Step by step setup guide vu+duo2 with blackhole

[Mark Holland]

Hi, I am new to Linux sat receivers and recently purchased a vu+duo2 box. I've installed black hole on it but want to make it more user friendly. Could someone point me in the direction of an easy to navigate good looking bouquet as close to sky's as possible, how to install it. Also need help on setting up epg, record like sky series link on sky. Thanks in advance. Any pointers welcome as like I said I'm a newbie!

As per the Forum Rules we are not allowed to discuss most of your post.
A VU+ Duo 2 receiver is capable of far more than any basic satellite receiver, that is provided free. Try reading some of the guides:

First set up some Bouquets, which are just favourites, and move some of your channels to the appropriate Bouquet.
Popular Bouquets usually include Films, Sports, Music, General Entertainment, but you can name them anything you want.

You can also change the appearance, by loading a different skin, and various options by going into the menu, Setup, System, Customize, change the top heading to Expert and you will discover numerous options you can alter.

Also look at the various EPG options,, you can download, and install.
