Gigablue LNB Unicable SCR 2 legacy 5.4 (release)
Positioned to 28.2E
@thedoc11, you are wasting our time. This is the Unicable forum. Forget the legacy output. DO NOT USE. Connect the Unicable output of the LNB to the splitter. Connect 2 cables from the splitter to the 2 aerial sockets of the main DVB-S FBC tuner.
If you read my previous post you will see that the only reason i was using the legacy was so my wife can continue to record her programs, so I switch between the 2.
Ideally I would like to connect through the Unicable but as I am experiencing the issues as described above so I cannot switch over permanently to unicable as I would get drop outs on recordings when i place the box into standby.
I have come to the conclusion that the issue is the unicable part of the LNB is going to sleep and therefore i am experiencing a drop out after putting the box into standby or cold booting, its taking 10 mins or so for the LNB to power up, so it looks to me there is an issue with a driver on the Giggablue quad 4k

I thought GB sorted the problem of the LNB being powered down in standby.
What image version and build are you using?
So this morning reset my GBUE4K so it just uses the Opticum - NO other connections to this LNB from ANY other receiver and no other LNB connection to the GBUE4K. There is absolutely no issue in droppping into deep standby or standby and then powering up - service access is almost immediate (there is a softcam involved). Tuners E -> H are like C & D.
settings for Unicable are:-

------------------> Gigablue unicable LNB to 80 cm dish(19.2E)
.......................> FBC & DVB-S2X into 90cm dish (27.5W) Opticum robust Unicable LNB
AX HD61, Edision Osmio 4K+, Zgemma H9Combo, Octagon SF8008 , gbtrio4k, h9se using unicable ports
Zgemma H9 C/S into Giga4K
So I would suggest connecting up as above BUT disable the C-Tuner (on both ports), so the ONLY inputs are from the Opticum (as above - everything else disabled I have a dvb-s2x plugin here but ran with it disabled for the test).... see what happens

settings file is in /etc/enigma2
unfortunately I am using different satellite NOT 28.2E so you need to change this reference in my settings to 28.2 (check what you currently have defined.
if you can do this then:
to change:
1) Putty and login to the receiver with userid/password, then type init 4 (space between) to stop box
2)Filezilla login and copy file to your PC
3) replace all the config.NIMS with mine
4) replace with 28.2!!!!
5 copy back AFTER renaming current settings file.
6) Putty enter init 6 (space between)
on my box you would replace 3325 with 282
