    0 channels found on both tuners set to DVB-T2 and using predefined config. Now running a complete scan and 0 channels so far.

    When this is done, will try again using another aerial cable just incase.

    It doesn't matter if CCcam is on or off for terrestrial does it?

    My last post above I meant run autobouquetsmaker maker scan on cable now that you've connected correctly, but make sure you set both tuners back to DVB-c.

    Ok will try that. Incidentally, no channels found on t2 from either tuner (possible I didn't set something right), I'm in postcode KY1 which is Black Hill so set it to scan this and nothing. I then took the aerial cable out the box and into the aerial input on telly with built in freeview and ran a scan which picked up all channels.

    Will try setting it all back to cable and rescanning ABM.

    I can't post screenshots of correct settings until tomorrow.

    Do the ABM scan as advised. The scan will automatically use Tuner B provided you've set both tuners to DVB-c. Then once you go back to viewing tv it will default back to A if you're not recording.

    "Timeout for tuner lock" on ABM scan.

    After changing tuner config and cabling I rebooted box, had to then go in and restart CCcam as always, then picture from channel appeared. Went ahead with ABM scan and got the above message, channels still appear working for now. Will report if there's freezing if it happens.

    Ok, connect the main feed to top of Tuner B and run the ABM scan again.

    If zero again, connect main feed back to top of Tuner A, set tuner B to DVB-t2 so the ABM DVB-c scan is forced to TUNER A. Post result.

    This thread is getting extremely confusing to read.
    When you follow Abus & Sicilians advice & fix the feeds to your tuners properly, can you post a pic of your tuners with cables plugged in so we know it's been done right.
    Active feed to tuner A input, loopthrough cable from tuner A output to tuner B input.
    Then also post a screenshot of your tuner config settings & your ABM settings after an E2 restart.
    You could also be damaging your tuners or motherboard by sending powered signals to the wrong inputs, so most important to fix that first & derermine you haven't caused any damage.

    Feeds to tuners, ABM, tuner a, tuner b.

    I think the freezing issue might have been down to the screw on connectors. i changed these 3 times and got the same problem then since the 4th change the freezing hasnt occured as yet.

    Still have the issue of having to start cccam upon full reboot and slow zapping.

    I do appreciate the assistance despite me not reading posts correctly.

    Have you enabled startup of the Softcam? It will have a tick next to it if you have.

    No box was unticked, ticked now and it starts up itself around 10 seconds after channel bar pops up.

    Thanks for your patience guys, totally new to Vix/Cable.
