[VU+ Duo2] Can't use tuners c and d

[Tkr001]

If I have recordings active on tuners a and b and try to view on tuner c I get tune failed. I have a duo2 with 2 twin tuner cards.

Using drivers I saved from a pre vix 805 build solves the problem.

Sat feeds to all tuners?

Please state your exact tuner setup. And your build number, as 'build 0' doesn't exist.

On HELIOS with 2X Twins and box is recognising all, what is your tuner set up?

 

[Tkr001]

Sorry finger problems. Build is Helios 001, which I entered. I did NOT enter 0. Box has 2 twin tuners with LNB feeds to tuners a and c. Tuner a is setup with b looped through to a, c looped through to b and d looped through to c. This setup has worked fine since I got the box (and I was one of the first) until build 805 which introduced new drivers and has not recognised the second tuner card since. Reverting to the old drivers fixes the problem. In an old thread Rob recreated the problem on a box that was "at the bottom of his stack".

If I've read it right, you have three loops, you should only have two.

B to A &
D to C

Cables in A & C.

 

[Tkr001]

Yeah I have cables in a and c but loop c to b. It works....just not on the new drivers.

 

[Rob van der Does]

Then 'c looped through to b' is not correct; you should setup tuner C according to the feed it gets.

 

[Tkr001]

Yep, of course you are all right. Set tuner c to equal a, saved settings, reflashed and restored settings and all good. Still confused as to why it worked on the old drivers and on the early drivers setting c to equal a didn't work. It was only after trying almost every combination I settled on looping everything through.

Anyway all is good now, thanks.

Nothing to do with drivers, but with by coincidence, depending on the tuner requirements of that moment.
