Is anyone familiar with the Vu+ SOLO SE V2 with Twin Cable tuner?
It has 2 Tuners Apparently.
One is the cable in, the other is the loop.
Can I split the cable and plug them into both inputs?
It shows 2 tuners in the Set Up.
Advice greatly appreciated.
World of Satellite state it is a DVB_C Twin Tuner, But I'm not convinced that it is.
It has 2 ports but one says RF In and the other says RF Out.
How is that a twin tuner?

Thanks
In Advance.

The receiver and tuner module are two different items. Your question is in relation to the tuner module and not receiver.

There is a splitter inside the tuner module, you only need one signal input wire. Connecting an signal input wire into the loop out/rf out port will not achieve anything, it is designed for daisy chaining the signal wire to other devices.

I can confirm when you have a twin cable tuner in a solo se V2, you will have 2 cable tuners.
As Abu says you only need 1 feed to the input connector (top one. female type).
The output (male type) you can use for another receiver or an extra usb dvb-c tuner (then you will have 3 cable tuners).

Quick question guys sorry to hijack but i have a similar question is the Solo se V2 a entry level solo2? Meaning can i watch one programme and record another via a USB?

I mean if i have two sly cables can i put them both in the teo slots and watch one programme and record another or even do Pip?

it does not have space for an internal HDD, you will have to use an external one.

If you have a twin sat tuner module, you can do what you asked.

the tuners are not soldered onto the motherboard. you pick what tuner you want module you want. you can have a single satellite, twin satellite, single hybrid ( dvbt or dvbc), twin hybrid.

IMO, the et8000 is a better option.
