[VU+ Solo2] USB sundtek cable tuner scanning problems

[DaMacFunkin]

Yes, manual complete network scan is the way to do it with this stick..
Make sure in tuner settings after you set your network id, to set used service scan to provider and set provider to Virgin Media UK 6952.

Must be a USB tuner issue, I've installed the latest sundtek control center/drivers from the official sundtek website as the one in the feeds are outdated but still the same issue....manual scan works fine so I'm happy with that [emoji106]

The auto scan is 50% our driver issue, the other 50% have to be modified in Enigma2, it's on our list to fix this up and also provide updates for E2 to support this with our tuners.
Our new hardware (from 2014) supports blindscan, but we have to return the values in a way E2 can handle it.

Which image (name and build number) are you using?

Im using vix helios 010, i tryed my channel list from my dm cable and it just crashes if i go a channel

You will need a more recent image. Check change logs to see exactly when that provider was added.

hi - I have recently purchased the same sundtek tuner, I managed to scan 550+ channels but I am getting 0% SNR for all channels so are not clearing

I have searched on that net and seen that others have had this problem but I was not able to find a definitive answer.

 

[hsbajwa316]

anyone able to help here, snr is fluctuating between 0.. 20.. 60.. 70 but it never gives a picture

 

[abu baniaz]

What are you scanning? What settings are you using? Have you installed the Sundtek control centre?

 

[hsbajwa316]

I have scanned all the channels fine using the below settings, 550+ channels and I have Sundtek installed through plugins

Tuner type DVB-C
Confuration mode enabled
Network ID 40974
Used service scan type Provider
Provider to scan Virgin Media UK (6952)

Howeever issue is when I try and watch it says Tune failed I guess due to the SNR.

 

[abu baniaz]

Have you tried AutoBouquetsMaker?

 

[hsbajwa316]

Thanks Abu, ran it and now managed to pull in most of the SD freeview channels, but cant get the HD ones. Any suggestions?

 

[abu baniaz]

There are no FTA HD channels on cable in the UK.

 

[hsbajwa316]

ok great, thank you

The sundtek snr reports 0% on my duo2 and solo2 it is normal behaviour at the moment, like Abu said no fta HD channels on cable
