Hi guys want to buy vu+solo a receiver and was wondering is it worth to give money for clone or collect more money and buy an original
I have some knowledge but certainly am not an expert
thank you

[meshja]

Tell, please, from what system to update firmware clone Vu+duo, Windows 7 or XP better?

[jojo77]

hi does anyone have the apollo / firmware for vu+ duo v3
i thought this was a genuine one when i bought it turns out its not

[Dub12Dave]

Is there any way to tell a vu+duo clone from an original? If I get a vu+ thinking it is original and it turns out to be a clone is there firmware for this. When I plug in a vu+ is there a way to check the software to see if it is original, Thanks.

if you buy a clone and it has a the v2 sticker on it
or you have updated it with the rs232 board and null
modem cable. clone boxes can then use any genuine image
also clones have a sticker with a website to get images they
have tested, original boxes dont have the rs232 board or null cable
with them, just be careful if you buy from the bay it could have had
the sticker the rs232 and null modem cable removed and it could be
a clone. and most important if you want a genuine box,only buy
from recognised vu dealers.

Thanks for the reply benny/9 I am buying this from a guy I kinda know and he insists it's original as it has Blackhole 1.7.3 on it as well as a 1tb hard drive, so if it does have this image on it will it be original? he also said he will open it up and we can both check the insides to have a look at boards etc.

im not sure if this is true with the duo but the solo clone remote doesnt say vu+ on it were the original does... maybe @RD can confirm it for you?, regards mdt

Hi you could use return the love plugin on blackhole 1.7.3 to check box is original when he brings it and connects it. I wouldn't try it if it is clone but let him do it. The clone remotes are also a bit clicky compared to real one.

hi mdt
i just checked the solos i got and controllers are same as genuine all say vu+ on them

as do the duo,s i have but im starting to think these clones are being built in a few different places as i have seen a few posts now with some saying the controllers are not as good as genuine ones

all the controllers i have look no different than any pics i have seen of genuine ones

just be careful between the genuine and clone
the clone vu duo remote does have vu+ on it
but some buttons are in different positions than
the original remote. and i have seen posts saying
he clone works better with a genuine remote but
the one i had worked first class, as for the images
clones once updated use genuine images so dont take
it for granted that the latest image gaurantee's it's a
original box

[potrobber]

clones run black hole 1.7.3 so why would saying it has 1.7.3 on mean its genuine

not that it is not a real duo but be careful there was pics on here somwhere dell xps put on of real duo check them

[bloto23]

vix is nice, but i prefer black hole 1.7.3 or 1.7.2 and I running it on made in chaina duo.

Just be carefull with fan option if u set it to stanby run for let say 5s then go off for 1m, it will not work at all.
Just leave the fan option as it is.

If u want to install HDD inside, dont waste your time with 3.5inch as u may reach temp of 60Cels... go with 2.5 inch and temp in my case never go above 30C
I fitted it using bracket for ssd HDD
