So, I've literally just opened the box on my Vu+ Duo, having read this forum for a week or two and I'm rather excited!
I just need a little help getting the basics set up. For now, I want to stick with the original software on the box - next week I'll try something like VIX or Pli.
Unfortunately, I'm lost in a wilderness of ignorance and several of these questions will be basic - hopefully that means they are easy to answer.
The house I've moved into has a dish, which I've inherited (one LNB), and a cable which is now plugged into the back of my Vu+ Duo (LNB 1 position).
I would like to watch the FreeSat channels
First Basic Question: I don't know which satellite the dish may be pointed at, but it looks the same as the neighbours which is pointed at sky.
No. 2 Should I have tuner A set to 'loopthrough to Tuner B' or vice versa?
What should the tuner that is not set to loopthrough be set to?
Currently I have A set to loopthrough to B, and B set to advanced ; Astra 28.2, LNB1 comes up underneath when I set to that satellite (and nothing for any other sats).
I did a channel scan and it took a while, but found about 1000 services.
But when I go EXIT all the way back, I just have a black screen with a Vu+ logo and 'loading enigma2...' in the corner.
If I try and select any channel from the list it says 'Service unavailable. Check tuner configuration'
Hopefully that's enough details for you guys to help me! cheers
