you are right: 2 GB vs 4 GB

 

[bellejt]

somewhere there is a comparison and the new has a lot less chips power

 

[surv55]

now available in Germany - when will World of Sat be getting stock?

Quad4kPro also has 2GB now (it was reduced with the Rev2 model).

Don,t rush ……. Seeing teething issues on my box - spent all day trying to sort/ fix but there are issues.
Need some answers

..but early days so no panic, just saying wait to get any issues resolved.

Okay. I saw the thread on the OATV forum. There are a lot of bugs, and the drivers need fixing.

I rushed! I have received my duo4klite with two dual DVB-T tuners internally. It works well on openATV beta image, but it doesn't work with my external usb DVB-T tuners (Haupauge and AVerTV). These are old usb tuners but still work well on the Duo2 and on the Duo4KSE. So I'm hoping these introductory problems will be sorted...

Does the Duo4KSE support usb tuners? In terminal or telnet, run:
find /dev/misc -maxdepth 1 -name 'vtuner[0-9]*' | wc -l
The number that is returned should be the number of allowed usb tuners.

Not the se, it is the lite.

The lite shows as 8.

But the vu+ turbose usb tuner doesn't work on it and there are no drivers for the normal vu+ turbo usb tuner.

 

[bellejt]

drivers are in feeds and here the vu+ turbo works fine on the duo4K SE so probably the drivers will also work for the lite.First install drivers and then insert USB tuner.
Should normally recognize the tuner after reboot but there are several different versions of the turbo tuner external

We are talking about duo4klite not se, there are no drivers in the feeds for the vu+ turbo or vu+ turbo2 usb tuners for the lite, these are closed source and come from vu+.

The drivers for the vu+ turbose are from a generic usb tuner which is why they are in the feeds, but as said, the tuner doesn't work on this box even with the drivers installed.

then maybe try telnet :

opkg update
opkg install enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo

then maybe try telnet :

opkg update
opkg install enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo

Oh ok, why didn't I think of doing that ?


root@vuduo4klite:~# opkg install enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo
Couldn't find anything to satisfy 'enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo'.
error: opkg_solver_install: No candidates to install enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo (null)!

 

[bellejt]

but why external extra tuners if you already have 16 demodulators FBC internal tuner (twin) ?

This box will only take 2 internal fbc tuners, so you can have 2x sat, or 2x cable or 2x terrestrial, or any combination of 1 of each.

But you can't have all 3 types covered without usb tuner support.

On Ultimo4K in the past, I have had Sat and Cable fbc tuner, then twin terrestrial and also usb terrestrial tuners connected.
