    Thanks lads, thats just confirmed it for me. Was considering other boxes like the Mutant 2400 and Xtrend 8000 but I think the VU Solo2 is my preferred choice.

    I will see how the Wetek gets on for a few weeks then most likey get myself one of the Solo2's:D

    The best thing about the solo 2 is the amount of images and add ons available for it. You can do everything with them.

    I been playing around with this aswell for past couple days the image itself is really good but I noticed in kodi that I couldn't type with keyboard or the onboard keyboard didn't display have you noticed this? I might just try a new flash of it over the weekend see if the problem still persist.

    Anyone else tried hyperion 5.1 for solo2??
    It was my default image on alien 2 box from the start it was most reliable and fastest of all of them but didn't realise I could get it on solo2 then I just happened on it while looking for something else and installed a fresh image from pkteam and built it up and everything is so smooth and nice.

    Only thing I can't get for it is xbmc launcher I can't find it anywhere has anyone any ideas where to get it from??

    My little 1 managed to rip the inlay off my remote, the remote still works perfectly just it doesn't look the best, anyone have a link for a cheap replacement, not an OEM 1 as I want to turn the TV on and off with it as well.

    Dont know if anyone seen this or not but its a guide to setting up your vu+ remote to work the power and volume and source button for your TV I can't remember where I found it so I've uploaded it to Dropbox if anyone needs it.

    Hi Folks,

    I acquired and have been using a VU+ Solo SE receiver since November last year. (A clone, I am told!)

    It has been working great and I had all the channels until a couple of days ago.
    (Using blackhole on enigma 2)

    I updated all plugins by mistake and now none of the channels are showing!

    My tuner configuration is currentlyas follows-

    Configuration Mode - Simple
    Mode- Single
    Satellite - 28.2 Astra 2E/2F/2G
    Send DiSEqC- no

    Whenever I attempt to scan, get a green screen! "We are really sorry... problem with stb software"

    I'm relatively new to the world of Satelite receivers Any help in getting me back to where I was would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

    If you have a look under a users profile picture you will see an Adverts link, this will bring you directly to the users adverts profile which will have all their for sale items lists.

    I was pondering with the idea of selling my original solo 2 with a 1tb hard-drive 12 month sub updated to the most up-to date vix software and am just wondering what would be a fair price to sell it for thanks

    50 quid ill buy it ;) shake hands??? ;);)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 251 ✭✭bored_stupid


    @smokin ace would be asking 250 and would settle 230/220 the lowest price just don,t inclued the 12 month thingy .

    Also how old is your box have you still got the recipt and how long left on your boxes warranty .

    And you say your pondering are you looking to upgrade or are you having trouble with your box as Solo2 is a great little box .

    Heres openatv vu solo2 5.3 Betas you will find alot of stuff working well on this .

    No there's nothing wrong with the box it's 1000% and any test is welcome I'm just thinking about upgrading to the solo 4k it looks a very nice piece of kit


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 251 ✭✭bored_stupid
