View Full Version : [VU+ Ultimo4K] Missing HD channels after openvix 5.1.013

I did a manual scan tonight on 28.2E (Network NO, Clear before scan YES, Only FTA YES) and found a lot of missing HD channels. Many of the main ones BBC One HD, ITV HD etc. It did find 4HD and 5 HD. It is a tad windy, so tried 3 times in all.
Looked at the signal finder and when I moved forward/backwards, it missed the transponders with the missing HD channels on. I checked they were included in the satellite.xml file OK.
So, wondering if my previous backup (openvix 5.1.014) would work, I restored that image and the Ultimo4K again missed some of the HD channels. Sat finder also skipped the missing HD channel transponders.
Went back to openvix-vuultimo4k-release-5.1.013 and box found all the HD channels during the manual scan and signal finder found all the HD transponders.
To check if maybe I had a bad update previously, I proceeded to update from the working 5.1.013 to 5.1.016. Nope, the HD channels were not found in the manual scan and HD transponders got skipped on the signal finder.
So can only conclude this is an issue with either openvix after 5.1.013 or drivers of the VU Ultimo4k.
Can somebody take a look to see if this can be replicated and find out why this is happening?
If you need any further info, I'm happy to help.
Did it find the channels with Network = Yes? If so, then I would guess the transponders are changed from the satellites.xml, try using the old satellites.xml where the transponders were found and see if that fixes it on the new image.

No, they have not changed from the satellite.xml, I checked that on KingOfSat. On 5.1.013 the channels are found and remain in the bouquet when I do a scan. I always use the same satellite.xml, I only have the 28.2E channels. I always upload the last saved bouquet (minus the settings file) using dreamboxedit to over write the satellite.xml which has all satellites on.
It is definitely something wrong in version 5.1.014 and 5.1.016.
One that doesn't show up in a manual scan or signal finder is Astra 2E 10847.00 V DVB-S2 8PSK 23000 2/3 which has BBC1 HD and BBC 2 HD. Yet it is clearly in the satellite.xml. Shows up fine on 5.1.013, but not on subsequent updates.
Another that didn't show up was Astra 2G 11097.00 V DVB-S2 8PSK 23000 3/4 with ITV HD Meridian South. Again, fine in 5.1.013 but not on versions after that.
I'll upload my channel list/bouquet that I use.
I have same problem in Uno 4K. All S2-transponders are missing, every satellite.
Only octagon SF4008 is fine. Zero4K and Uno4K images are broken.

Well done and thank you. It is the S2 transponders it is not seeing.
Can you select the transponder with a "User defined transponder" scan like this?

Updated Vu+ drivers? They have had several updates recently including one 6 days ago (in 014) that was to fix a demux issue and 3 days ago in 017(which I guess maybe up shortly).
Worth trying 17 or later to see if there is a change( although that was a 4K HLG/HDR issue)
In the meantime, as it appears to be a Vu+ issue, perhaps Vu+ will try again :)
Updated Vu+ drivers?No, I don't believe that. Just flashed old Vu Zero with 5.1.016 and it's broken too. Drivers are 2017-11-07

Sorry but drivers in 016 are 2018/02/16
Can you post a copy of the „about“ page

That's tomorrow :confused:
Absolutely correct, one of those moments:) .... should be 2018/02/12
Hi
Miraclebox Premium mini plus here.
Updated to 5.1.016 tonight (before reading all the comments) many transponders missing on 3 satellites (19°, Hot Bird, Astra 28°), reverted back to 5.1.013

Think you need to look at your setup whats causing your issue, its not OpenViX. I use multiple satellites on both developer and release images with no missing transponders that I can see. How are your bouquets made up?
Sorry but drivers in 016 are 2018/02/16New drivers are only for 4K ARM
Vu Zero is MIPS
New Zero flash 5.1.016 without restore. Not working here

In post #4, you are only taking arm boxes including Zero 4K, so do you have an older Zero as well??
You specify Uno 4K, SF4008 and Zero 4K or Zero??
I did a manual scan tonight on 28.2E (Network NO, Clear before scan YES, Only FTA YES)
Leave Network Scan set as YES (default) and it will pick up all the HD channels.

Hi, thanks for that. AFAIK this is the first time I have noticed as many transformers missing after updating software. What do mean "How are your bouquets made up?" do you need to look at my bouquets list?

Yes, I have SF4008, Uno4K, Zero4K, Zero and many others. I tested old Zero, because you blamed new drivers.
Currently only SF4008 5.1.016 works(don't know why). Not a big problem, I'll just use 5.1.013 on others.

As we were talking at the time of only 4K boxes, and Vu+ had changed drivers in that build, I said it would appear that.....
With Vu+‘s track record on support it was not unlikely that this change may have caused an error.

I'll give it a try later when the Mrs has finished watching. I always assumed that a Network scan would scan for the supplied network channels like Freesat or Sky. I only have the FTA Freesat channels plus any extra channels (including UHD test channels) like CNN HD etc. I'll try later.
I remember many many years ago (Not with Openvix, I had a CubeRevo then) it was common to manually replace the drivers when the manufacturer updated them. Not sure what the VU driver files are in Openvix. Had a look in the VU latest usb download but not sure where they hide them.... Happy to give it a go while waiting for 017 if anybody knows.

OK, Network scan worked. Found all channels, Thanks ronand :)

I have reinserted 5.1.016 Results: (Hot Bird, Astra 19° and Sky 28°) Total channels found 3800+, ran ABM found that Hot Bird had a total of 35 transponders in Setup>Tuner config>signal fnder (many channels showing N/A) plus 28° had a few channels N/A (have to manually search each transponders at a time to get back the missing channels)
After reverting to 5.1.13 (4350+ channels found, After ABM was ran, Hot Bird was showing 95 transponders and only a few channels were showing N/A over the 3 satellites

Still not working correctly in Openvix 5.1.018 with drivers dated 12/02/2018
So Yesterday, Vu+ have released new, new, new drivers for 4K perhaps that will fix your issue when they reach the next image.
Still not working correctly in Openvix 5.1.018 with drivers dated 12/02/2018
And not working correctly here:
After updating to Openvix 5.1.018 same problem as 5.1.016 Numerous channels have to be rescanned individually.
(3 satellites, Hot Bird 45 transponders, Astra 19° 44 transponders and Sky 28° 50 transponders (predefined) found and 3821 channels in total.
After reverting to Openvix 5.1.013 and rescanning it found 4367 channels and transponders found Hot Bird = 95, Astra19° = 107, Sky 28° = 79. Only a few channels have to be rescanned. Thanks to echannelizer that this not too much of a bother
Status 5.1.018 here
SF4008 OK
Zero4K OK (no idea why problem no longer exists)
Uno4K Broken!
Zero Broken!
In debuglog (Zero) there are lines:
Unhandled Exception..
Satfinder/plugin.py 762, NoneType object has no attribute getFrontendStatus
Satfinder/plugin.py 793, SatFinder object has no attribute currentProcess.
Not sure if related, but this is bug in python code

Is the problem scanning or tuning?
Leaving ABM to one side, are you using the same xml file for scanning?
Is the problem scanning or tuning?
Channels work if they are already scanned, but all s2-transponders are missing in satfinder.
Here is link to (satfinder Zero) screencap Astra 19.2E, you can see all S2-transponders are not in list.
First line should be 10714H 22000 2/3

Strange. First two entries in xml for 19.2 not being shown in signal finder on solo 4k.

Looks like it is a driver issue. Technomate receiver shows it.

Just to test, I loaded the latest official USB software from VU dated 23/2/2018 and that doesn't find S2 channels either, so this is definitely a VU driver issue. I've sent them a bug report, but won't hold my breath.
Maybe if they get enough reports, they might do something about fixing this issue.

Updated 019, UNO4K seems working now

I also can't get Sky HD channels. Everything else works fine. On .18 build Uno 4k SE. Where did you get build 19 can only find 18.

Miraclebox box, all channels and transponders appears to be working here OK. Thanks to all concerned!

If you're talking about Sky Sports HD on VM cable, then that's unrelated.
Build 19 is available from an opkg upgrade or the software update in the menu.
