Few simple questions about vu+ solo

Johhhnnn

Vu+ Newbie
Hi all,
Ive just got a vu+ solo but im a complete newbie and i need help with a few things. Ive flashed the box with blackhole 1.6 and installed ccam which is all working fine. But im stuck now with these questions:
1) How do i mount a share on my NAS use as my hdd to use PVR functions.
2) The EPG is terrible! it only shows a now and next (and doesnt even show this unless you have already watched that channel! Could someone explain how to use a better EPG with a 7 day listing?
3) What is swap space and do i need it?
Cheers guys and sorry for all the questions!

1. Menu/setup/system/network/network browser
From here you can mount your NAS.
2. Make sure you have a USB plugged in and make sure you have mounted it via devices manager ( Blue Button x2 ), then blue button/red button/ select global settings and make sure you select media/usb/epg.dat - then red button to save. Lastly select the provider you want, for sky uk I use satmate sky.UK press OK the yellow button to download.
3. For normal use you do not need a swap but there is no harm in it.
