Black screen

[fredd74]

Just got My reciver from goldwafers.
I only get a black screen when i turn it on, tv displays No video signal.
I have got full HD TV, 1080p....Should this be A problem.
I have also tried the hmdi cable that came with the box.

What can I try?

Thanks!

have you tried reflashing the box which image was on it and which image did you try

[fredd74]

I havent done anything yet.
Just some cables connected, power, sat, hdmi and network.

When I power it up at the back, the white circle in front turn on (white). But then nothing happends. I can press remote and see that the withe circle turn on/off.
But nothing more happends.

The tv displays, no video steam is found. Can it be that it has already been setup up as 2160p and is locked in this mode?

Also when it is turn on, I browse my router, and it is not to be found. It has not cennected.

What can I try?

Thanks

[DCG]

did you purchace it pre imaged and if so which image

[fredd74]

No i did not buy it with pre installed image.

[DCG]

have you tried installing an image

[fredd74]

Yes, I have tried install a image, but nothing happends.
I will try and format the stick, fat32, and see I this is the problem.

[DCG]

have you tryed the image for the uno 4k
or just the image for the uno
which image have you down/loaded

[fredd74]

Ok, I have slowformated my usb stick with fat32.

I have copy in the BlackHole-3.0.3-vuuno4k_usb_release_20170220_5d48 f4d.

in \vuplus\uno4k (or should it be \vu+\uno4k)

The files are:
rootfs.tar.bz2
force.update
initrd_auto.bin
kernel_auto.bin
splash_auto.bin

Still nothing happends, I have tried the usb port on side and the back. When I have the stick in my computer it is flashing with a green light when at work, not when I have it in my uno4k.

Thanks for helping med out.

First Power up and Flashing:

Before I did anything else, I let the receiver boot up, to make sure it was all working ok. Once booted and I was happy, I then proceeded to shut down the Uno4K, pulled out my favourite usb stick, and loaded on the Black Hole 3.0.3 image for the Vu+ Uno4K J

If this is your first Vu+ receiver, you will be pleased to know, that installing an image onto any of the Vu+ receivers is a very simple process. Simply grab a usb stick, format it in fat32 with your pc, download the BlackHole image from black hole (other images are available from different teams) and extract the zip file contents to the root of your newly formatted usb stick. Once this is done, plug the usb stick into the usb 3.0 port at the side and then power the box on at the rear, the front panel led will start to flash in a slow (almost like it’s breathing) sequence, and when finished, it will flash a fast on and off sequence.

At this point you can remove the usb stick and power the box off and back on again.

It is a very quick and simple process and it doesn’t take long to reflash this box.

On first boot after flashing, you will be greeted with the setup wizard, just follow the simple onscreen instructions to setup your new Uno4K.

A new box must have the basic original image. If you press menu do u see something ?

[fredd74]

Hi.
Thanks for you help.

Doesnt work, I have tried with 2 different Usb stick, both formated with fat32.
I have tried with 2 different images.
I have tried with the stick at the back and side.
Nothing happends, no blue light. Only 4 white cirle lights up.

The files are in \vuplus\uno4k

I have tried with all cable plug in, network, hmdi, power and sat. And I have
tried with only the power cable.



So what more can I try?

Thanks

/Fredrik.

[fredd74]

No I see nothing, no video stream to be found displays on the tv.

[DCG]

whitc image did you try first the black hole for the uno

or the black hole for the uno 4k

[fredd74]

For Uno4k.

Weeks that my reciver is Broken?

[fredd74]

Autocorrect..... Seems that My reciver is Broken?

[DCG]

so you didn't try or down load the image for the uno none 4k
you only tried the image for the uno 4k
and didn't d/l the image for the old uno and try that

[fredd74]

No i just tried the One Micha uploaded for me, seems correct to med.

[DCG]

so you only d/l the 1 from micha
not the 1 for the old uno
just to be sure YOU DIDNT D/L the old uno file
just incase you corrupted your boot loader

[fredd74]

No, THE One Micha uploaded, this i have tried.

But before i tried to flach, it behaved THE same, 4 White circle lighting Up, nothing more.

[Mickha]

Try disconnecting anything you have attached, including the satellite co-ax cable, just have your HDMI cable, and USB device, connected, then follow Lee's guide:
https://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthread.php?175968-Dummies-guide-to-setting-up-Vu-Uno4K

If you still get nothing all I can suggest is that you try a different brand/size USB stick.
Can you try it on a different television?

[DCG]

as it shows you d/l both files
which one did you realy try

[fredd74]

I have tried a different tv, its THE same.
I bought A USB stick from goldwafers along with the box, this Should work i guess.
I have mail goldwafers.....So leta see what happends. It seems broke to me.

[DCG]

so you didn't d/l this file
https://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthread.php?175784-Black-Hole-3-0-3-E-Vu-Uno

and only d/l this file

https://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthread.php?175947-Blackhole-3-03G

yes / no

Try connecting the receiver to your router, using an ethernet cable, then download the Dreambox Control Centre:
https://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthread.php?155335-Latest-Version-of-DCC-E2-v1-50

Start up the DCC_E2.exe file, on your PC.
Once it opens press the Suchen icon, under Dreambox, then Suche, and see if it racognizes your VU+ Uno 4K, and supplies an IP address.

Also check some of the videos, on youtube:

[fredd74]

DCL,
When I bought the box I perhaps downloaded the file or UnO. But that was before I got the box and Micha uploaded the correct file for Uno4k. So the file for uno i deleted.

"BlackHole-3.0.3-vuuno4k_usb_release_20170220_5d48 f4d" IS the one I have tried!!!!

I have also tried "openatv-5.3-vuuno4k-20170303_usb", same result.

I will try Mickha suggestion with Dreambox Control Centre now

thanks

[fredd74]

Mickha:
Thanks for your suggestion.

No DCC doesnt seem to find anything, just the router, my spiderbox and my computer. No Uno4k. (have tried it with my spiderbox disconneted also)

And also when I log in to my router to see what's connected it isnt there.

Is it strange that is doesnt make a sound when I turn it on? Should there be a fan or anything?

Can it be so that it has been started up and is set at 2160p, that why I cant see anything.
But of course then, with all your explantion and help, it would still startup and install a image when started up with a usb stick with correctly install image.

Dont know what else I can do............................... ..

/Fredrik

[fredd74]

Well, one more thing

When the reciver is on, the remote controll works. When I press a buttom, any buttom, the 4 white circle turn on/off.
So it cant be all dead.

/Fredrik

[Mickha]

Have you got access to any other television, with a HDMI port, just to test it on?
The receiver doesn't need to be connected to a satellite dish, to install, and set up, your receiver.

[fredd74]

Yes, i have tried two different tv, both with full HP 1080p

Also tried now, formating with a program instead och Windows, didnt help.

[Mickha]

I think it might need to be returned, and be tested, to locate the problem.
