Hi all,

Rapidly losing patience with my new Solo2 here. Have flashed OK with openvix-3.0.626-vusolo2_usb and
with BlackHole-2.0.1-vusolo2_usb. Apart from making a weird buzzing noise through the telly, but not through a scart only through the hmdi, the box seems capable of very little else.
The screen is pretty unreadable. It's off to the left so you can't see the edge of the words and the coloured buttons at the bottom are invisible so what they do is a mystery. The set up invited me to resize so the edges of the blue box..... There is no blue box! Anyway at this point all the words and pics were nicely in the middle of the screen. Not once you finish the install though.
I've tried autoscan, manual scan, autobouquetmaker and Vix 28.2 East Sky UK Bouquets 03-03-13. Whatever. The appearance is frankly unusable with no user friendly way to navigate to channels.
The handbook supplied is a nice coaster but good for little else and the manufacturer's own website fails to provide a manual!
I've wasted 2 whole days on this thing, who knew there were so many forums for this stuff. I must have read them all. God knows how much telly I've missed:D

Please help before this gets sent back to Amazon:confused:

Cheers,

Keith.
 
i'll give ya £30 :D

someone here will be able to help you, just be patient.
 
as for the noise, have you the hdmi cable inserted fully into the TV & the box?
maybe volume up too loud on the TV & too low on the box?

as for picture size, you need to turn off overscan on your TV. Google the make & model to find instructions.
If you can't do that, use the OSD position setup & resize there.

After you have done a channel scan, hit the TV button (bottom left on the remote) to see your channel lists.
 
It's amazing how people blame their equipment for thier own short commings (or lack of intelect) :sofahide:
 
Thanks.
hdmi cable fully in at both ends.
Volume is fine, promise.
It's a Phillips. Good luck turning off overscan, I can't find any solution on Google or Phillips.

Any increase on £30.00?
 
I was completely new to the scene too having had a spiderbox just and got this not knowing anything. After plenty reading and asking few questions i dont know how i lived without it! You need patience at the start if you want to learn - but you have to want to!
P.S. I'm sitting in work controlling my solo2 at home and beaming from ear to ear :cool:

A lack of intelligence can lead to a buzzing noise? Never knew that, I must be thick.
 
How much you selling for, my solo2 also makes the buzzinf noise via hdmi when on the vix loading screen.
 
Someone in the last few days posted a sticky for Newbies on how to setup a Vu box, perhaps if you google it might help
 
if u get really really fed up enough i can give u a working backup image then if it still does it after that it must be your tv
cus mines running sweet as a nut

Yours buzzes to? You must be as thick as me :p
Mate, I ain't selling - it goes back to Amazon:rolleyes:
 
I'm a newbie and the solo 2 was a doddle apart from my lack of interlect lol.. To size your screen, Go to setup, scroll down to interface and in there is position... you can re size the screen, and the position.... If you can't manage that let me know and i'll up the cash price to £40 :)
