VIX Team Vu+ Solo Image v1.0 - 01/11/2010

VIX-Logo.png


New VIX Image - v1.0
31/10/2010 - OE1.6


From VIX Team

Based on Official 5.3 Image

Enigma: 04-10-2010-experimental.
Enigma Plugins: 04-10-2010.
GCC Version: 4.4.3.

Team VIX Enhancements

This image has been written based upon bringing similar functionality to the vu+ solo as the vu+ duo... Andy's been busy optimising code from the duo to ensure that it works just as great and well in the solo Big thanks to andy .

Here's all the functionality:

* VIX Solo 1.0 Bootlogos, Radio Logos and Shutdown Logos.
* Softcam Manager completely re-written to allow users to add any softcams that are not currently available in the plugins server. If a script is not necessary, then you can just copy the binary file over to /usr/softcam/. This will allow you to use the binary. If you need a script, then andy will explain how to do it . Also, with the new softcam manager, softcams will start in the order in which you add them to the autostart. So, if you want oscam and cccam to autostart, if you add cccam first, then oscam, cccam will always start before oscam (basically, pointless ). So, make sure you add them in the correct order!. Also, some users need mgcamd to update entitlements (and other similar cam usage might be required). So now, if you want to stop a cam, the autocam checker will not check for stopped cams. For example, if you stop any autostarted cams, then start mgcamd (or whichever cam is not autostarted) manually, this will stay running until you either manually stop it and start the required cams, or restart your box.
* VIX Device Manager optimised to work with the solo image.
* VIX Image Manager - Allows you to take backups of your current image and restore the image.
* New IPK Installer, just copy your .ipk fle into '/tmp' and go the menu option.
* VIX Overscan fix - If the menus do not show correctly on the screen, you can alter the numerical value in the Skin Settings menu, to change the location of the menus/items on screen to show the whole menu.
* VIX Swap Manager - Works with swap partitions and swap files. If you want to use a partition, you will manually need to create this yourself . For swap files, file sizes are limited to 64mb, as this is plenty for a swap file, and to enable stability with the solo image.
* RyVIX EPG Grabbers.
* CrossEPG Grabber - Includes latest image patch to import data without need for a restart.
* EIT, MHW, FREESAT & VIASAT EPG Download.
* Cron jobs supported - create the "root" file with the jobs you want to run in '/etc/crond/'
* Autotimer image integrated in to image. Work has been undertaken to ensure that autotimers search all info to ensure that it picks up all available epg data to catch an event... Seems to be working great :thumbsup:. Also, when you add an item to the autotimer, it will do a scan straight away to add all items to your timers. Finally, scanning for new autotimers will only take place when your machine is in standby mode. option can be turned off in settings.
* CoolTVGuide Plugin integrated to image - Use epg button to load.
* CCcam Info - Written specifically for image to help speed up skin loading. This is mainly used for the second info bar .
* Recorded items list modified to allow moving of items, browsing directories, etc. Works similarly to suomipoeka plugin. Can be selected to load via the recorded items button, or from the tv button.
* Permanent Timeshift Plugin integrated (Disabled by default, turn on via Timeshift settings).
* Integrated VirtualZap (long hold of OK button).
* Integrated EPG Search (yellow button).
* Update Manger - Use the online updates to update the image to the latest fixes.
* Wireless LAN Support
* Smargo Support
* Panic Button - Goes to channel number 1 in your channel list and clears browsing history


Button Mappings

* Short Red - Show current event info.
* Long Red - Show current channel EPG info.
* Short Green - Timers.
* Long Green - AutoTimer Timers.
* Short Yellow - EPG Search.
* Long Yellow - IMDB Database. < --- Currently not working - read Known Bugs
* Short Blue - Extensions.
* Long Blue - Plugins Menu.
* EPG - Opens the Cool TV EPG plugin


Known Bugs

* IMDB Plugin not working correctly - This is a problem with the original plugin, and as soon as an update is posted which fixes this, it will be made available via an online update...
* Motor moving image does not display - Problem with main driver, reported to VU+.
* Front VFD display showing the play button at the end of a video unless it is stopped manually - Problem with main driver, reported to VU+.
* ECM time on second info bar in skin is not currently shown - New version of CCcam needed for OE1.6. (libgcc_s.so fix is unstable).
* Installing other skins may cause the box to get into an infinite loop. Only skins in the feed are tested and recommended by us. If you want to use other skins, you will need to use OE1.6 skins (i.e. those created for VTI 2.0 or later), and may need adapting for the image (espcially in terms of the CCcam info displaying on the second info bar)...

VIX Team Vu+ Solo Image v1.1 - 05/12/2010

VIX-Logo.png


New VIX Image - v1.1
04/12/2010 - OE1.6

From VIX Team

Based on Official 5.4 Image

Enigma: 16-11-2010-experimental.
Enigma Plugins: 16-11-2010.
GCC Version: 4.4.3.
Drivers:

Sorry for all delays with this image, just wanted to ensure all working fine Hopefully we've removed most problems

Also, due to the image differences in original 5.3 and 5.4, an online update to VIX 1.1 will not be possible. A full flash will be required. Sorry guys...

Team VIX Enhancements

All the same Enhancements as the previous image, along with some extra enhancements, as listed below...

New Enhancements in v1.1

  • * VIX Solo 1.1 Bootlogos, Radio Logos and Shutdown Logos.
  • * New VIX Spinner icon.
  • * Softcam slightly rewritten - This was to remove the bug of CCcam crashing when using the Autostart feature. This was due to the way the check to ensure CCcam was running was working.
  • * Major rewritten core code to help with stability and memory issues that were in previous v1.1 build.
  • * Movie list has been re-written to allow threading - This is only used if you use more than one storage device/partition. Previously, if moving a file from one drive to another, the box would be frozen whilst the movie was moved. Now, the move happens in the background allowing you to carry on using your box. NB, only one move/delete will be allowed to happen at any one time. the button labels will go blank whilst the file action is in progress, moving through the movie list checks the progress, so you can then move another recording.
  • * VIX Cron Manager Added - There is now a front-end in the VIX Menu to allow you to add cronjobs. This is only a basic add which will run a certain command at a certain time everyday. If you want a more advanced cronjob added, you will need to manually edit the root file in /etc/cron/crontabs
  • * VIX-EPG - This is a simpler, faster version of CoolTVGuide, modified for the image. In our tests, this is faster than CoolTVGuide. If you still wish to use CoolTVGuide, you can install it from our feeds and you will need to edit the setting in the VIX Menu.
  • * VIX QuickEPG - This is VIXs' version of QuickZap. You can see the full epg data for the channel, not just now and next. Picons work within QuickEPG. You can change channels using the left/right keys or by keying the channel number, zap to a channel using OK, use up/down to scroll through the epg list an event at a time, or use channel +/- to scroll 2 at a time. By default, QuickEPG is entered by left/right. This can be changed in the VIX Menu Settings.
  • * NFS Server added to image and set to run automatically - To edit the folders you wish to share, you will need to edit file /etc/exports.
  • * OpenVPN added to image - This will need to be configured to your need first then use the manager to setup to autostart. The team have never used this, so it still needs testing, if you find any bugs supply a config file that we can use to test it with.
  • * Autosleep function added to VIX Menu - This allows you to automatically put the box to sleep at your chosen time. If for any reason you are still watching tv when box tries to go to sleep (e.g. you decided to stay up late to watch a film or something ), you can choose to cancel the sleep, and it will retry sleep at intervals set by you.
  • * VIX Network Manager added to VIX Menu - This allows you to stop and start certain network features. The features you can stop/start are: FTP, NFS, VPN, Samba and Telnet.
  • * Subserivice Option - This option allows you to assign the Subservice shortcut to a long green press. To change this option, go to VIX Menu -> VIX Setup.
  • * Softcam Manager added to extensions menu (short blue).
  • * VIX Menu added to extensions menu (short blue).
  • * Crossepg updated to latest version (svn 152) - This version allows download of rytec sources, as well as XEPGDB (hosted by krkaddoni) sources. XEPGDB is a new epg format, and seems much faster in testing See bug list below
  • * CCcam 2.2.0 & 2.2.1 added to feeds - This will allow the ECM times to work correctly in the image

Bug Fixes in v1.1

  • * Softcam manager crashed while checking to ensure CCcam was running - An interim fix for this was to ensure a swap file was running. This is not now required due to modifications of Softcam Manager.
  • * IMDB Plugin not working correctly - Plugin has been updated in new versions of enigma
  • * ECM Timings in CCcam - This is only fixed if you are using CCcam 2.2.0. If you are using this version of CCcam, then the ECM timings will be shown. If you are using an earlier version of CCcam, then you will not get anything showing in regards to ECM times. See screenshots below of second infobar as to where it will be shown.


Button Mappings

* Short Red - Show current event info.
* Long Red - Show current channel EPG.
* Short Green - Timers.
* Long Green - AutoTimer Timers.
* Short Yellow - EPG Search.
* Long Yellow - IMDB Database.
* Short Blue - Extensions.
* Long Blue - Plugins Menu.
* EPG - Opens VIX EPG.
* Left/Right - Opens VIX QuickEPG.

Known Bugs

* Crossepg - There has been a bug that the team has found with this version, where the box does not necessarily listen to your requests (i.e. once a day at 4am for example), and randomly downloads data. To try overcome this a little, we have put a check in to ensure that it will only download when the box is in standby. this why the need of Autostandby, so make sure you set Autostandby before the crossepg download time
* Motor moving image does not display - Problem with main driver, reported to VU+.
* Front VFD display showing the play button at the end of a video unless it is stopped manually - Problem with main driver, reported to VU+.
* Installing other skins may cause the box to get into an infinite loop. Only skins in the feed are tested and recommended by us. If you want to use other skins, you will need to use OE1.6 skins (i.e. those created for VTI 2.0 or later), and may need adapting for the image (espcially in terms of the CCcam info displaying on the second info bar)... Should we still have this as a bug?

Special thanks to the following members:

rytec - for his continued support.
CoolMan - for his CoolTVGuide plugin.
silverfox0786 - for his bootlogos.
irshchris - for testing sundtek drivers.

Thx VIX Team

VIX Team Vu+ Solo Image v2.0

VIX Team Vu+ Solo Image v2.0 - 09/02/2011






New VIX Image - v2.0
07/02/2011 - Open PLi 2.0


From VIX Team




Based on Open PLi 2.0

Yes, you read that correct. We have changed source (hence the long delay in release) to the Open PLi base. Many thanks to them for allowing us to use their base . If they wish to see any of the source code (without ViX specific enhancements of course ), just pm andyblac or Sicilian, and we will gladly send them on to them.

Since this is a completely new base, you will have to do a full fresh flash. Online updates will not work!!! Also, you will not be able to restore your settings from ViX 1.1 to 2.0. You will have to manually configure your box, as in testing, this has proven to cause many problems and instabilities in the box!

Enigma: 08-02-2011.
Enigma Plugins: 08-02-2011.
GCC Version: 4.4.4.
Drivers: 20110208

New Enhancements in v2.0

As already stated, this version of the release has a completely new base. This has required a lot of recoding to get the ViX enchancements working in the new PLi base... Of course, the image has the same enhancements as previous images, apart from some new additions
All new version number - Yup, we've moved on to version 2.0! This has nothing to do with the fact that the PLi version is 2.0... We felt that the addition of the dvb-t (wait for it keep reading ) warranted a brand new version number. This also puts the duo and solo in line number wise!
VIX Duo 2.0 Bootlogos, Radio Logos and Shutdown Logos (thanks again Silver )
Core changes to plugins and code to allow ViX features to work on Open PLi
USB DTT - The one you've all been waiting for! To install dvb-t, you just need to go to the plugin menu, and select the stick you have. This will then install the drivers for your stick*. You will then need to restart your receiver. Once restarted, go to Menu -> Setup -> Service Starting -> Tuner Config, and you should notice Tuner C as your USB DTT...
ViX Quick Event Info - This is the new way to receive the event info on the ViX image. Press OK button once to get the info bar up, press it once more (i.e. a second time) to receive the information about what is currently showing...
New ViX Single EPG (with channel preview) - The is new and unique to vix, after you open the ViX single EPG (short RED) you can view the 7 day epg for that channel, now to see another channels epg, either use the Channel up/down buttons on your remote or just key in the channel number. if you want to preview the channel your currently viewing the EPG for (ie you want to see what the current program is like) just press 'OK' on your remote, this will change to that channel showing you the program in the small video window. if you don't like it, go find another channel to preview by keying in new channel number (or up/down buttons). or if you do like it and want to go fullscreen on it, just press 'OK' again. but if you feel you want to return to the original channel you where watching (whilst still in ViX Single EPG) just press 'EXIT" button, this will return to where you where before you entered ViX Single EPG)
QuickEPG Updated to include channel preview - works as above
Debug Logs - This is to enable a better idea of what's been happening with the image for any crashes ... If your box crashes, check the /home/root/ folder, and look for a file that has the date/time modified as to when the box crashed. This can help find any bugs/issues easier To enable/disable this option, go to the ViX Settings. To clear the debug logs, choose yes. This will just delete the debug logs once. If you want to delete the logs again, just go back in to the menu, and change to yes again...
Bigger skin choice - OK, lots of people wanted a bigger choice of skins ... we've added lots more skins Also, most skins made for PLi 2.0 should work in ViX 2.0 also. If there are certain parts of the skin not edited for the ViX format (such as ViX menu, ViX Devices Manager, etc), then this should still work just fine. These menus have been hard coded to ensure that they will work if nothing included in to the skin...
Added option to disable ViX coloured buttons - This should ensure that if users want to use MultiQuick button plugin, it should work without issue
All of the PLi enhancements - This includes the infamous subtitles requested by many As well as auto audio/subtitle language selection, etc, etc).
Please also note that USB / ESATA devices NEED there mount points setup in Device Manager (green button whilst in Device Manager) in order for them to work correctly.

* Supported USB DVB-T:
Avermedia Volar HD Nano
Sundtek Media TV Pro
WinTV Nova T


Bug Fixes in v2.0
Motor moving image does not display - Fixed by Vu in latest drivers.
Installing other skins may cause the box to get into an infinite loop - Since moving over to the PLi image, changes have been made to the way the image works with skins. Now, most skins created for the PLi image should work on the ViX image.

Button Mappings
Short Red** & *** - Show current channel EPG info (ViX Single EPG).
Long Red*** - Show current event.
Short Green** & *** - Timers.
Long Green*** - AutoTimer Timers.
Short Yellow*** - EPG Search.
Long Yellow*** - IMDB Database.
Short Blue - Extensions.
Long Blue*** - Plugins Menu.
EPG - Opens ViX EPG.
Left/Right** - Opens ViX QuickEPG.

** Can be changed in ViX Menu
*** Can be turned off in ViX Menu

Known Bugs
Front VFD display showing the play button at the end of a video unless it is stopped manually - Problem with main driver, reported to VU+.
Few problems with WebIf Remote Control coloured buttons in timeshift/playback mode - E.G. The blue button decides to fast forward, not show the extensions menu.
Network mounts not remounting if the source goes offline - You should be able to go in to the network menu, and choose "Mount Again", but this doesn't seem to be working.

Special thanks to the following members:
rytec - for his continued support.
PLi Team for their great base image and allowing us to use it.
zoka.cc for his Picon sets
Coolman and all other developers for their plugins used in the feeds of this image.
All of the ViX Beta team for their hours of testing and dedication on getting this image and DTT working

ViX Team VU+ Solo Image v2.2-11/06/2011


Yt1FM.png


New VIX Image VU+ Solo - v2.2
11/06/2011 - Open ViX 2.2
Based on Open PLi 2.0

attachment.php


From VIX Team
​

Enigma: 11-06-2011.
Enigma Plugins: 11-06-2011.
GCC Version: 4.4.4.
Drivers: 20110610.

ViX is now embedded within the image even more. A lot of settings have been moved out of the ViX menus, and incorporated within the image. Settings from previous images may not be 100% compatible, and it might be best to re-setup your image without restoring system settings for 100% reliability.

If you have previously used NetworkBrowser to mount network mounts, please remove '/etc/enigma2/automounts.xml' BEFORE tying to setup news ones.

Team ViX Enchancements

ViX Bootlogos, Radio Logo.
ViX Team Spinner.
ViX Team ViX_HD Skin.
ViX Team softcam manager - Lots of changes have been made here. You can now choose whether you want to check whether your cams are running by pressing menu in the softcam screen. You can also check the status of your cam checks by pressing the info button. Also, lots of behind the scenes checks to ensure no restarts of cams when it is actually running.
ViX Image Manager Update - This has been overhauled, and now has the option of creating a schedule to do daily, weekly or every 30 days backups for you.
ViX Cron Manager Update - This has been updated to allow more detailed and specific cron jobs to be created.
ViX Single EPG (with channel preview) - This has been updated to now support picons.
ViX Release notes - This is just a little screen within the Menu -> Information -> About, that appears when you press EPG/Info button, to tell you the latest updates for the image.
ViX Update Checker - This is a feature that lets you know of any available online updates by a little globe symbol in the infobar. This is set to check every 12 hours whether there are any updates for the image (can be changed in settings). If so, the icon will change from inactive to active...
ViX Logs Manager - This allows you to manager your crashlogs and system logs (if enabled). If you have a crash, you can email your bugs to us directly from the image. Go to Menu -> Setup -> System -> Logs. When in the Logs Manager, you can edit the configuration to show your forum username, and your email address by pressing the Menu button. Please ensure you do this before submitting logs!
ViX Settings - These are now found in the main System Menu.
ViX Simple TV List - This is a simple selection to show your bouquet lists, just showing the channels and current event (if in EPG). To access the Simple TV List, do a long up/down arrow button press. You can customised it to be the default option instead of Full Screen Channel List, in which case, Up/Down buttons are reversed. It can also be set in the ViX Settings for the TV button.
AutoTimer plugin integrated into image - Create an AutoTimer (Series Link), using Blue button in Current Channel EPG info. This has been updated to use threading, so that it will work in the background. No more spinning when checking for lots of timers.

  • A second subtitle in AVI, MP4 etc doesn't show up. Debugging in E2 just stops.
  • In Partnerbox (remote TV-Player) the audiobutton causes a crash.6

ViX Team VU+ Solo Image v2.2.100 - 21/07/2011

Yt1FM.png


New VIX Image VU+ Solo - v2.2.100
21/07/2011 - Open ViX 2.2.100
Based on Open PLi 2.0

From VIX Team

Enigma: 21-07-2011.
Enigma Plugins: 21-07-2011.
GCCVersion: 4.4.4.
Kernel Version: 2.6.18.
Drivers: 20110708.

If you wish to perform an online update, then you will be able to upgrade your v2.2 image to v2.2.1 via the online functions. This full image is available for those who do not have online functionality on their box, or wish to perform a full reflash...

Team ViX Enchancements

New Features

BackupManager - Lets you create scheduled backups of your system files (not full Image like Image Manager).
RestoreWizard - This a wizard that detects and restores you backup (created with BackupManager), with option to restore your extra plugins.
ImageManager - Major code rewrite, now handled by Job task, view progress of image creation in extension list (blue button)
ViX Menu - Added PackageManagement & Software Update, so SoftwareManager is now not needed. It is also now translatable into different languages.
NetworkInadyn - Add new network setup screen Inadyn.
OScam/CCam Info - Added options to show in Extension List. (the Menu item will now only show IF the softcam is installed).
OnlineVersionCheck - Added option to disable online check by setting check value to '0' and set a maximun timer to 48 hours.
Recording List - Added a new option in MovieList Settings to use a "Slim" list like the "Slim" Channel slection screen.
EPG Graphical - This is now in core, no longer a plugin (was ViXEPG), added the option to show Bouquets on launch.
EPG Menu - Add Load/Save item, this allow you reload/save the EPG cache.
E2-Plugin's - Updated all to plugin's to the latest GIT from PLi.
ZAP Timer - This will create a zap timer (rather than a recording timer) for the selected event in the EPG/Single EPG etc. To activate this, select the event from the EPG, and do a long button press on the record button. This is a non-configurable timer, so will use all defaults, and just set the record to a zap, rather than a record. When adding a zap timer, the clock icon will show on the previous event. This is to do with the pre-start timer.

Fixes

SwapManager - Code cleanup, for better activation/detecion.
About Screen - Updated infomation screen, better layout, more information. VFD now shows image version.
EPG Search - Fix a bug where the yellow button just opened a blank EPGSearch screen instead of actually perfoming a search on the current event. Also, added 'Show History' to long yellow button press whilst in EPGSearch.
EPG Cache - Updated so now it does not require 2 reboots in order to use new location.
EventView - Fix GS on opening Similar List.
Network Link State - fixed Vu+ machine network link state.
PluginBrowser - fix it not installing picons.
ShoutCast - Fixed plugin.
SoftcamManager - Add Timercheck for OScam to support no username or password in Webif, fix GS when pressing coloured buttons, if no softcams installed, also code clean up.
Translation - Updated NL language files.
Permantent TimeShift fix and embed PTS.
Updated KeyMap - Fixes a few MoviePlayer remote control issues.
ViX HD skin - PNG fix for selected items in lists, Tweaked the Jobview screen, 'New Online Version' icon now flashes to remind you of an update.

From VIX Team


Enigma: 18-11-2011.

Because of a lot of changes behind the scenes of the image and building, you will not be able to perform an online update. A full flash is required for this version of ViX image. Due to many changes (a.o. renamed settings) it is strongly advised NOT to restore old settings. Of course channel-settings can be backed up using a setting editor and restored later. We strongly recommend that after installing channel settings from feeds or uploading your own that you re-scan all satellites used to avoid any future issues.

This revision of the image has undergone many different builds, hours and hours of coding/fixing, and we hope that you are now happy to reflash with the latest ViX image! :D

Team ViX Enchancements

New Features

Added items to the Information Screen - Added Devices and System Information to Menu -> Information. In Devices, you get all the information about connected devices on your box (HDD, USB and Network Shares), and System Information will show you your memory on your box (Swap, Free memory etc).
Added OSD Settings - This replaces the overscan option within the ViX image. Go to Menu -> Setup -> System -> OSD -> OSD Setup, and ensure the screen fills your TV set exactly to ensure that all menu options are shown correctly for your TV.
Added blindscan - Now, ET9000 and Vu+ Uno both have blindscan ability incorporated in to the image. And, best of all, a nice simple scan routine for it. You can choose to scan all horizontal and vertical polaritys, as well as high and low bands all in one pass. Save having to run the blind scan for each individually :thumsbup:.
Added support for HDMI-CEC - This image now allows you to control your box using your tv remote. Remember, this is still experimental at the moment, and can work differently between different brands of TV makes/models.
Added uShare - Allow the box to be detected by your DLNA devices that support this protocol. This can be configured under Menu -> Setup -> System -> Network -> uShare Setup.
Added AFP - The Apple Fileshare Protocol makes it easy for your OSX devices to find your box and use the box natively within the OS. This can be configured from Menu -> Setup -> System -> Network -> AFP Setup.
Added EPG Automatic Refresh/Save - These are useful for members who keep a single EPG datasource on a network share with multiple boxes. In Menu -> Setup -> System -> EPG -> Settings, you have the option to choose a network location (as long as configured within the NetworkBrowser). If you use this, you might want to update the EPG data from this location automatically. So now you can using the Automatic Refresh option on a client box, and Setup the Automatic Save option on a server box (the box that update the epg data.). Do not use these options both on same box.
Added Automounts option - This allows the box to automatically recreate network mounts. If you've had times where the NFS of CIFS server has been restarted, or lost power etc, then you'll know that your box cannot access this network share. Well, as long as you have configured the share through the Mount Manager, then you can configure the Automount to automatically remount the share as often as you like by going to Menu -> Setup -> System -> Network -> Devices -> MountManager.
Default Skin Change - The Default skin has been changed from ViX HD to ViX Day HD. Another ViX skin has been developed for download from the plugin server under the ViX section, called ViX Night HD. This is for those who want a darker skin for their image. Please report any skin issues you may find with the ViX Night HD skin. We think we have them all covered, but can't be too sure...
Many plugins translated/made translatable - Allows the plugins to display correctly the information in your own language (as defined on original setup).
Added seekbar functionality to the image - Allow you to seek within a recording playback to where you would like to be within the playback. To utilise this, please hold down the << or **** buttons on your remote, and the seekbar will appear at the top. Use the arrow keys on the remote to choose where you would like to seek to in the playback, and press OK to start playback from this point.
Added Image Download to Image Manager - This allows you to download the latest full image from the server, and flash it to your box. To access this, go to the Image Manager from with ViX menu, and press the help button. This will list all available images to download.
Lots more under the hood updates/enhancements - A few menu options and screens have become more integrated to their respective menus. For example, the Recording Paths menu is no longer required, as Timeshift Path is defined in Timeshift Setup, and Recording Path in Recording Setup.

Fixes

Corrected a number of plugins.
Updated network components, including better support for WiFi.
Updated translatability; updated German & Dutch translations.
Hidden several ViX-core functions from the plugin-browser.
Better handling of SWAP partitions by the Mount Manager.
Audio Button - The audio button now works as advertised.

To use this release, you will need to flash the bootloader before flashing the image

Because of kernel change, you will not be able to perform an online update. A full flash is required for this version of ViX image. But you can use Backup Manager to backup your setting, although any extra plugin will not be reinstalled by the wizard due to the kernel change.


New Features

Subtitle structure - Has been changed and now where subtitles are available you will be able to select subtles either via the subtitles Menu or via the Audio Menu then Yellow button
Where Subtitles are not available you will not be able to bring up the Subtitle Menu or see the Yellow button via the Audio Menu
This is not a bug but rather a change in the Subtitle structure

OpenWebIf - this now how has replaced the old WebIf, and as a result it uses the default port of 8088, if you want you can change it back to 80 in the plugin setup.
