ViX Team ET9000 Image v2.2 - 11/06/2011 - Discussion

[pooface]

New VIX Image ET9000 - v2.2
11/06/2011 - Open ViX 2.2
Based on Open PLi 2.0



From VIX Team

Enigma: 11-06-2011.
Enigma Plugins: 11-06-2011.
GCC Version: 4.4.4.
Drivers: 20110516.

ViX is now embedded within the image even more. A lot of settings have been moved out of the ViX menus, and incorporated within the image. Settings from previous images may not be 100% compatible, and it might be best to re-setup your image without restoring system settings for 100% reliability.

If you have previously used NetworkBrowser to mount network mounts, please remove '/etc/enigma2/automounts.xml' BEFORE tying to setup news ones.

Team ViX Enchancements

ViX Bootlogos, Radio Logo.
ViX Team Spinner.
ViX Team ViX_HD Skin.
ViX Team softcam manager - Lots of changes have been made here. You can now choose whether you want to check whether your cams are running by pressing menu in the softcam screen. You can also check the status of your cam checks by pressing the info button. Also, lots of behind the scenes checks to ensure no restarts of cams when it is actually running.
ViX Image Manager Update - This has been overhauled, and now has the option of creating a schedule to do daily, weekly or every 30 days backups for you.
ViX Cron Manager Update - This has been updated to allow more detailed and specific cron jobs to be created.
ViX Single EPG (with channel preview) - This has been updated to now support picons.
ViX Release notes - This is just a little screen within the Menu -> Information -> About, that appears when you press EPG/Info button, to tell you the latest updates for the image.
ViX Update Checker - This is a feature that lets you know of any available online updates by a little globe symbol in the infobar. This is set to check every 12 hours whether there are any updates for the image (can be changed in settings). If so, the icon will change from inactive to active...
ViX Logs Manager - This allows you to manager your crashlogs and system logs (if enabled). If you have a crash, you can email your bugs to us directly from the image. Go to Menu -> Setup -> System -> Logs. When in the Logs Manager, you can edit the configuration to show your forum username, and your email address by pressing the Menu button. Please ensure you do this before submitting logs!
ViX Settings - These are now found in the main System Menu.
ViX Simple TV List - This is a simple selection to show your bouquet lists, just showing the channels and current event (if in EPG). To access the Simple TV List, do a long up/down arrow button press. You can customised it to be the default option instead of Full Screen Channel List, in which case, Up/Down buttons are reversed. It can also be set in the ViX Settings for the TV button.
AutoTimer plugin integrated into image - Create an AutoTimer (Series Link), using Blue button in Current Channel EPG info. This has been updated to use threading, so that it will work in the background. No more spinning when checking for lots of timers. Default behaviour has been changed so that it does not check in standby only, and will check every 30 minutes.
CCcamInfo - CCcamInfo plugin built directly in to image.
OscamInfo - OscamInfo plugin built directly in to image.
Blindscan Support Added - This allows you to access blindscan within the Service Scanning menu.
CrossEPG - Updated to latest release to allow better EPG importing.
Movie Player - Now, when playing a recorded item, you can search EPG and add Auto Timers for the particular recording. When watching your recording, press yellow to search the EPG, then press blue to add an AutoTimer.

Short Red** & *** - Show current channel EPG info (ViX Single EPG).
Long Red*** - Show current event.

Known Bugs

• Radio mp3 stream crashes after some time (sometimes only > 1 hour). Once that occurs, TV is also without sound. A reboot is then required. There might be a relation with Shoutcast (in use or just installed).
• A second subtitle in AVI, MP4 etc doesn't show up. Debugging in E2 just stops.
• In Partnerbox (remote TV-Player) the audiobutton causes a crash.6

Hi,

The image is finally here, very good guys.Thanks

[Stanman]

A fantastic image from Andy, well worth the wait.

[The Bishop]

Looking forward to installing it.

Would anybody please be able to answer some "newbie" questions?

1. Do I need to run the online software update from the software manager after installing ViX 2.2 or are all the things that would be downloaded by the online software update already embedded in the image?
2. Do I need to install CCcam after installing ViX 2.2 or is it embedded in the image?
3. Apart from channel settings are there any other drivers or configuration files etc that I need to load after installing ViX 2.2? Apart from CCcam and channel settings etc , I have not previously customised anything in the ET9000.

1. Shouldn't have to install any updates as this is the very latest images and there are no updates, if any are release the update icon - globe with arrows on either side will be illuminated.
2. No CAMS in any VIX image you will need to manually install these just like on the current image - though you can back up your CFG file via FTP and reload it once flashed.
3. Any autotimers you have created, these are in ETC/Engima2 and are a XML file again FTP and back - will need long green to create the timers otherwise any upcoming may not get polled immediately.

no, the boot loader has to flashed just like you would the image, and yes it should work with vix no problems

[Sicilian]

No need to flash bootloader if ET9000 was purchased from WOS our sponsor.
