fbc tuners and unicable are two different things.
From what I understand:
An FBC tuner with a unicable LNB, same as having 4 tuners on same sat
An FBC tuner with a standard LNB, same as having 1 tuner with loopouts for that quadrant (high/low/h/v)
VU+ Ultimo 4K 3TB, 1x Twin DVBS-2 FBC / 1x DVB-C FBC/ 1x Twin DVB-T2.
VU+ Solo4k 2TB, 2xFBC-S2, 2xC/T2, 1x Sundtek .
1m Motorised Single LNB Dish, 60cm Fixed Octo LNB Dish.
Samsung 65HU8500 with SEK-3500, Denon AVR-X2200W 5.1.2.
Oppo UDP-203
Panasonic 55VT50.

Amazon Fire TV 4k & Amazon Fire TV (SPMC sideloaded).
unicable support is done by firmware.
and vix images support unicable.
i'm using unicable on a duo2 with 4 scrs.

Must admit this issue is confusing me too.
I have a Solo 4K with the the following LNB config which to be honest was just copied from my Mutant.
Tuners I and J is the twin cable tuner which obviously needs no explanation.
This all works fine.
Tuner A
Single universal LNB for 28.2e
Tuner B
4 port DiSEqC switch
All LNBs are quad universals as I have other setup in my office which for the sake of simplicity can be ignored to avoid more confusion.
Port A universal @ 28.2e
Port B universal @ 13e
Port C motorised dish with universal through vbox
Port D universal @ 19.2e
If you look at the screenshots you will see that tuners C to H are not configured which is I believe is correct with the current LNB setup.
Can anyone explain a better setup either with the existing LNBs or different ones ?
I am by no means certain but my understanding so far is that tuner B with the DiSEqC is probably best left as it is ?
Tuner A would be better with a FBC LNB (if there is such a an LNB) or a unicable LNB ? therefore the currently inactive tuners will become active ?
If the unicable LNB is best for tuner A then I have seen that 'GT-SAT Uni-a cable Unicable One LNB, LNC GT-S3SCR4' is available which has I unicable port which I would use for tuner A on the Solo 4K and 3 legacy(universal) ports for my other requirements.
Confused yet ?

afaik, this is the best you can do with the lnbs you got. however, you "waste" 6 internal fbc tuners.
the max you can get with a unicable lnb is 4 scrs (virtual tuners).
so a better solution would be a unicable switch for 8 scrs.
p.s. there are no "fbc lnbs".

Thanks 2stein
So will there never FBC LNBs or just not yet ? I did think that the new Sky UK Q receivers that have FBC tuners would use matching LNB although I could be wrong on this too
So are you suggesting a unicable LNB would be better on my 4K port A ? if so how does the unicable switch fit in with this ?
A question I forgot to ask is
Can a unicable LNB be configured to be used as a standard universal LNB ?
Thanks for your time.
that i don't know.
yes, with a unicable-lnb you could use 4 "internal tuners" instead of just one.So are you suggesting a unicable LNB would be better on my 4K port A ? if so how does the unicable switch fit in with this ?
for a switch solution you would connect your quad-lnb (quattro would do as well) to a unicable-switch that would then provide the unicable feed (for 8 virtual tuners) and universal feeds.
no... you can just use one (of the 4) scrs.. which gives you similar function as a universal lnb, but you still have to configure it as unicable-lnb.A question I forgot to ask is
