Hi Everyone
First post here from a "down under" retiree aged 80evil: who is semi computer literate but is not confident about installing plug ins etc for his Vu+ Solo2 (genuine Korean).
My usage is basic - pointing to the fixed satellite Optus C1, all set up & tuned ok but I'm not taking advantage of the many many options available for this receiver and have experienced a few frustrations. :eater:
One of these frustrations has been control of subtitles, something an oldie like me needs because of failing hearing, but that has only just been solved and appropriate macros on the HTM remote now give me that option (the subtitle button on the supplied remote did not work:Angryfire).
So can anyone point me to a publication or series of posts which set out:
1. What each of the plug ins, add ons etc actually achieve (so I know if they would be useful for me)
2. A menu, clearly, step by step, of how to install them without crashing the Solo 2.
I'm not a nubie to A/V as I've been playing around with audio for 70 years (started with a wind up cylinder Edison - still have it), can follow simple circuits, can solder, and have graduated to HT video and have all music (interested mainly in classical) on 6 TB on a Meridian server. But I'm no programmer and have shied away from anything much past desktop publishing via MS Publisher, using Power Point and setting up the 5 Home Theater Master remotes here to control the various house systems. I can easily get out of my depth.:Mad2:
TIA
