would like to make use of picons.

    Can anybody recommend a up to date file for 28.2?
    I have raed that these are best stored on the flash memory, is that the case?

    As ever thanks for all the help.

    From here.

    http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...uk-28-2-picons

    Extract the archive, then FTP the PICON folder to the root of your chosen media ( Flash or USB preferably ) Dont use the HDD for picons as it will slow the box down due to needing to spin up the drive at every channel change. I also use the SGTFlipFlop E2 bouquets in conjunction with the ViX modified Autobouquets from the feeds.

    Again a big thank you to everyone that helped me in this thread.

    I have a box that is working great, an EPG that updates everyday, picons that show when I change channel and a hard drive installed that I've started to record onto!

    One final question ...

    I have a dnla compliant TV and blu ray upstairs on the same network.
    Can I view things I've recorded on the Vu through them?
