Yes, as an IT technician I always reboot. I also set the permissions as 755: is it right?
I also installed the latest L4L version.
About bootloader: what do you mean exactly? What file should I flash?
The CFE bootloader for VUPLUS DUO2 --> Download from here -->
http://www.vuplus-community.net/board/threads/duo2-cfe-bootloader-update.17179/
If you haven´t fixed yet the VFD Display --> you could try too ---> Firmware upgrade for VFD ---> Using it with your remote control --> check the next screens:
1) - Press <Menu>
Choose Plugins and press <OK> --> Drop down, until you get this screen:
2) - Press Ok , you will get the next screen:
Press <BLUE KEY> to download the files:
When the loaded has completed you should see the next 2 files:
-
duo2.bin.vfd
-
duo2.bin.vfd.md5 ( file of checksum control )
Select the first one (
duo2.bin.vfd ) and upgrade --> it takes 30 seconds ---> when done ( 100% completed --> you should be prmpted with a message "
sucess "), press <OK>, you should be asked to delete the bin data, choose YES, the STB will reboot in 9 seconds.
NOTE: Don´t press nothing or turn off until it done!
After that ... your VFD must be fixed!
... otherwise --> ... you can try install a new fresh image ... to see if it fixed ... or sadly ... you must have an hardware problem.
