Blank scan and HDD movies freezing

T

Tushar Patel

Vu+ Newbie
Hi Can anyone help me, apologies if i am putting this in the wrong place.
I have a VU duo running 2.0.2 rev. D

I have 2 questions : i have added a 2TB HDD so that i can watch movies that i transfer to it, but when i play them after about 10-15mins its starts to bring up the loading icon and then the movies go into slow motion and freeze. I have to turn the box off from the back for it to respond.

The other question is that is there anything called blank scan? i am trying to find out if there is a way of updating those channels which has a frequency change automatically?

thanks a million for all your help.

regards
 
Nobody will answer to you for 2.0.2 D question in 2.0.8 thread ;).
So, update to 2.0.8 and try again your HDD.
Blank scan? Do you mean Blind Scan (as I remember, not supported by Duo) or FastScan (has to be supported by provider)?
 
Thanks I have updated to 2.0.8 but the problem with playing movies from hdd is still there. Any ideas?

I will try fast scan, is this a plug in? Where do I get it from.
Thanks a million for your help.

You need to reformat it so you will lose all recordings (unless you backup to pc)

You need to press > menu>setup>system>hard drive> initialisation> press ok on your HDD... Then when you see initise in red in box press RED BUTTON

Once formatted you will need to remount your HDD

Blue button x2>devices manager>red button and mount your HDD as media/hdd
 
Thanks BH lover, i went through this process when i first installed the HDD, but there have been a bit of recordings since not much though. I will try this again over the weekend and transfer movies and try again.
I will let you know how i get on.
thanks again.
regards,
