    Angry Added Skin now Bootloop Zgemma

    Hi all,

    Just recently started to use VIX after using OpenATV for years and having 3 or 4 boxes, mainly Zgemmas!👍

    Being able to have up to 4 systems is a great plus👍
    Any way after deciding to really go with VIX I have started to get it all sorted and added plugins and the like.
    Just before I backed it up, I added a skin I am used to which is the default on OpenATV.
    It shut down to reboot and has now been stuck rebooting upto - 49 -!! Aarrhhh
    Please helpIMG_20200322_150621.jpg

    FTP to the box and delete the skin folder from /usr/share/enigma2/
    It will restart with the default skin.

    - adding any plugin thats not in the feeds is dangerous, unless you absolutely know its OK, otherwise you will end up doing as described above.
    Especially with highly tailored skins like ATV‘s metrix.

    .........FBC Tuners:

    ------------------> Spaun SUS 5581/33 NFA Multiswitch to 80 cm dish(19.2E)
    .......................> FBC & DVB-S2X into 90cm dish (27.5W) Opticum robust Unicable LNB
    AX HD61, Edision Osmio 4K+, Zgemma H9Combo, Octagon SF8008 , gbtrio4k, h9se using Legacy ports on multiswitches

    Telnet into the box using the ip address.
    Then enter init 4 (space between) (wait for E2 to stop - 30 secs?)
    Then on filezilla delete the skin folder
    Then in telnet enter init 6 (space between)
