    tune fail on certain channels

    Hi, I am encountering an unusual problem on my vu zero and on two tm nano-oe's that I am setting up for my mates. I'm getting a tune fail on sky sports1,3 and 5 and some other channels but if I do a rescan they come back. My solo2 is working perfectly but a guy I work with has a solo2 and his is doing the same thing. My zero is running build 147 as is my solo and both are set up the same. Any ideas?

    Hi People

    I am experiencing the same thing on my Technomate Nano Se, it all started after i did a over the net upgrade, then certain channels showed tune failed, then i rescanned and they came back, now after flicking some channels just come up with a black screen, even though they were working seconds earlier, then i need to unplug and restart the box and they come back.

    Is there an issue with the latest software ?????

    Any advice would be appreciated

    you can set your ABM to download at 4am and set it to download daily and keep it on simple mode. this will download automatically and keep everything updated

    NO - sky change the signal or FEC banding to different frequencies. ABM updates this, therefore we dont need to do outt. unless there is a issue with ABM, but my solo2 seems fine.

    so this sounds like a firmware problem rather than a hardware problem with so many people experiencing it including myself..........what was the latest stable version of vix before these problems anyone know? cheers

    There is an issue as my first post suggests, my solo 2 is working fine but my zero is showing tune fail as is my parents duo running an early apollo image and several of my mates using different boxes and different versions of a vix image.

    Are admin going to ignore this problem or deny it's existence?
