won't record programs

[bigyin43]

just tried 3.0.753 still says starting

 

[bigyin43]

yes 500 gb i believe

 

[bigyin43]

Do you have an hard drive in the Duo?

yes 500Gb does that make a difference , anything else to try please

 

[Andy_Hazza]

Can you please unscrew your casing and inside the Vu+ Duo pull out the sata cable from your hard drive. Turn the box off when you do this. When done that try reflashing again with build 3.0.753 please.

 

[Andy_Hazza]

You can leave the casing off while you reflash without hdd attached, I just want to narrow things down for you.

 

[bigyin43]

just trying that, at least casing not too difficult to remove

still stuck at starting

it says on top of case to use only vu+duo software, but it was working with openvix before, just stopped recording , and crashing the software

 

[Andy_Hazza]

hhmmmmm. Usually by un attaching the hard drive and reflashing would point to a possible clone box. On the back of the receiver you don't have a sticker saying 2.0 or 3.0?

 

[Andy_Hazza]

Are you reflashing using the front usb port and with no other usb's attached in the rear ports. Can you confirm?

 

[bigyin43]

v 3.2 on sticker

just using front usb, is it worth trying a rear one ?

shall i reattach hard drive, and replase casing ?

 

[Andy_Hazza]

Unfortunately the sticker says its a clone box. This forum won't offer support on clones. A friend of mine gave me a cloned Duo box to update the software which he was un aware of and I wasn't aware until further investigation and using a cloned version software got the box running again. If you PM me I will try and point you in the right direction, as no support will be given here, even though it's through no fault of yours.

 

[Andy_Hazza]

Any joy with sorting your Duo?

 

[bigyin43]

booted up, but now i got to try to find plug ins , scan channels etc.. but i got it started

thanks

any more help appreciated

 

[Andy_Hazza]

Use the in built channel maker. Go to Menu, Setup, Service Searching, ABM (AutoBouquetsMaker). Once setup correctly then setup to scan daily at say 04:00am, Then setup the crossEPG to scan say at 04:10am.
