VU+ Duo 2 DVB C/T Tuner Virgin Media help.

Quote from rslynn46

Hi guys,

Am I understanding this correctly? Vir**n media can clear on a vu+duo?

No only boxes that have a cable tuner installed or you can use a Sundtek USB Cable tuner

Yes but there are settings that need to be in place and that is the bit I am yet to understand. Also the VU+Duo should have DVB-C tuner, some have double tuner DVB -S and DVB-C which makes them able to work both on Sly and Vir**in media.

Hi m8, I can confirm it is the same procedure you suggested on Tivo box, I followed it and got 19 pages of info, including netid and frequency..

I think its still the same procedure with tivo boxes to access the engineer menu but not 100% on that..the only virmin tivo box i have encountered was one that i dismantled to make use of the 1tb hdd for a friend... naughty boy that i am:)

hi m8 question I must ask if you have vermin tivo box running normally, and you put a splitter in for Uno box
will vermin not pick it up doing a line check ??

what format does the cable share use I am running oscam and don't want to change will I be able to add the cable line to oscam?

Which official virmin box do you have there? Get into the engineer menu and check what your netid and frequency is..usually holding up and down arrows(on box)NOT REMOTE! while powering the box up will take you there..then use the left and right arrows (front panel) to navigate and find this info for your area.

Ftp the file i have attached to share/tuxbox on your duo2 and reboot your receiver// when the receiver has booted back up and if you are not presented with the screen to add netid and frequency info then ftp the file to var/etc

Reboot and try again.

Same problem here in Slovenia at "TELEMACH" DVB-C provider. I get 0 channles when scanning.
Would this old "cable.xml" in .zip from year 2007 help me also ? How Exactly do I put in at Vu+ ?
Where do I get newest "cable.xml" (for Telemach/Slovenia if possible:) ?

Will I be even able to watch scrambled TV chanells also ? What I need to do to receive it ?

I am still at original firmware. Will flash to BlackHole when program scanning is done and working
on original firmware.

I have the same problem with Slovenian TELEMACH provider. DVB-C tuner didn't find any channels. Did you already solve the problem?

Thanks for help. Br, m

Vu+ Duo 2 and got a DVB C/T tuner

so that has cable nice never nnew that i was going to buy DVS S2 TWIN

WHY DOES TWIN DVB 2 DO

So with a dvb-c tuner installed in a vu+ duo2 and set up as described in previous posts(with pics) does this just open VM FTA or more i.e.. HD and movies /sports etc?
Just trying to establish if its worth adding the dvb-c tuner and running extra cable feed!

many thanks

Anyone able to answer my question above please?

i imagine if you have teh right frequencies/setup you should be able to recieve FTA channels..
to open any ppv you need a sub card or a friend with one after installing the relevant emulator protocol

just a quickie really....im thinking of getting a vu+ duo2 with 1 x sat and 1 x cable tuner.

I take it you can set both up on the same image and just switch between sat and cable without rebooting?

Been through this thread, and it sounds like I've got whats needed.
I've got a Vu+ Solo 4k with twin DVB-C/T/T2 tuner card. I'll connect the feed into the tuner port, via an f - TV cable.
I've got an active card in a V+ hd box (spare in the back room). So transfer the card into the Solo 4k card slot 1.
Is there a particular softcam that needs installing, or will oscam do the job? Or do I need a proper CAM in the CI slot (last time I looked I think it was Dragon)?

Cheers for any help

I have the USB Tuner working on OpenPLI and can confirm that it works, you might need to compile some things yourself but it does work.

Hi All,
I'm new to this forum and was wondering if someone could help me. I currently have VM broadband and have hooked up a VUSOLO SE+ box with cable and all in all it seems to work well. However whenever I use WIFI around the tv (i.e when wifi connects to phone/laptop) the SNR on the box fluctuates aggressively which causes a lot of scrambling. Has anyone experienced this before? is this down to the signal strength? I have one output from the wall and then a splitter which splits the signal to feed my router and tv.

any help would be much appreciated.

thanks

I have one output from the wall and then a splitter which splits the signal to feed my router and tv.

I have the same setup, and must admit i have never had those issues.

if your router transmits 5ghz, then try and connect to that, as its a lot less busy on that frequency, as so much is on the 2.4ghz, most frequency on household stuff is on 2.4ghz, so try to get away from it. you should get a better/stronger signal on the 5ghz as well. not going to go into the tech reason, but advise you try it.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for you response! I tried this last night and still no luck. I found that when there is anything "uploading" that's when the scrambling gets aggressive. Do you think there could a an issue with the box maybe? as when I re-connect my virgin I have no issues whatsoever...
