Ultimo with 3 Cable tuners, dont work!

[Trial]

Hi,
in Germany it was told that removing one is enough. But better call your dealer and ask him. It should be a known problem. I do not want to be responsible if you lose waranty.

Hi,
look at the tuner. When all tuner have a big additional capacitor on the back there are problems with Ultimo. In Germany the dealer gave permission to remove the capacitor. Ask your dealer about that. The capacitor should not be needed in the Ultimo.

Did you have the exact same problem as I did?

Another thing I found was that when one of my TV sets is powered on AFTER I started my Ultimo my tuner 3 was missing. If the TV set was powered on before the Ultimo everything was OK.

Do you still have this problem? does that mean every time you start a timer and the TV is not on the third tuner dont work?

Anyone else have problems like this with 3 tuners ???

Yes, there are several Ultimo's experiencing different problems with tuner 3. I just returned my 2 Ultimo's with non-funcional 3rd tuner-slots as RMA.

Hi Rob,
your problem is completely different.

The problem with 3 DVB-C with additional capacitor is know in Germany and several user reported that all 3 worked after they removed a capacitor from one tuner. But as I said PLEASE ask your dealer it must be know. I did not had the problem because I had special tuner without the capacitor and all were working at the same time.

The problem with the 3rd tuner and TV still exists BUT only with one certain TV (not with my Samsungs) and only on HDMI1 there. If I use HDMI2 on that TV it also works. In the meantime I only heard from one other Guy with an old Gericom TV that he has the same problem.

Correct. As I said 'there are several Ultimo's experiencing different problems with tuner 3'.
