Hi all!
I don't know any German, so came straight to the English section.
To the point:
I've been a Dreambox user for some years. Trying to test and switch to HD, I decided to replace my 7025 with the Vu+ Duo.
Got it in Tuesday, connected it and everything seemed ok. It came with image version 4.5.
After I upgraded to the latsest official image (4.9) I noticed a problem with the tuners.
After an automatic scan, 7025 and Vu+ Duo with 4.5 found around 1800-1900 services. With version 4.9, it found only 1000-1050 services.
Tried latest Dream-Elite and OpenPLi images with the same results.
Went back to official 4.5 and 4.6 and it was ok.
So, were the problem is...
in order for me to watch a channel, my tuner has to "lock" at a frequency 1-3MHz higher than the Transponder's frequency.
For example, when I watch ReteQuattro, checking the Service Information, "Transpoder" (yellow button) shows 11919V but "Tuner status" (blue button) shows 11920.
I don't really know if this is normal or there's something wrong with my setup (80cm dish with one quad LNB to Hotbirds) Generally I have good quality signal, around 80% AGC and SNR.
The point is that all my previous boxes and the vu+ up to version 4.6, made this frequency "shift" automatically. Something like "auto fine tuning".
From 4.7 and later, I have to do many manual transpoder scans with the "corrected" frequencies, in order to get all the services. And, of course, I have to consider satellites.xml useless.
I'm definitely not an expert but it seems like a bug (driver maybe?) to me. :rolleyes:
If not, is there something I can do?
Hope my English is not really bad...
Thanks in advance
Dimitris
