    strange then because on my duo2 only a tuner is used when my slave box is on.In standby no tuner is used on main box. I have nearly the same config as yours with 2 dual tuners in main box an no tuners in 2 slave boxes.Those are connecthing by fall back tuner setup ( IPADRESS) to main box.So watching 2 differant channels in differant transponders on same sat is working fine.

    i put it back to the way it was before and put tuner d at 28.2 degrees , signal sttength at near 100 percent but it will still not show the channels. i have tried a re=flash, think i am going to send the dual tuner back and go back to how it was before, very puzzling unless the tuner is faulty.

    ...maybe try the dual tuner with just one single tuner to see if you can get it working.

    sure you got the right tuner : Tuner VU+ Advanced Pluggable DVB-S2 .There are also dual tuners for duo2 and uno as well.

    what version of image are you on ? In the past there where issues with some images not working the tuner perfectly due to driver problems.Found by google.

    Twin tuner must be installed in Slot 3. You must also have single tuner modules installed to Slots 1 & 2 for the tuner to work correctly.

    To test the tuner module Set BOTH Tuner C and D to Astra 28.2.

    1) Connect a tested working satellite feed from Astra 28.2 to TOP input of the twin tuner module.
    2) Menu > Setup > Tuner Config > Manual Scan > Select TUNER C AT TOP. Set 'Type of Scan' to 'Single Satellite', press ok to scan.

    Once complete note the number of services found.

    3) Now move the exact same cable to the BOTTOM INPUT of the twin tuner module.
    4) Menu > Setup > Tuner Config > Manual Scan > Select TUNER D AT TOP. Set 'Type of Scan' to 'Single Satellite', press ok to scan.

    If you find services on both tuners C & D then the issue lies elsewhere in your setup an NOT a faulty tuner.

    If faulty WoS would exchange it for you without issue.
