View Full Version : Vu+DuoV2 Vix 2.3 Kernel 3.11 Freeze/Reboot on channel stream

Hi everyone,

I have a Vu+Duo v2 with Vix 2.3.153 image (kernel 3.11)
Internal harddrive of 500gb (old Sky HD for record and timeshift)
External Harddrive of 2TB as Media Player via the box (also for XBMC on PC)
USB for Picons and EPG
CCCam 2.3.0_1.0, mgcamd 1.35a_1.0-r3 and Oscam 1.00.5953_1.0
WebInterface and OpenWebIf addon (for channel access and stream)
Original Power cable as well as Sky power cable (both works)

The box is brand new and works great (so far on FTA channels)
My only problem is that when streaming the channels on lets say, my Iphone4S , my Touchpad or my SGS2), or on the PC/laptop the box freezes, the actual channel it was on (on the box) still works but no way to change, switch off or anything, the VIX log (rotating) appear on the top left corner and the only way to get the box back to working order, it needs to be fully switched off (power off then on via power switch at the back)

It seems something to do with the stream, maybe when I try to exit from the stream or close the app (iphone or touchpad) it crashes (there is no error message, no logs, just crash)
Also the same problem appear when the box is in standby mode, streaming causes issue..


I have tried to reimage but same problem
Do you think another image might be better like VTI or BlackHole or else?

Did anyone of you experience the same issue or know how to overcome this?

Please assist if possible

Regards
Nimo

try with the ViX 2.4 image as we no longer support, update nor maintain ViX 2.3.

Is it safe to use the latest build (beta 143) os best flash with original build 96?

Of course all beta re not safe but in case some of you already tested and recommend it?

Thanks everyone,

I am now on Vix 2.4, latest build (143) and the stream is playing correctly for all (via different medium) apart from the xbmc one, it works but as soon as I stop the stream in the iphone, it crashes the box, freeze (current channel works but cant change anything, no logs created, maybe need to leave the box for sometime to get them)

So far, XBMC on PC, WebInterface as well as OpenWefIf, DreamBox (on iPhone4s), DreamDroid and Daroon on android (Touchpad and SGS2) are playing fine!!

Could this be an issue of what interface is used (WebInterface or OpenWebIf)?
The new vix 2.3 as well as 2.4 are using the OpenWebIf but WebInterface should also be ok? Maybe not compabible with certain device or port..
