I installed the image and so far so good. Only problem I have is I do not know how to run mgcamd on it. Any help?

Thanks,

 

[Mr. Mister]

Install the softcam like you would any other ipk file..

FTP the MGcamd ipk file to tmp.. then > Blue button > Vix > Install Local extension..

Just follow the onscreen details

 

[mathiaskt]

Thanks - will try that now.

 

[mathiaskt]

Thanks I have installed mgcamd just fine. The aspect ratio is not ok though. The actual image is fine but when you select something else MENU par exemple, part of it is just outside the screen. Is there anything I can do to fix it?

menu> setup> system> OSD> OSD POSITION SETUP.

 

[mathiaskt]

watching a film now will give it a go after that - thanks

 

[mathiaskt]

I have tried several values but seems it didn't make much change noticeable change. Do you have an example of values to use? I have a panasonic 42" TV. Thanks,

 

[Larry-G]

I'm at work and dont have access to a receiver to be totally certain but when you go to menu> setup> system> OSD> OSD POSITION SETUP. you will be presented with a settings page where you can adjust the OSD left / right / up and down. adjust the left hand side first and depending on your TV it may take around 20 or so clicks before you start to see a difference but you will.

 

[mathiaskt]

Will give it another go - thanks,

Hi,
A big thanks to OpenViX team:thumbsup:
Flashed my gigablue without any problems but cannot find "extra" downloads like in PB image "PowerBoard center"
Or I have to do that via ftp?
Thanks!

@mathiaskt,
better option would be to disable overscan on your TV if possible. Perhaps manual or google will give you a hint.

@lemi,
what Do you mean with "extra"?

ciao

There are no "extra" downloads within the ViX image other than our own FEEDS which can be accessed via the plugins menu. be aware though we do not host softcams in those feeds you will have to install any cam you need manually. cams for the ViX image can be obtained here
