VIX 1.4 suggestions..

[Hamram]

White subtitles with thin black borders, please.

This is something one can edit... I've done it, but can't remember the actual folder/file, here I sit right now. If you're interested in trying, I could always direct you a bit later, if you still haven't sorted it out. Send me a PM or something, so this thread is not corrupted by smalltalk.

By the way, I second the wish for white (or off-white) subs.

I miss the autocam feature I had using DE Black Hole. If it is not to difficult to apply, it sure would be nice if it could appear in the VIX-images as well.

For me the image is perfect! no brown nosing it really is. why would i want freeview 3rd tuner support! no not for me thanks. very happy with what i have. If i could chose any updates it would be improvments in the playback of MKV files. full 1080 stuff that would be good. Auto timer improvments would also be nice.

Finally i think someone mentioed earlier that things were not always obvious. i agree, the image has so many features that alot of people may not use, a simple, intermediate and advanced menu would be nice. hiding away all those features that the average jo may not need. (people like my wife) if i could ask for anything it would be to make it more user friendly by hiding away a lot of the options.

I could enable advanced mode, set it up then set it back to user mode. all the gubbins for epg sources and like would dissapear.

I would also like to say thank you for the fantastic 1.3 Image  and in no way would I want to rush Andy and his team to release 1.4. I will however make some suggestion for new features:

1. DVB-T Support
2. An easy/automated way for auto timings to end up in a folder
3. Web Browser on the box so things like ORB can be accessed
4. BBC I Player, ITV Player and other catch-up TV Support
5. A better media player so the VU can be used as a more user friendly music player.

I understand that some of these have already been mentioned in this thread.

I dont actually use the Vix Image at the mo. but would like to see the following if not already available.

1) HD Picons that match up to B16MCC engima2 settings downloadable from plugins. I would like the Picons to automatically update on my usb key when transponders have have changed. this way B16MCC will always be updated and picons will always be updated.
2) to be able to remove the numbers from Channels such as B16MCC within an option from the Vix image.
3) Magic-EHD Skin or more available skins, I remember last time I tested Vix I seem to remember there were limited skins
4) Any updates to cams available in plugins such as Mgcamd 1.35a patched
5) Sat aNgels or similiar available in plugins
6) I would like the ability to assign a specific EPG to the single press of the EPG button, not sure if this is possible or not. (Allthough reading through comments on the VixTeam images the single press EPG does look better than other teams images..

If the above are already available I would re-flash as of tomorrow. I seem to be using this forum more more,,,,, hey great community.

1. being worked on by me to reflect b16mcc i work very closely with b16mcc to keep his bouquets upto date along with other members

2. that is a plugin that is a pc based program it wont be done in the box as the plugin is something that b16mcc has said to me personally that he wont be doing [ nothing to do with vix its a plugin issue]

3. more skins are being worked on as i type

4. when a new cam is released it is put up in the feeds [no mods or hacks will be though]

5. satangels breaches forum rulels thus was removed in vix 1.2

6. Andy has aleady said no promices but he will see what he can do

I would love to see a subtiteling system as PLi has. Nice small white with thin black borders. And, most important: on the right spot on the screen. Centered near the bottom and not three lines from top to bottom as it is now.

 

[silverfox0786]

the subtitles are being looked at also its been mentioned but considering getting the image to actually work the subs are small fry in comparison

 

[ESM]

That's what I heard before and I don't agree. For me the subs are very important. And having them all over the screen is terrible. Not Vix fault by the way. I know that the Vu+ people themselves are responsible for this scenario. Blame to them! I hope Mike can fix it.

hi guys, i feelbad even mentioning something to add to the next imae as i really appreciate all the work that u guys do. Just wish I was as clever as u guys and then maybe I could help yer out but in the mean time could i ask this

i know we have a parental control but it doesnt seem to work. Ive set my pin and told it to protect the setup menu but it still allows me in without re-entering my pin. would it somehow be possible to password protect the whole of the setup menu so that children/ people that dont know what they are doing lol dont mess about with it and change things by accident

would really appreciate it

as far as i am aware this is a vuplus bug and is present in all images untill vuplus fix it

Dear Santa,

All I want for Christmas is USB DVB-T support on the next build release of ViX 1.4 for the WinTV Nova-T. I have been a very good boy all year. I brush my teeth every night. And help Mammy when ever I can.

Thanks,
Roger

Me too. BTW Thanks for VIX, I love it.

I'd like to see fixed the "Delete old movies from Trash after N days".
Doing it one by one by hand is for some reason very very slow....

[dfdream]

Gip I think that option is already there.
In Setup...System....Record there is an option to Remove Items from trash in number of days.
Default is 8.
One thing Im currently testing latest PLi but Im nearly certain twas in Vix 1.3 as well...

Yes, it's there, but it doesn't work. That's why I'd like it 'fixed".

[silverfox0786]

yes it is in VIX as standard it does not need setting up it does it automatically

You mean the "delete old files from .Trash" ? I cannot make it work. With the default , or a different number of days, my .Trash still fills up.

Just had a look and your right Gip. I've still got stuff in mine from 24-10-10

 

[silverfox0786]

Yes, 1.3 updated.

I already reported it to andy some time ago, and I sort of remember then in one of the "Vix 1.3 Real Soon Now" messages he said that it was fixed (or he was fixing it), but it seems it's not, so I am putting it as a request for 1.4.....
