    Cloud iBox

    Hi, just recently ordered a cloud iBox which I've heard is a clone version of the vu+ solo.

    I've heard about heat issues with this but the seller told me this one has a fan installed.

    Just wanted to know what the best image for the box is and if its installed the same way as a vu+ solo would be done.

    Thanks

    There is quite a large thread on the Cloud iBox here: http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...-clone-309754/ but yes as you stated it is literally a Vu Solo clone so can run the same images and updates the same Via USB

          Hi, do the fan turn off in standby ? as we know the issues with DM800HD with noisy fans, would love to give these a try with vix 3.0 image, and price is very low

            The Fan should Auto Standby should be in the Plugin section of what ever image you have installed if not just install the plugin

              oh ok, i aint got one of these yet, was wondering the DM800Pro didn't need any plugin for the fan to go into standby , my preferred image is vix 3 would that have the auto standby for fan ?

              Thanks

                The Fan setting will be in the main menu setup on Vix
