    • ViX QuickEPG - This is VIXs' version of QuickZap. You can see the full epg data for the channel, not just now and next. Picons work within QuickEPG. Also includes channel preview.
    • ViX Quick Event Info - This is the new way to receive the event info on the ViX image. Press OK button once to get the info bar up, press it once more (i.e. a second time) to receive the information about what is currently showing...
    • ViX Single EPG (with channel preview) - The is new and unique to vix, after you open the ViX single EPG (short RED) you can view the 7 day epg for that channel, now to see another channels epg, either use the Channel up/down buttons on your remote or just key in the channel number. if you want to preview the channel your currently viewing the EPG for (ie you want to see what the current program is like) just press 'OK' on your remote, this will change to that channel showing you the program in the small video window. if you don't like it, go find another channel to preview by keying in new channel number (or up/down buttons). or if you do like it and want to go fullscreen on it, just press 'OK' again. but if you feel you want to return to the original channel you where watching (whilst still in ViX Single EPG) just press 'EXIT" button, this will return to where you where before you entered ViX Single EPG)

    • AutoTimer plugin integrated into image - Create an AutoTimer (Series Link), using Blue button in Current Channel EPG info.
    • XMLTV EPG Importer - Thanks to Rytec for his support on this Importer. This has been updated so that the Import automatically updates itself from the servers, so there is no need to download and install new source files. Thanks to Rytec for the idea and andyblac for coding it.
    • CrossEPG included in image as default - Settings for this can be found in Menu -> Setup -> VIX -> CrossEPG.
    • EPG Download from transponders - This incorporates the EIT, MHW, FREESAT, NetMed & VIASAT downloads. To enable/disable, change your settings in the Menu -> Setup -> System -> Customise.
    • EPG load patch - Image patched to allow EPG data to be loaded without the need for a restart.
    • WebInterface and Help Screens - The Web Interface Remote Control correctly shows the Vu+ remote control, with all buttons mapped correctly. As well as this, in all Help screens, the remote control has been updated to the Vu+, and all references of Dreambox removed.
    • Added option to disable the spinner (egg timer) - Change the setting of "Show Animation while busy" in Menu -> Setup -> System -> Customise.

    • Subserivice Option - This option allows you to assign the Subservice shortcut to a long green press. To change this option, go to VIX Menu -> VIX Setup.

    Default Stop the ViX Team Spinner appearing every 30 mins

    Hi,

    Ok, it might not annoy anyone else, but I have the ViX Team Spinner appearing in the top left corner nearly every 30 mins.

    It is more annoying than the annoying station water mark.

    If it can be turned off, then it is certainly a good reason NOT to use their image.

    So, is there a way to turn it off, or do i just go back to black Hole images?

    Thansk,
    Rob

    You must have something setup incorrectly. The spinner should only appear when the duo is busy with something starting up. That said, you can turn it off

    Menu > Setup > System > Customize

    Set "Show animation while busy" to no. Read post 1

    no it should not but it does seem to make a difference to a lot of people. especially when those people have crammed the box with plugins galore.

    So we should turn the attachment system on just for you because you are a member of Vix team ?

    If this is so difficult (seems to work for every other person here...most I am sure of who dont have your level of technical knowledge), you could just use your own hosted image by putting image code in front of it like the example below.

    eg, [img]url of image[/img] . But then you have already done this at least twice in your original post, so I'm not telling you anything new

    absolutely not and i would not ask you to either, i did not include images as the way i read the rules it was not permitted. and i certainly did not want to step foul of the rules. as for the VIX logo honestly i forgot it was there i was more concerned with getting rid of all the screenshot images. also at the time i posted that image i was on a mobile web and walk style dongle for my internet and could not spare the time nor bandwidth to upload the images to a external site.

    Fair enough. No, you are not breaking any rules hotlinking images such as what you have done with the vix image etc, by all means, if you have some screen shots on your own site there is no problem hotlinking them in to your post. You didnt have to get rid of them if thats what you did for that reason. No problem with that, though images only last as long as they are hosted at that site. For that reason we recommend image shack, as any pics uploaded here go in to Austech's imageshack account. We do a similar thing with files, if they are uploaded to MegaUpload through our filebox they go in to our account and are hotlinked so users can download at fullspeed with no waiting.

    Simply, we dont host files and pictures on our server for storage and mainly legal reasons. Our rule on this is :

    3. Austech has disabled its attachment system for legal reasons and encourages the use of third party sites to host files and photos. See the sticky post in all forums in regards to this. Austech takes no responsibility for the content of third party link contents. Links to files or posts on other forums that have compulsory registration to view or download are not accepted and will be deleted. We use and recommend Megaupload for file hosting and an uploader has been embedded in to the reply box on threads. We recommend Imageshack for picture hosting and a uploader box is also imbedded in to the reply section for this reason.

    Hope this makes sense and clears things up

    Yep, it's easily the best image I've tested.

    One bonus is the softcam setup. Simply add as many softcams into usr/softcam/ and name them whatever you like. There's no need to create scripts or anything, simply choose which cams you want to autostart from the autostart menu.

    The order the cams start in is determined by the order that you have listed in the softcam autostart menu (from top to bottom).
