    Vu Duo+ arriving today

    I am expecting my VU Duo+ to arrive today.

    Can I ask for reccomendations for which Image I should use and why?

    I am not too bothered about the ability to multiboot images unless there is a very good reason why I should do this.

    I already have a DB7020 so it shouldn't take me too long to set up the Vu, although I will have to wait a day or two for the hard drive to arrive.

    I am currently using pli. I was on dreamelite but it would not play media files as well as pli (which i use mine quite a bit for). They are really easy to flash so give each image a try and find which one suits you best. Enjoy your new toy

    I'm also running PLI as well now.

    ALso was on Dream Elite.
    I do like the Dream Elite version, but the PLi seems quicker to me.

    Congratulations on your new Toy.
    I'm sure like me you'll have hours of fun getting it the way you want it.

    OK, my first problem.

    I am trying to open the front flap.

    I can open it slightly, but it doesn't want to open.

    I am reluctant to pull hard in case I break something.

    Is this a known problem?

    Slight resistance is normall but it really is not that tight.

    Currently testing new VTI image which is pretty good.

    Managed to open it with much careful struggling.

    It seems that the panel to the left of the flap looking at the front is oversized and causing the problem.

    I suppose it will eventaully sort itself out after some use.

    I assume I can go ahead and set some things up before I actually get the HDD to install inside?

    I would be grateful if anyone with a v2 box running with one of these could tell me how easy it is to setup.

    I am guessing it can't be much different from setting one up with a DB7020.

    Box is not flashing with usb drive in front slot.

    I just get VU+ in middle of screen and 'loading enigma2' bottom right and nothing seems to happen.

    Sorted.

    USB should be 'Fat' and not 'Fat32'.

    Now flsahed with Pli and currently setup just for Astra 19.2 until I have had a play around with it.

    Another problem.


    I am trying to enter my location.

    I can enter longitude fine.

    But, when I try to enter my latitude, the first digit can only be 1,2 or 3.
    My first digit is 5. If I press 5 on the remote, it will default to a 3.

    How do I overcome this?

    0 in front of the 5 or do I ignore the 5?

    I assume you are doing your N setting - If your posit' is 54.1 then enter it exactly like that (it puts the decimal point in for you) :biggrinjester:

    And don't forget to save it (further down)

    But the first digit can only be 0,1,2 or 3 for some strange reason.

    Yes it is the N I am referring to.

    Hmmm, Usals is not working for me.

    I assume because I am using a Vbox?

    You can't use USALS with a Vbox II. VBox II will only accept DiSEqC1.2 protocols.
