Vu+ SE v1 problem - please help

[dino999]

Hello
I have had the Vu+ SE v1 for around 4 months and have a recurring problem which is very annoying . I have connected to the unit a 500 gb usb hardisk and the usb VU+ turbo tuner .
I use the VU+ SE to watch satellite channels with internal tuner, the Turbo to watch Digital terrestrial tv channels. I am using your latest image openvix 3.2.005 . When I open the unit everything works fine. I can watch any terrestrial channel and any sat channel without any problem , I can switch between them without any issue . Now if I watch a satellite channel for a average amount of time lets say 1 hour and try to switch to a terrestrial channel the unit gets stuck and needs a hard reboot by power switch . This never happens when switching from terrestrial channel to sat channel. I am not a complete novice but for the life of me have no idea how to fix this or how to report it correctly so someone can help me. I have tried to fix it by installing other images and my results are the following :
1. openvix image - everything works but sat tuner to terrestrial tuner switch needs hard reboot as described above
2. open blackhole image - everything works but sat tuner to terrestrial tuner switch needs hard reboot as described above
3. blackhole image - tuner is recognized but can not mount usb hardisk
4. VTI image - tuner is recognized but can not mount usb hardisk

Any help will be appreciated

Do you press your tv button on the Vu+ remote (bottom left) when you try to access your terrestrial channels when in satellite mode?

As someone who has experience of usb tuners it sounds like your tuner disconnects (falls asleep) when not being used for a period of time and needs the reboot to wake it back up (used to have this problem with dvbsky usb tuners) I am surprised that VU+ own usb tuner has this bug also and you should submit a bug report to them, I now only use Sundtek usb tuners and they don't 'fall asleep'.

Hi

No I don't press the tv button to access terrestrial channels .
I have both terrestrial and satellite channels in my favorites menu and can switch between them without any problem for a certain amount of time.
thanks
