The main problem is find a DVB-S USB device with compatible drivers If you have a device please post producer and model and I will verify the compatibility with Linux (and BH of course)

Great job, thanks.

Every day I am happier with this Vu + Solo

Hello.

I have downloaded image from day one.
I have installed image in flash.
Everything is ok, but as i was looking at languages when I change cursor
down from English some languages was corrupt, missing letter or
just blank spaces.
Is this my downloaded file problem or image supports only English?
I have flashed image twice to make sure.
When i install any Army Skin from addon manager all is showing perfect.
I have not tried other skins yet.

Regards.

This is a problem of fonts / characters used by skin
rather than image.
If the skin does not support the language you need you can use the other skins
with fonts / characters for your language .

hi dear friends

thanks

I suggest to use an external USB DVD Reader/Writer with external CA power supply.

This is a problem of fonts / characters used by skin
rather than image.
If the skin does not support the language you need you can use the other skins
with fonts / characters for your language .

The image default skin supports only English ?
The language Setup menu, gives many more languages to select from.
Just after installing new image, setup wizard, prompts you to select language.
When i move the cursor down from English and selecting other languages
they display strange characters or blank spaces (See picture) !

But when i Install Army curve skin (same as default) from addons manager everything is showing correctly, all languages display proper characters.

As I said before I have installed image twice to confirm issue.
Maybe is a faulty download, if so please confirm, proper
default skin language selection so I will download again.

I have to mention, when selecting
Green-Yellow Download Manager - Languages,
Panel is empty. Is this OK?

Regards.

It's a font issue.
Some characters are not present in all font.

All Army skins on server have been updated and now they use fonts compatible with all languages.

[fabrizio432]

hi dear friends

where can i find dvd burn plugin for black hole to install manually?

thanks

I'm interested in that plugin too.
Downloaded Burndvd from menu->pugins->extension manager->recordings but when I start burning (pressing REC), it returns an error message about python image.
Actually I'm interest in creating ISO image on hdd. Not tested with a real dvd burner.
Any help?


Maybe's better to move this post under plugin forum...

Thank you for replying.
Please clarify to me.
1) Be default image supports only English ?
2) After installing image I MUST download Skin to support other languages ?
3) BH addons Languages, why is it empty ?

Thank you.

Thank you.

1) No, the image supports all the languages you can select into language panel.
2) You should not need to change skin with the last image.
3) It's empty becouse there are not new languages to add.
