Hello. I am owner of VU+ Duo2. There is in manufacturer specifications of this box 2GB RAM and 1GB flash. But in BH 2.0.4 info panel I can see that there is only 1GB RAM and 512MB flash. See screenshots below.

Have you any explanation of this fact? Regards.

Do not believe the info from BH 2.04, better open your box and see with your eyes :)

I don't think that's the correct way to obtain this information: if there's a problem in BH is better to send the info to the developers. ;)

RAM: 1Gb avaiable for OS (Linux) + 1Gb avaiable for graphic engine = 2Gb
FLASH: 512Mb (chip1) avaiable + 512Mb (chip2) not yet initialized but present in the mainboard.

So the second chip is actually unuseable: will it be in the future? Is a firmware problem?

The chip can be used (it's detected correctly by CFE and it's avaiable to Linux OS as MTD partition).
The correct and fastest way is to write directly to Vu+ about that.
Remember that there is not any kind of bug about that.
