[GiGaBlue QUAD+ PLUS] What is the flashing green blob on the infobar

[leshay]

Hi

Have scoured the VIX manual but unless I missed it, there is nothing in the manual about this.

I sometimes see what looks like a flashing green blob surrounded by brackets in the info bar next to the flashing red 'Rec' light.

I had thought it was something to do with a new update being available, but that didn't work out as it would happen when there was no such new update available.

Question:what on earth is it, and why does it flash at me sometimes?

It's the update icon basically telling you there is a image update available for your receiver.

Green - stable update
Red - unstable or untested update.

I wondered this too, and then when I put metrix HD skin on it flashed Update next to a green logo

Hi

Strange, as on various occasions I have checked for such an update when it is flashing and there is none. As an example, I am currently using 043, green blob flashing right now, but update site still shows 043 as the latest.

Build 044 was released this morning, and build 045 has just been uploaded, although we have set the status of that to unstable as it triggered a bootloop on one of the test receivers.

Well, I can't find anything above 043 at http://openvix.co.uk/index.php?dir=GiGaBlue-HD-QUAD-PLUS/

It does not have to be on the openvix site to trigger the update icon, when a new image line is built it triggers the online update icon on the image regardless of wether the image has been uploaded to the openvix.co.uk download site or not, images and other files there are uploaded by us manually.

Do not update to o45, will cause E2 loop, wait for 046.

Confusion here as usual. So, the web site doesn't get the update until manually uploaded - OK, so I must wait for that as I don't think the Software Update menu option allows choice of which version to allow? Or am I off on a wild sidetrack here?

To be safe, I think I should always wait til an update appears on the web site so I can see which one to choose.

We in between server moves right now.

You should be seeing a Red blinking icon, that means unstable. Green Stable.

Old server shows current status here http://www.world-of-satellite.com/enigma2/openvix/index.php

Once fully moved, new server here will show the correct status http://www.openvix.co.uk

As sicilian stated build 045 is unstable and causes a bootloop, wait for 046 which is building rite now, this contains the fix.

Yes: unzip the attached file to /usr/share/enigma2 and you'll be fine (build 46 will do the same for you).
