i was running vix 4.1 and decided to update to 4.2.10
using menu>setup>vix i started to download 4.2.10
after waiting for 15 minutes and just seeing "downloading...." i thought something was wrong as normally an image would download very quickly.
the remote control was non responsive IE: no matter what button i pressed nothing would alter the receivers state.
so i switched it off using the power button on the back.
left it a minute or so then powered back on.
i was met with the usual "starting.." on the receiver display.
a second or so later the display showed "starting" (without the dots)
on my tv a see the "Vu+ your smart tv player" startup screen but that doesn't go away and the openvix splashscreen doesn't appear.
after 4-5 mins the tv screen goes blank for a second while the reciever display shows "starting.." again.
it then switches to "starting" (without the dots) the "Vu+your smart tv player" splashscreen comes on the tv again but gain....no openvix bootup screen.
this continues every 4-5 minutes and never progresses any further.
i have opened up the receiver and unplugged the HDD in an effort to eliminate that as a potential problem but the endless cycle continues.
while having the lid off i looked around the internals and everything seems fine, no sign of any burning or bulging capacitors or anything.
any ideas guys?
