What image are you on because this could well be only applicable to the Blackhole image.

all I get is firmware upgrade FPGA press green button (which I do )this gives me a list of storage devices (bin autofs etc and hdd are some these are directories if I select HDD then I get parent directory Backup .ds_stor and ._.ds_store

I think I now need to know where the file should be (what directory ) so I can select it and press blue to download it

if I select parent directory enigma2settingsbackup.tar.gz and press the blue button we get firmware does not exist

Hi only get FPGA not VFD controller

I asked earlier if you did a online update and your never answered.

Do that by Pressing Menu-Addons-Online Blackhole image update.

Do that then reboot and try the plugin firmware upgrade again.

Only thing I can think of is your image is 2.0.4 and that does not have all the upgrade features.

Don't know this is fact I don't remember what it did have.
