[VU+ Solo2] VU Solo2 ViX Image Discussion

Yes, if installing ViX, grab the latest image here:
http://www.world-of-satellite.com/enigma2/openvix/
extract it to the root of your USB & flash.

An EXT3 formatted drive will be fine.

Euuhhh? FAT32 you mean!

no, talking about the HDD, although I have no problems with EXT3/EXT4 formatted USB sticks either.

Euuhhh? Flashing from the HDD?

Then you lost me. You said:

Hi guys, I have used ViX with my Duo and now thankfully with the Solo2

Just a few questions...

The HBBTV plugin is not showing in the plugin extensions for me, am I doing something wrong or is it not supported yet?
Also, I came across a hbbig.com, Its a bookmark portal for HbbTV apps, will the ViX image support this in the future..

keep up the great work guys..

 

[Rob van der Does]

HbbTV is available as plugin from the feeds, and hbbig.com is present as bookmark in the Opera browser.

Hi,

ok, its not the end of the world but

take a look carrefully to this picture:



¿where are they gone? Yes, these lovely yellow folder icons & media file blue icons. I need them, i need them, i feel so good when they are right next filename...

And now... without these nice white lines... plugins are alone.... they feel so lonely... they are suffering...



With latest vix 558


Well, meanwhile vix team fix this issue i'll use my BH. Sorry.

Lots of skin updates have happened in the last few days, thanks for reporting this.
Should be fixed soon.

 

[andyblac]

MediaPlayer is no longer being maintained,, if it is still broke after update to build 561, it is likely to never be fixed, tbh i am even considering removing it from the feeds as it imo no longer needed.

Andy - what is the alternative to media-player then ?

i use mediaplayer to playback stuff from my XBMC box using DLNA

 

[Trial]

Hi,
ViX has a built in mediaplayer which should do.

ciao

 

[mickyblueys]

Vix has its own in built media player.

oh ok - dumb question

is this launched from the "recordings" button then on my solo2 ?

 

[mickyblueys]

Yes you open up you're recordings page, then press yellow location Button. Then navigate to your mounted drive or to you're media wherever it may be if its on your hdd. Least that's how I do it on my duo's.

Ok will give it a try tonight.

I thought that player was dedicated to playing recorded material only - so thinking out loud i guess i should be able to browse to /media/upnp/xbmcserver and navigate the material i have.

cheers - the mediaplayer does look dated

 

[ferrari312]

Guys,

I checked last night , maybe i should post in the main support forum.

Using the old mediaplayer i can browse my xbmc box through the DLNA directory and see my movies and play them back.

Using the "new" built in mediaplayer i can browse the DLNA directories and see the movie directories , but there is no .mu3 file or anything except a ".metadata" directory.

And if you use the DNLA-browser?

 

[ferrari312]

Rob,

If that is the plugin I don't recall using it recently - will check tonight but basic DLNA functionality is working cause i can see other devices such as my anriod phone, my router, and XBMC. Will check with the browser tonight and report back.... the wife is gonna kill me touching her "new" box ( oeerr )

On the plugins side i am sure i have the DLNA Server, DLNA Client ( djmount ? ) and as you said DLNA Browser all running.... and i also MINIDLNA running from System/Network - I suspect I don't need all these running
