Brand new duo2 remote not working

[irishchris]

I'm not sure exactly what the 'camera trick' is mate? I'm open to ideas though. Anyway, update. Late last night I decided to try prepping the stick on my old pc upstairs that has xp on - it flashed first time, no problem. I saw 'finished' and it rebooted. When it got to the video select screen though, the remote still didn't work. I tried flashing again this morning, again successfully, but still no working remote.

Use a digital camera to observe the infared led at the very top of the remote. You should see it light up red when any button is pressed. Not visible to the human eye directly but by using a digital camera you can

Thanks, just done that and I can see the ir light on my phone camera when I press a button. So the remote is sending out something. The receiver isn't seeing it though, for some reason...

Have you left the protective film over the front of the receiver ?, especially over the IR sensor ?, if so try removing it and see if that makes a difference.

So you don't read what we write when trying to help you

Sorry Rob, I didn't know what you meant and I was struggling to re-flash when you suggested it. I appreciate your help mate, really. I haven't used a vu box before and I don't know what a web interface is tbh.
I removed the plastic film when I first unpacked it Phoenix.
Thanks, Steve

well the web interface is not important at this moment in time considering that you cant set up your network mounts via the FIW ( first install wizard ).

Ah right, ok. I have a FoxSat receiver that has a web interface, thinking about it, so I sort of know what you mean. Looks like it will have to go back then - gutted!
