Sweet so I should still get me self a vu+ duo2 when they are out

Cheers mate

definately if thats what you want box to do but you have lots more reading to do linux boxes are not plug and play like your 5402

I understand Linux boxes better than this plug and play thing

How do you mean freezing and i hope this question does not lead to what the ADDON does, have you enabled the internal fan at all in the menu as it can be turned on and off

Hi, could you please tell me where is the option to check the fan is on/off? Can't find it....
I have another question please, how many programs can I record at the same time under the same transponder? Can I watch another channel meantime? I have tried recording 2 programs under same transponder but the screen went black and box froze displaying a number 8 on the box round digital display. When I tried to record 3 programs at the same time , the box asked me to cancel one?
Many thanks

you are answering your own question
and you can record a channel and watch an other as long as it's on the same transponder while recording press okay and the channellist will apear all de dark displayed channels you can watch at the same time all grey displayed channels you can't.
you could check the fan in front display setting the option to turn it on/off used to be there with older patches but i don't see it any more with the newer patches

To stop your tm 5402, go back to firmware 1.17, I had a few people with 5402's freezing on 1.20, and since I went back to 1.17, I haven't had a single report of a box locking up.

Personally, my own 5402 seems to be running very well on 1.25, trial and error I guess.

I am running firmware 117 on my 5402hd box after having problems with the other firmwares and just lately my box has started freezing up where I have to turn it off at the back. I think its a overheating problem as its generally freezes when the heating is on and my tv cabinet is situated near a radiator. I did have my fan switched off because it was kinda noisy but have it back on for now. 117 has been the smoothest running firmware for my box though.

125p works well, and 126p meant to the best.

[scouse1742]

tried those manic , but for me every latest patch freezes on hd channels every thirty seconds or so , so i stick with 117p

[Manic01]

For you maybe, not for others.

make sure to do the factory resets before and after patching
and don't forget to backup your channel list first

yeh , weve been through all of that in another post & 117 was the best outcome
