    Exclamation Ultimo 4K and VU+ Turbo Tuner Install

    Current set-up: Image VTi 11.0.1 - Ultimo 4K 2*FBC Twin Tuner & 1*DVB S2 Twin Tuner; Dish 1 - 36V Motorized 2.2M antenna (45°W - 45°E): Dish 2 - Motorized 1.0M antenna: Dish 3 - Fixed antenna at 28.2°E

    Heads-up on FCC plugin

    Hi all,
    I'm just getting to grips with new Ultimo 4K and got round today to setting up the box.

    Now let me state I'm a OpenBlackHole user and currently as VTi have the only image currently available for the Ultimo 4K I'm using it so I'm a bit unsure of its abilities!

    I got all my sat connections from my 3 dishes fitted satisfactorily and all seem to be working as they did with my Duo 2 set-up. Then I attached my VU+ USB Turbo tuner (for local Freeview terrestrial reception) and whilst it was seen by the Ultimo 4K, I had sound but NO picture on my terrestrial TV channels!

    After a bit of Googling on the Net I found that others had experienced a similar issue with the Solo 4K model ... the FCC (Fast Channel Change) plugin seemed to be the issue!! After I switched it off in the VTi image the channels via the Turbo tuner appeared!!

    So I think its either a VTi image issue or the FCC plugin??!


    Hope this helps any others setting up theier new machine!

    Yeh it's either a bug in the FCC plugin, or a driver issue, but it's the same on the Solo4K, Uno4K and Ultimo4K with any usb tuner as far as i'm aware.
