Anyone using GiGaBlue DVB-S/S2 Plug & Play Satellite tuner.
Im seeing some funny things with it in my QUAD.
Firstly after a few hours the tuner would fail to record any program that was on a vertical frequency, recording would be 00:00 and tuner failed appeared on TV.
Restarts etc would not solve it. Involved a power down to get tuner card working properly.
I swapped cables from other 2 tuners (that are fine on them) and the same issues happened again.

It worked all fine for 1-2 days but this evening again tuner C with the GiGaBlue DVB-S/S2 Plug & Play Satellite tuner failed on all channels (v or h).
powering down box did not sort it this time so I just disabled it so recordings could continue.

When I enabled it a while ago (nor reboot or restart) the tuner C worked perfectly on all channels.

Firstly is their many using this tuner card in the quad.
Secondly how are ye getting on with the tuner card.
I have DVB-t in the QUAD and its fine, so are the 2 built in tuners...On VIX 729
Will be talking to WOS tomorrow but just wondering how others are finding the tuner....
