Vu+ Turbo Problem

[micscave]

So I've had the Turbo cable tuner working in my Ultimo for about 4 weeks now with no problems.
Then yesterday it stopped showing up in the tuner configuration menu, this is after updating to openvix-4.1.016. I don't think this is anything to do with it however, just a coincidence.

I've uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled which has made no difference.

I've reflashed the box with no backup to an earlier build and tried to reinstall the Turbo but it's still not showing up.

The strange thing is I can get it to show up on my Vu+ Solo 2. I've not tried it to see if it works as its only used upstairs as a client box running RCSC & I haven't got a cable feed up there.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be wrong?

If there has been no change in support for the turbo it can only be a usb problem, maybe the connection is worn either on the port or the cable.

Thanks for the reply.
I've tried all 3 USB ports, makes no difference. Also tried a terrestrial USB tuner in the ports and it runs fine.

Strange problem!

Bit of an update on this.

I flashed openvix-3.2.037 & installed the drivers, reboot and the tuner appears.

Then I flashed openvix-4.1.001 & installed the drivers, reboot and the tuner doesn't show up.

These were all fresh USB flashes with no settings back up.

I've changed my mind regarding it having nothing to do with the update to openvix-4.1.016, I now believe it has. I've tried a few of the 4.1 builds and the tuner won't appear on any.
When you install the driver now on the 4.1 builds it's as if it doesn't install properly, the sequence looks different to when installed on 3.2.037.

Could the VIX team have a look into this issue please?

Regards

I've just noticed the driver from openvix-3.2.037 is dvb-USB-turbo (1.0-r2).

From openvix-4.1.016 it's dvb-usb-turbo (1.0-r3). Is this the problem& can I get the earlier driver from somewhere?

I am using the latest driver and upto date on Vix builds and I have no issues with the tuner.

Hi duoduo

This is driving me mad now.

I can get it working on my Solo2 with latest drivers and openvix build but not on my Ultimo.

All was well until I upgraded to openvix-4.1.016. I can only assume the drive changed from 1.0-r2 to 1.0-r3 with this build or something has gone wrong with the Ultimo driver.

[micscave]

Is it possible to revert to the older driver for the Ultimo as this one doesn't work?

[rossi2000]

this looks to be kernel specific i think. ultimo uses a different kernel to solo2, duo2, solo4k etc.
there was a recent change to the drivers recipes.

can you go in telnet and type

opkg remove enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo

when its done

type:-
opkg install enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo

please paste the output in here

Do my posted results point to anything?

[rossi2000]

yes give us some time, there are multiple things going on at the moment.

[gedclarke]

Same thing happening here (on vu+ duo), if you need anything uploaded let me know, cheers.

[lomme]

I had the same problem after upgrading to 4.1.016. Tried to remove the -r3 driver and adding it again, no luck.
Good to see im not the only one, no need to panic just yet.
