Black Hole Vu+ Solo2 2.0.9

I've had my Solo2 for two weeks now. It has frozen on two occassions now and I do not watch that much. The only thing I can do then is switch the box off/on to get it working. The first time was watching TV the screen stood still while audio played on. The second time was watching back a recording, screen frozen and no sound.
Also when looking back recordings from HDD (BBC's Match of the Day and Football League Show) I notice loads of screenerrors.

I updated 2.0.5.3 to 2.0.9 today and everything is great besides one thing.
Font of srt subtitles is small,like in default 2.0.5 version.
In 2.0.5.3 it was much bigger and prettier.
Can it be somehow changed in skin or something?

Yes, in Setup menu you have a dedicated option for "Subtitles".

There you can setup his size, and put the best value for you.

I think they work too for hdd movies.

If dont work, you allways may change directly in "skin.xml"

Dont remember what's the tag you must change, but do a search for "subtitle" on it, and you got it.

You're right! Size is for srt subtitles and not for dvb subs!

Thanks!

This Image is very Good, The Only think I do not Like is:
When you are on Favourites Channels, Let say Sky Sport Italy 1, and you press the Red Button to go to All Channels, it Take you to the First Channel which is Fun Spice Hotbird on my Case, I think that not Good, I would like to get me to the Same channels name which is S Channels, same with the Channel you are, not on the first Channel, because this is how it goes with all other Images, Hopefully Blackhole will change this on Next Image, Thanks.

I have the same issues. But after I change the HDMI cable, never happen again !

I'm going to pull my hair out... well what i have left of it! Got a new Solo 2 today to replace my aging VU Duo. Had it preflashed from my supplier with blackhole 2.0.9, plugged it in, went through the set up and scanned for channels but only finding 300 channels each time. My setup is, Simple, Single, 28.2E and no to send DiSEqC. I know my dish is fin because if i plug my VU duo back in i get all the channels that are missing on the vu solo2. Sorry if im posting this in the wrong place but im bit of an amateur at this but know just enough to get me going. Any help is greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just tested Transcoding on WLAN, HD crypted channel, Transcode - 1Mbps 25 fps, Android device, works great. I don't have any problems :D

Hi Paolino, which settings did you use in the transcoding plugin? i.e bitrate and framerate to acheive a hd stream?
