    You can check the state of the feeds on http://www.openvix.co.uk/
    RED = unstable, GREEN = stable

    Just because it's set to RED doesn't necessarily mean it shouldn't be used, just that there's probably a new build that hasn't been fully tested yet.

    To allow unstable updates:
    Menu -> Setup -> System -> Software Update -> Allow unstable updates = yes.

    As for 2) That's the software update icon.

    Thanks judge but why dose it say feeds seem to be unstable when press download plugings (green button) on the plugings brouser on the box. Am I rite to think then that the record light flashing red or green isn't nothing to be concerned about and its normal sory if questions sound silly just trying to understand everything about the box and vix thanks

    The red/green flashing light has nothing to do with recording. It shows that the box has detected that there's an online update available.
    If it's flashing red, it also sees the plugin feeds as set to unstable.

    That's great judge so red or green lights have nothing to do with recordings that's put my mind at ease thanks for that rite to pick ya brain again if I want to download plugging from the feeds on the box do I enable unstable updates because that's the only way I can see to get download feed to show

    Yes, while the image is still tagged as unstable, you need to enable unstable updates to download plugins.
    If that update icon is flashing green, plugins will still be available.

    Depending on the skin you're using, the record (REC) icon will look slightly different & flash red when a recording is happening.

    No problem. I'm sure there are a few threads on the forums explaining all the icons & their various states.
    Might be hard to track down in a search though, so just read through the forums & you should find things easy enough to use/get used to on the image.

    If you get stuck anywhere, open a new thread in the right box/image section & always include the build number. Menu -> Information -> About as it makes things so much easier...
