    think I made my point badly. what I am trying to suggest is that (as rob has indicated in the past, plugins fit into images and images are not written around plugins), that the vix team focus on a (very) core set of plugins and open up a separate forum area for extra plugins where users can download and manually install. these users can then post feedback into the plugin area of the vix forum as to how well these plugins work. overall it would save the vix design team a huge amount of test time on their Beta testing of images as plugins would come very much second to the importance of the core image

    You can open any thread you want. And if it's within our policy we will allow the thread.
    But please don't expect any of the ViX-team to spend more time (on plugins) then we already do.
    And also please bear in mind that we make images for satellite receivers ......

    the whole point is that the vix team spends less time on plugin support and more time on vix design. users can post plugins that do and don't work on vix so they become your plugin beta testers

    Then by all means please get the ball rolling and set up such a thread.

    can I suggest two headings. rather than threads there are separate folders where one folder is working plugins on vix, other is currently non working plugins on vix and associated error reports to help with resolution. within each folder is a list of plugins where the user can download whatever plugin they wish from the working plugins or view vix feedback on non working plugins

    No: make one thread and in the first post make two lists, like:

    Working plugings:
    1. xxxxx (for purpose aaaaa)
    2. yyyyy (for bbbbb)



    Not (fully) working:
    1. zzzzz (for cccc)


    In the discussion threads make sure to include what is tested on (box/image (version & build) and also what plugin version has been tested.
    Also make sure that the thread is kept up-to-date: what works today doesn't necessarily work tomorrow.
    In short: be prepared for a lot of work

    The mods can take care to keep that first post up-to-date with information from the thread.

    Poor post. You need to give more details. Preferably start a new thread and explain more.
