Just tested on several of my boxes: novacinema1 and novasport1 are both fine on 11823. Did you do a manual search with the correct settings (11823- Hor-27500-3/4-QPSK)?

i put at etc/tubox the latest sattelites.xml of reinhard and after automatic scan of hotbird i take these channels at 12207 , i had dreambox about 15 years ,i know how working enigma2.

its very strange problem,i have conect the lnb cable at tuner A and i have simple a/b/c/d diseqc configuration.

i have a manual favorites list of netmed provider,maybe this is a problem?

 

[redribo]

With manual scan all is ok,but why the automatic scan are not working with these channels?

i put at etc/tubox the latest sattelites.xml ......

Then you do it wrong: the file in etc/tuxbox is a systemfile and will be overwritten. The user file goes to etc/enigma2

There are how-to's about this on our forum.

noob alert..

trying to flash this with little success.

Downloaded image , extracted to usb key. from root of usb key directory I see is /vuplus/solo2/ with 6 files.

Insert USB Key into front of Solo2 switch of , switch on ... box says starting , update ... I press power button to commence update.

VFD then displays erasing/flashing , then UBIFS update ... then a countdown for reboot.

Box restarts and I am presented with a Blackhole splash screen and it gets stuck at "Starting GUI".... tried some other non blackhole backup images and same problem.

If I re-flash vanilla BlackHole-1.7.9 then system comes back with my previous settings still present ... channels, wireless password...

Clearly doing something wrong with the flash process , but what ?

You have a backup saved on your usb stick or hdd. Just ftp into the box and transfer it to your desktop, or remove the usb stick whilst you flash the box.

It's identical to the other VU-boxes: unzip the image to an USB stick in the front, reboot the box and follow the instructions on the VFD.

Strange...I can't flash my Solo2 :/...
I've downloaded the file, extracted into a formatted USB, unplug the mains, plug the USB and reboot...But still nothing...What did I do wrong?

Did you press the power button on the unit when the receiver said too? I had the same problem until I noticed the box.

Hi I am getting this error when trying to install some IPKs on my new box, I have flashed the new vix image twice now.

opkg_conf_load: Could not lock /var/lib/opkg/lock: resource temporarily unavailable. Locally via the box, I have tried to install;
-Official release solo2 drivers - by bassethound, 17-12-12 15:37
-enigma2-plugin-cams-cccam.2.3.0_1.0_mipsel

Any ideas where I am going wrong guys?

 

[andyblac]

Try allowing more time after a restart To allow the online check to be performed.

Also the image uses drivers from 20.12.2012

I think that you dont undertsund me,sorry for my bad english.
I said that i scan the hotbird and i dont have snr on cinema and sport1 at netmed provider because the solo2 doesnt find these channels on the right frequency and says that the channels are at 12207.
I flash with the stock vu image and then with bh 1.7.9.3 and all is ok, but with vix i have still pro lem.

Hi all

Have solo2 running sweet with oscam and ccam.
When trying to run the webgui though i get "dreambox webcontrol" and an error

Request failed for: /web-data/tpl/default/tplBouquetsAndServices.htm
Status: 405 Method Not Allowed

Any ideas what this means .. ??

Also Vix/Image Backup dosnt show "continue in background" as on the Vix 3.0 on my Duo and seems to take ages
(sits at 20/100 for a long time)

Also can i program the "remote control" keys ??
I'd like to turn of my Denon reciever and tv from the one remote ?
Is there a guide anywhere ?

The option to continue in the background was removed some time ago, you really should not be doing any thing during this time any way due to the system processes involved while making a image backup.

Ok

I also cant see under Vix the Power option (ie shutdown timer etc) i see on the duo image

 

[hamumann]

Is it possible to use MultiQuickButton with this image? The version from the feed doesn't seem to work.
Even if I deactivate colour buttons in the Vix menu, the assigned keys in MQB are not working.

And there are many screens with references to the "info" button but the solo2 doesnt have one on the original remote. Is there another remote (or harmony profile) to use which adds info button support?

 

[Larry-G]

Those options again have been moved, there now part of the power timers section and have been extensively re coded for added functionality The fact that you cant see these changes on your Duo suggests that your using a quite old build as most of those changes were made a long time ago.
