Hi guys, I have a strange issue with my ultimo. Tuner B is producing a scrambled picture despite having a very high signal rate. I have opened up the box and swapped over tuner B and C, however, I am still getting the same scrambled picture with tuner B only. This leads me to believe it is not the tuner but something wrong with the box. Here is a video of the issue:

Anyone have any ideas?

Have you updated the FPGA?

Just use the FPGA-upgrade plugin.
Which image do you use?

I use ViX. Is that located in the plugins menu?

yes it should be named firmware update or something similar.

Basically the FPGA is a firmware update for the chip that control's your tuners.
