Hi,

I have a Vu+ Uno and I would like to install a BH 1.7.8 image light for the first time.

I have already upgraded the FPGA to 4.5 but the original image has never been replaced.

Any links or instructions how this is done will be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Giorgos

I shall certainly try it.

You are right, for Vu+Uno the directory has to be named uno not duo.

Concerning Vu+ Uno, the firmware update will NOT start automatically. You have to press CH- button on the front panel of the receiver when prompted after turning on...

With Duo and Solo the flash process start automatically. With Uno and Ultimo the user must press CH- on the box to start flash from USB.

Yes, after installing a new image you need to setup the box again.

However, if you have an hdd or an usb stick connected to your box, you backup your settings by Software Manager or, if you are using a Black Hole image, by BH Personal Backup.
Obviously, after installing the new image, you have to restore the backup.
