vu+ duo2 goes to standby and EPG problem

[sectoid1]

First I was on Apollo and moved to Hades as you guys said Apollo wouldn't be supported anymore and Hades would be the only supported version. Now there is something new again How many more new images will be released this year?

Ok, I'll get the new flash. Are those problems solved there?

the standby problem will still be there.

You don,t have to update ... It,s upto you
However, plugin updates and features are likely to be only on the "current image" only.
If it annoys you that much you could try another image such as Openpli ..... If its a VU issue, you will not see any change ... But if you do then may be there is a resolution. Not worth trying another open alliance image as I would expect the CEC code to be similar across images.

I quite like Vix image. I tried blackhole long time ago and had exactly the same issues, so I moved to Vix, as I thought the issues were related to the image. Apparently are not
Thanks

So after a few days of testing I'm convinced this problem lies in HDMI-CEC. It's off at the moment and the box hasn't gone to standby not even once.

As for EPG - so far so good

Thanks everyone!

i reported that problem to vu+ as well... maybe you should do so, too.

Hi Guys

I want to refresh this thread as I'm still having problems.

1. EPG - the same problem as in the 1st post. EPG data dissapears randomly. When I turn my vu duo2 on, sometimes the EPG is there sometimes it's completely gone. The box is set to update every morning. However sometimes during the day the EPG is gone completely. I noticed it usually happens when I put my box to deep standby. Sometimes there's no problem for couple of days but sometimes it's gone the same day. Couple of months ago I moved from a pendrive to HDD to store EPG data but this didn't change anything. Any ideas how to solve this, but please don’t tell me NOT to put my box in deep standby

2. Updates – the green update dot flashes ALL the time. I update, restart and few seconds later it flashes again. Then I check if there are any updates and the screen doesn’t show any updates, yet the green dot is still there. How to solve this? I think I'm on the newest soft - 4.2.

Thanks a lot

Try backing up settings and then doing a complete install of image from the vix menu or a USB

[sectoid1]

I'd have to check exactly but it's one of those Openvix 4.2 and I believe it's up to date. But to be honest I've always had these problems (for at least a year) even on previous releases.

I tried backing up and reinstalling again - didn't change anything

Could you try in normal Standby mode for a day or two, then at least you can rule out if its Deep Standby that has the issue or not?

Yes, I've tried that before and left it on normal standby yesterday. I'm pretty sure it's related to Deep standby, but I don't understand why would this happen. Shouldn't EPG be loaded regardless?
Loading the EPG date from the hdd (in options) doesn't bring it back. Only downloading again helps but it's pretty annoying as it takes about 30 min and channel cannot be changed during this process. Is there any soluton to that instead of using 'normal standby' only? Or maybe another update should fix this?

Talking about updates - any idea about my update problem with permanantly flashing green light? Is it just me or does anyone else have it?

Thanks

30 mins? The Vu+ Duo2 if setup correctly only takes 1 to 2 mins to parse n gather n generate CrossEPG data, so something definitely wrong in your setup. As for the permanent flashing green light, you must have done a software update when it was noted to do a usb or couch flash and restore settings and plugins.

He is probably using crossepg downloader for several online providers

[Andy_Hazza]

Even so shouldn't take 30 mins surely?

Hi Andy,
As Abu said, I'm updating EPG from 3 different providers - from astra 19.2, astra 28.2 and hb 13. I'll post later what they are exactly.

Is there any faster way to update EPG without using crossepg?

I don't understand what you mean here: 'you must have done a software update when it was noted to do a usb or couch flash and restore settings and plugins.' Could you please explain?
Thank you!
