    Question Astra 19 + Hotbird 13 + Vodafone Cable = Tuner fail?

    Hello

    This is my first post. I've been reading the forum as a guest for a long time but right now is time to ask for some help.
    I have a GigaBlue UE 4K with a Dual DVB-S Tuner (DVB-S2X NIM 45308X FBC) and a DVB-C Tuner (GIGA DVB-T2/C NIM TT2L10)

    Port A Sat: Astra 19,2 (HD+ Card)
    Port B Sat: HotBird 13 (Tivusat CI Module)

    So far this combination works with no issue at all.
    Recently I got Sky (Via Vodafone/Kabel Deutschland with a G02 Card). Card is active and working (With both Sky Q and the Gigablue Box)

    Issue is, when I change between Hotbird and Vodafone (For example, Watching RAI3 HD and I change to Sky One, then back to any Hotbird channel), cable signal and Sat. drops to zero (Hotbird to be exact). When unplugging Hotbird (Port B), and restarting the box, Cable works fine.
    This behaviour does not occur with Astra. For Example, Watching RTL HD then changing to Sky Atlantic, and then back to ARD, signal stays there, constant and with no issue.

    I've tried many config combos (Along with several images as well), also swapping port A and B for satellite, but for some reason Hotbird is the culprit here.

    I have 2 different Sat Dishes (For Astra and HB)

    I even got the Xbox One Tuner to see whether it was the tuner or not, but the Xbox Tuner doesn't pick up any channel.

    Have you also faced this issue when trying to combine 2 Sat + Cable? Is the DVB-C Tuner faulty maybe?

    Many thanks for reading.


    Edit: I've added the value I have for all 3 Tuners.

    Which image are you using? - different images have different coding for FBC tuners, so important to know which image
    I also assume you are using general LNB's on the sat dishes, not unicable.
    Gigablue Quad 4K & UE 4K
    .........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
    AX HD61, Edision Osmio 4K+, Zgemma H9Combo, Octagon SF8008 , gbtrio4k, h9se using Legacy ports on multiswitches
    Zgemma H9 C/S into Giga4K

    Hey. Thanks for replying
    I'm currently using teamblue 6.4.0 (2021-05-25) (Latest) and Kernel 4.1.20 / 20200723.
    To be honest, I've tried with Several. OpenATV, OpenVix, Stock One (Which is super limited as well!), among others.

    And yeah, I'm using general LNB. In fact, just to try something else, I just ordered this from Amazon, to see maybe using one single sat port with both sats do the trick.

    I'm confused.
    Why are you sending DiSEqC ?
