Hi i got my miraclebox twin hd today. All set up and everything.
But cannot get ABM to scan. have checked the settings but comes up with message "Timeout for tuner lock".

Have tried disabling 2nd tuner to nothing connected and restarted box several times but no luck.
Is there nothing for cable yet? I'm from luton.

3.6.0 is not a Apollo image build number. Please go to the about screen and post the image version from there. Menu> Information> About.

Thanks, that should help others to be able to help you. Sadly though cable is not something I am familiar with as I have never lived in a cable area, so I can't offer help my self.

ABM is always using the last tuner installed (of the same type). Disabling is ignored by ABM.
Make sure all your tuners are connected. Do you have 2 dvb-c tuners?
Is your provider not in the provider list, then ABM cannot scan for your providers channels.
Who exactly is your cable provider?

Go to your favourites, switch to providers list and switch back to favourites.
The bouquests made by ABM should be there.

Or just press the TV button, does the same...
I don't think this is the issue though? User can't run ABM for some reason. More than likely a tuner config issue?

Looks like tuner issue is solved.

I have the same. After running ABM the first time (e.g. after fresh flash), bouquets are not displaying. Just do a kind of 'refresh' by going to 'providers' list and back.

Ah, didn't read that post on tuner issue being solved.
On any of my boxes, pressing the TV button is enough to refresh bouquets after a fresh flash & ABM run.
