    Hi,
    only if two separate cables are connected to the box. If you only have one cable you have to put it into tuner B and A loop through to B.

    Because the hardware only support the internal loopthrough in that direction. But for a user this makes no difference at all.

    Then you have done a wonderful job and should apply for a well paid job at VU's......

    I can't.
    I can only say that VU+ themselves say this to be not possible. And in my solo2 it indeed isn't.

    very strange,in my solo2 working at pip mode,
    i think that there is choice to loopthrought tuner b to tuner a,if was impossible then there isnt such a choice.

    i turn on pip and i can see channels on same sat and same polarization and different provider,transpoder.
