Black Hole Vu+ Duo2 2.1.5

GRML4D

Vu+ Newbie
as far as i saw , the vu+ duo2 seems to not work as well as the others boxes ...
am i right ?
beside that , can you tell more about plugins that are embedded in the image and the one that can be installed later by download .
some links to how to use them could be a good idea for newcomers ou new-users of BH fw...
that could be good to see a table showing the difference with the official firmware .

Warning: Previous personal backups are not compatible with this image. Please use software manager to backup your settings before you flash.

Known Issues: Xbmc External Player not working yet.


Note for Meoboot and OpenGL images:
Because OpenGL images have a different boot procedure and the framebuffer is loaded at the end of rcS it is not possible to have the Bootmenu.
For this reason to change image you have to go into Meoboot plugin, select the image you want to boot and click on "Boot Image" button.

i have some troubles with plugins so i need to have some answers .
i used dreambox control center E2 and updated its plugins list
i saw that it download the list from the officials vu+ servers [ but did not recognized the opera plugin in the dcc e2 list]
so i had a look of the downloadable plugins using the vu+ duo2 .... the first that i wanted to install is : backupsuiteusb . the line below the name seems to says it was built the 28 november of 2012 .
to get more information about what it backups i searched the web with : enigma 2 plugin backupsuiteusb
first result shows the same plugin but this one was compiled few days ago
the fourth one is showing a linuxsat-support topic , in this one the last page shows a release made the 08-08-2014 and named Backupsuite 17.8

i wonder if the linuxsat plugins are useable with the BH firmware and if the downloadable plugins by the duo2 are the latest one or not ?

I think you first need to look around inside the BH image.

Opera is already in

Look in Black Hole Speed Up and plugins / addons already in the image

then look in

green>>Yellow button Addons Download Manager >> Black Hole Addons Plugins
and Black Hole Feeds Plugins
then
possible additions in software management (Setup >> Software management)

Different backup options
in Backup Menu and software managment

e.t.c e.t.c

yesterday i tried to install the backup of my tv channels with dreamboxedit but it failed
when i used it for the backup it said a file was having error and that was corrected...
so i did a scan during afternoon .

i post again because this morning i had troubles with the clock
as you can see with thumbnails below the vu+duo2 can set a wrong clock and keep it : i mean i found no way to change it .



P1130491 (FILEminimizer).JPG P1130492 (FILEminimizer).JPG

so for the BH2.1.6 , i would like to find an option for the first tv channel that is used when the powered on .
[i have no idea how the duo2 select it but if it a channel of turksat 42.5 then the clock is not "Nice" ] .

a good second new option could be to turn off the two displays or at least a screen saver like ssstars.scr of windows nt4 or up

Try this method that could help:
select whatever channel that has the correct time and date and then turn off the receiver normally.
At the next power on you should have the correct time.

In the standby state you could decide which display to keep going or have both turned off.

Thanks. But I have a queston. Why not add a time option that allows users to select how to set time, such as form TP(Transponder) time or NTP server.

Having real issues with screen sizes - Previous image was working fine with ******* and Cool TV Guide now neither or these display correctly. Cool is central but not full screen and very small. ******* is full screen but squashed into the top left of screen.
Both worked fine on previous BH image, these are the only 2 plugins I have tried.

Apart from that it looks good

Anyone else having similar issues?


Cheers
