VIX for Dreambox 800se

[Rob van der Does]

If anyone's interested the closest image to VIX for the DM series is definitely OpenATV (used to be Open AAF) - I installed it on my DM800HD and am very impressed. As they're part of the OE-Alliance they've obviously taken a great deal of the look and feel of the VIX image - .....

That's were you're wrong: the OE-alliance shares the Open Embedded (build environment) and several plugins. But Enigma2 (i.e. the user interface) is a development of each team, without any involvement of other teams.

My mistake then - but it is VERY similar to VIX, compared to DM800 images from other teams (and I've probably tried 20+ different images in the last couple of years...)

If anyone's interested the closest image to VIX for the DM series is definitely OpenATV (used to be Open AAF) - I installed it on my DM800HD and am very impressed. As they're part of the OE-Alliance they've obviously taken a great deal of the look and feel of the VIX image - including OnDemand, AutoBouquetMaker, the Graphical EPG etc. - the only plugin I needed to install was CrossEPG (can't think why it isn't installed by default).

There are only a couple of drawbacks - the Image Backup doesn't work (as it's coded for boxes which update from USB, not .nfi files) and also I can't get my Nova-T DTT stick working. However, I can't get the DTT working in ANY new image (either OE2.0 or OpenPli3.0) on this box - and I've tried a few...

So - if you want VIX on a Dreambox , try it out...

Just an update for anyone interested - both the Image Backup and DTT are now working - great image!
