Zgemma H2.S OpenVIX (latest) Sky Themed Image

[fudge1]

Hi Guys hi take no credit what so ever for as i is not my backup,

I have created an image of my H2.S with a very Sky oriented theme! If you want it download it from:



It is fully configured to Sky, including Auto Bouqet, EPG set to read from HDD plugged in to the back USB port and. It has a customised version of the brilliant skin Slyk1 skin to make it look as close to Sky as possible.

Some screen shots below:

Graphical EPG

so first unrar the file and use ur fat32 formatted standard usb to put the "zgemma" folder on.
turn off box
insert flash usb in rear
boot up. Box should take 4-10 minutes to flash and MAY say FLASH on front when flashing. occasionally when flashing the front panel may remain blank, just give it 15 minutes in case. IT MAY STILL BE FLASHING.
box will reboot when finished
No need to press front power button or anything.

OK. Basically u need a usb or hard drive that can be wiped and devoted to the box.
That will store program guide and recordings and timeshift to rewind TV etc.
4gb is minimum I'd recommend. But more is better.
Once image is flashed and u edit ur ~~~~~~~.list file in usr/keys or ~~~~~.cfg in /etc with DCC.
Get the permanent USB/hdd onto a PC and quick format it.

Box off.
Usb in rear.
Box on.
