ViX 1.3 Why A New Version?

[fintannl]

ok, i know its a daft question. and as you say all i do use the system for is sat viewing. and i swore that dream elite was for ever the best. so now i've had my fix of vix there ain't no going back. but still i continue to read. take for example vpn plugin, would that be good. also checked out sicilians link to a neat wifi box that can be used with the duo. all i ask (which is a bit) is is possible to put together the ultimate system with the ultimate settings or is it just simply every user has their own needs and such a thread is not possible

I think the post by fintannl was very fair. The amount of work, skill and knowledge to produce an image of the quality of Vix is daunting and I'm sure everyone is very grateful that the "team" are willing to work so hard for us all.

I sometimes feel that the "team" are so involved in what they are doing that they may not appreciate the difficulty the average person has in understanding what all the hard work can do. It may be so obvious and simple to them but can be mind boggling to many including me.

What can I do to help fix this? -E2Royal-

New Version questions

Hi m8s

I often wonder why people people come here asking when the next update will be, to develope a new image and make sure it works takes a vast amount of time, the last thing any image developer want is to produce a duff image that would **** up your stb.

Ok i know some of you will say that there are glitches with most images when released but just for a moment think of all the possible combinations of problems that can happen from incompatable hdd to usb stick to videos or tv's, just the thought of that would put me off wishing to develope a image ...

So when a new image is released of course we all put in our own gripes with what needs fixing so alot of time is taken up trying to remedy these before even thinking of improving the next version for release.. so please give them time and allow them to get things right , in the end im sure we shall see a first class image produced for the vu+ & solo.

To give a little balance here....

If any "image" team doesn't want questions relating to any up coming release then i think it best they don't start a thread announcing the "upcoming image" !!!
Once you set the torch paper, you cannot blame the resulting fireworks!

I fully support everthing Andy and the team are doing here.
I think most decent people appreciate the effort required to develop these images.
I also think most people can just wait until it is released.
However, some people on here are getting upset by people even daring to ask perfectly normal questions.
They are not getting on the teams back, just trying to find out what any new image will bring/fix.
As mentioned, so many people on here have so much "old hand" knowledge, that they forget newbies like myself and other struggle to understand even the basics of whats going on.
So we have to ask questions that can sometimes come across as harassing/pestering.

Myself personally will be waiting a little while before updating to v1.3.
This isn't because i don't think it will be better, rather that i think they did a great job with v1.2.
The current version is doing everything i need of it and is proving very stable.

Of course i will update at some point. But hopefully by then, people will be on here in the "where's v1.4" thread...

I dont see the point in asking anything about V1.3. Of course everyone is waiting to see whats its like and what it can do.. I aint a member of the team.. but it does piss me off with people asking.. "When can we have blah blah blah" .. "When will we get blah blah blah".. When will V1.3 be ready

People gotta understand that the VIX team have family as well and they also need to spend time with them as well.. and also do the things all of us do to chill out..

The image will be released when its ready.. So give the guys a break.. and make use of what you have instead of having a moan about what you dont have..

yeah tell me about it mate. i was part of the team that broke the xbox 1 way way back and my head still hurts now.

you know what ?. it would be best for all man kind if we just locked our devs in a dark room and beat them with sticks untill they came up with the goods LOL.

oh really what part did you do i still have 3 xbox1s 2 black and 1 crystal all soft and hard modded with OLED on them from team x

 

[bob1]

Sorry i asked the question now, i think people just take things far too seriously and think we are stamping our feet demanding the new image ,in my case ( and just about everyone else) thats far from the truth we all understand that Andy and the team are hard at work tinkering and fine tuning.
All the questions asked about the release were all light hearted anyway hence the use of smiley's
Vix 1.3 will be here soon we all know that as they have told us ,i can't see why asking if its finish and nearly ready for use is out of order, a little info about whats happing isn't that harsh surely.
Anyway thats my last word on the matter in fear of upsetting anyone else

 

[Mr. Mister]

Maybe its time for the mods/admin to start dishing out infractions for this type of thing..??

Thats will kill the asking stupid questions right away..

i was part of the team that first dumped a original disc to the hdd of the console allowing the iso to then be FTP'd to the pc to be burnt to blank media.

lol it'll never work. but it's always fun to dish out infractions to those who deserve it though.

 

[satsatsat]

guys we are all singing from the same hymn sheet...

its great people are asking cos if there was ni interest that would be even worse....but true let it happens when it happens

so we all want the same thing

Yep I agree 100%

reading most peoples questions so far, they haven't been harrasing, just curious etc.

It's begining to feel like a us and them situation where should anyone dare ask a question, we have scorn poured on it by someone (usually with a blue name).

It was 13 days ago now I think that we were told "if all goes well we should be releasing load of updates online tomorrow". I had a few problems a couple of days ago and needed to reflash. I felt like asking a simple question "hi guys, any news on the update, need to reflash, but will hold off if it's iminent" but was scared (well scared is the wrong word but you know what I mean) to do so. That simply shouldn't be the case on the support forum. If people are hesitant about asking simple honest questions, then they will end up going to another forum.

I appreciate the hard work Andy does, I know exactly what people are talkng about when they say others give up due to constantly being hassled etc. But what we've seen on this forum doesn't even come close to that.
