    Installing Blackhole 1.7.9

    My last effort at installing BH lasted a mere 2 minutes, hoping this goes a little better, , just fancied a wee change to see what it's all about.
    Still a Vix Fan Boy, so rest easy troops...

    Oh And May The Force Be With You.........

    Installed ok, took a few mins to suss out the cam etc, but seems ok.
    The epg is not as good as the Vix epg, unless Im doing something wrong, doesn't show a grid like the proper sky/vix image just have to press blue button for next ?, thats in multi epg :-(
    Any pointers Blackhole fan boys & girls ?

      Have you configured the included crossepg up? get your channel list up and press either No 3 or blue to get multi epg

                  Your screen shot looks like you are pressing the epg button first which you don't do, you press either ok or bouquet buttons then go into a bouquet so the list is showing ie movies then you should get choices at the bottom 2 is for single epg 3 is for multi epg like this, the second is what you get when you press No3 (multi epg)
                  its from a dm800 but its nearly the same on a vu duo.

                          I have noticed 1.7.2 doesn't recognise all shared folders either on windows pc. It gets most of them but you could try doing the mount point manually which I'm sure you passed on your way to network scan
                          TRY DROPBOX 2GB + 500mb FREE ONLINE STORAGE with public sharing and 500mb for me
