Tune failed etc

[hammertime]

This is doing my tits in. I randomly get tune failed message when changing channels, seems to be worse when recording and sometimes channels appear to be recording but when try to play it, nothing.

Also, any time a do a full reboot i need to restart Cccam. How do i get this to stick?

Im on cable tuners. Checked terrestrial channels and they are fine. Cabling and connectors fine also. Its either drivers or flaky tuners and having spent over 300 quid on this box id be disgusted if its the latter.

Does this box take blackhole image? Would like to see if i have better success with another image.

I have a Mut@nt n no issues here. Sicilian has a Mut@nt, also does Norm n also reports of no issues. It could be just a basic user error. You sure all the connectors/cabling are ok n full working order?
As for your cam settings, press blue, softcam manager, is your cam showing with a green tick?

Use CCcam 2.3.

Ensure you have direct feeds to each tuner from a decent splitter.

What tuner setup do you have? Sat? Hybrid? How many of each?

None of the above mentioned issues with my Mutant

Yeah using CCcam 2.3.0.

Here's the thing, this is mind boggling, if I have two feeds one directly into each tuner (2x Hybrid), I get tune failed etc. However, if I then add a loop through cable it's fine. What the hell?

I've tried three different splitters in combos with three different sets of cables.

So the tune failed issue seems fine when the loop through is used but over the last couple of days channels have been freezing for 5 minutes. Also if I reboot the receiver, the cam needs restarted every time, a major pain in the arse.

Is there any logs or anything I can get off the box to take a look at to see what the problem might be.

May I also add that zapping on my Vu+ Duo was 3-4x faster than this Mut@nt.

What tuners do u have to? Sat or hybrid? I'm assuming free to air are fine? Do u have you own local card?

2x Hybrid tuners. Same problem with free to air.

Sounds like u have a possible signal issue.

To test the tuners set both to DVB-t2, connect standard tv aerial and run manual scans on each tuner.

No way duo zaps faster than hd2400.

I find this connection odd.

Do you have the male adapters? From F-plug to Belling-Lee

That connection worked, no matter how odd it seems, which is what I find odd.

However the feeds are in the top inputs and the loopthrough on the bottom.

Yeah I do mate.

If you are using loop thru do exactly this.

1) connect main feed to TOP of Tuner A.
2) connect good quality loop cable from bottom of Tuner A to Top of Tuner B.
