    You can use an FBC tuner with a normal/universal LNB

    You can use a normal tuner with Unicable


    All FBC modules (cards) have two physical connections. They are however internally linked

    There are two types of pluggable FBC satellite modules, one is S2X on is just S2. The same slot accepts the MTSIF Terrestrial tuner.


    The Ultimo4k has three connections for tuner modules.

    Two x FBC modules. ( DVB-S2X, DVB-S2 or DVB-C). Or the MTSIF Terrestrial tuner.

    One x standard tuner module.


    The Vu standard tuner modules/cards come in a variety of options

    Single sat input (also has loop out)

    Twin sat input

    Twin hybrid



    I am not sure about the tuner sensitivities, so I cannot give suitable information for you to decide. Maybe an idea to ask Huevos

    So you are not doing what I suggested but said you are doing so.


    An option for you until you get the combiner. Start afresh remove all bouquets and lamedb and the other plugin.


    Hardware

    Connect provider 1 signal wire to Dreambox.

    Connect provider 2 signal wire to ALL Zgemma tuners using splitter


    So, each box only has physical access to signal from one DVB-C provider. You won't get Tune failed messages.


    Bouquets on box for hooked up signal

    Create bouquet for provider 1 on DM. Use distinct name

    Create bouquets for provider 2 On Zgemma. Use distinct name


    Bouquets for remote bouquets. Ie what box does not physically have

    Install RCSC on both boxes

    On Zgemma, import bouquets from DM

    On DM, import bouquets from Zgemma if you will be physically watching from this box. If you will not be watching from HDMI of this box, leave it to one sid


    Result on Zgemma should be:

    Select DVB-C provider 2 -> Will use the tuners on Zgemma box

    Select DVB_C Provider 1-> Will stream from DM. View using Zgemma


    Any other receiver in house

    Install RCSC

    Import Provider 1 from DM

    Import Provider 2 from Zgemma


    What doesn't work:

    Remote channel stream converter cannot run channel from Tuner B ( remember that I set Tuner C as Preferred tuner DVB-C. See 4.a and 4.b).



    How are you using RCSC? It is for importing channels from another receiver. Maybe you are not doing things the best way.


    You were meant to use one receiver with Provider A signal wire. Another receiver with provider B signal wire. Each receiver works fine on its own provider using the physical tuners. When you import Bouquets from other receiver (do on both), you will use tuner on the correct signal wire for the provider.

    I stand somewhat corrected, there is a plugin called slowzap which allows you to assign tuner priority to individual channels. Please remember, it is priority, not exclusivity.

    Using two tuners will be possible but will need two splits then two combiners because the box has two physical signal inputs.


    Just for information:

    You can combine Terrestrial and cable on the hot-switchable tuners if you can get the correct combiners.

    As an example, if you had two dishes pointing to 19.2, one of which did not get vertical transmission and another that did not get horizontal ones. You connect both these to two tuners and configure as 19.2. Enigma2 knows both have 19.2 and will assume both are identical.


    This is how E2 treats it. It is a big task to change everything. So I would not expect any fixes.


    I just re-read the thread and you mentioned both providers operate on different frequencies with no overlap. Can you try combining the cables, use a splitter in reverse, and connect to one tuner. Disable the other tuner for time being. This should work as the tuner will have access to all frequencies.
