    OK, convinced the plugin to run a scan on the s2x tuner (there is a little issue) but as before on the FBC tuner it bombs out (badly - receiver is basically dead) on the 3rd quadrant........ and as the Giga (arm) blindscan add in has changed for 2 years not surprised —— I will pull down the zip and if there is a .py see what it does - 1st 2 quadrants work fine)

    .........FBC Tuners:
    ------------------> DUR-Line DCR 5-1-8-L4 Multiswitch to 1.5M dish(28.2E)
    ------------------> Spaun SUS 5581/33 NFA Multiswitch to 80 cm dish(19.2E)
    .......................> FBC & DVB-S2X into 90cm dish (27.5W) Opticum robust Unicable LNB

    What LNB are you using?

    Largely irrelevant as the the Giga Blindscan driver module ( gigablue-blindscan-utils-arm-20171115a) with a mod to the Blindscan plugin runs the 1st two quadrants and then kills the receiver (< 63349.221> [eDVBChannel] OURSTATE: failed, fatal). (The GB Trio uses a different and up to date Giga driver module)

    Debug log attached......

    However, I am using:

    Code:
    NIM Socket 8:
    	Type: DVB-S2X
    	Name: GIGA DVB-S2X NIM (TS3L10)
    	Has_Outputs: no
    	Frontend_Device: 8
    	I2C_Device: 4
    NIM Socket 9:
    	Type: DVB-S2X
    	Name: GIGA DVB-S2X NIM (TS3L10)
    	Has_Outputs: no
    	Frontend_Device: 9
    	I2C_Device: 4
    The Blindscan plugin (plugin.py) finds a blank name because it tries to use the 4th split field (which is just NIM) and sets the S2IC to not found because of this:

    Code:
    			elif line.startswith('Name:'):
    				splitLines = line.split()
    				try:
    					if splitLines[1].startswith('BCM'):
    						sName = splitLines[1]
    					else:
    						sName = splitLines[3][4:-1]
    				except: sName = ""
    Code:
    			if sNo >= 0 and sName != "":
    I forced a name selection by adding code for GIGA and selecting on the 5th split field and selected TSL310 as the tuner name .... but then the crash!

    looks as if it may always be a bit iffy with FBC tuners. I do not really need these so i may get a receiver with the standard tuners. I could add an extra tuner to Gigablue UHD quad but its £50 spent to get blind scan so I will see what Father Christmas brings me.

    You should probably get Huevos' comments but the SF8008 & Edision 4K plus have I believe good blindscan (as well as being good receivers)

    Would never use a terrestrial tuner so I would have to see which receiver has satellite tuners. Just been told to wait as she has hinted I may have a Mio coming for Christmas.

    @twol, what I mean is blindscan requires a block convertor. It can't work with Unicable.

    The 2 ts3l10 (dvb-s2x tuner) inputs are running from a quattro LNB (there is a unicable switch between - but the ts3l10 is using the switches legacy ports) - So E2 should Treat it as a normal legacy device

    What does that mean? What was the test? What tuners were used? What satellites searched? How many transponders and services did you find? Didi you find a similar amount of services in each sub-band?

    I'd like to try this OpenVIX image on my Gigablue UHD UE 4K receiver. Would you still have it available? Thanks.
