    I think you will have more hassle than its worth with the Vu+ Turbo tuner. I would ask WoS and see if the offer still stands as you have tried all the available options. Stef is a reasonable guy and if he does let you swap for the internal cable tuner, snatch his hands off! The Vu+ Duo2 is an excellent receiver, just the Vu+ Turbo tuner, and to be fair has had issues since day one.

    you read my mind Andy, literally just sent an email back to them 10 minutes ago!

    just means i will need to sacrifice my single dvb-s tuner currently set up as tuner c, bit of a pain as i just last week ran another feed from my dish to it to record up to 2 ch and watch another, but to be fair i don't tend to record much anyway so with tuners a and b with sat i can still watch 1 whilst recording another

    and i assume that with the hybrid twin dvb-c/t internal i would also be able to record one dvb-c whilst watching another.

    may seem a little stupid of me to ask, but with the twin dvb-c/t internal here

    i know that the rf in is where i plugin the cable feed, but what is the rf out connection for?

    would this be for dvb-t freeview?

    thanks

    Update spoken to WoS and I have been permitted to swap the turbo for the internal hybrid one and pay the difference in price, sending it back later

    I assume with the internal it is literally a case of taking the dvb-s module out and replacing with the new one and then just switching back on and plug and play? No drivers to install?

    And because it's a hybrid will this allow one cable feed in to allow me to watch one channel whilst recording another?

    Sounds pretty straight forward but I'm a little worries about opening up the receiver in case of potential damage to other components

    hybrid = choose between DVB-C and DVB-T/T2. You can only use one mode at a time.

    To be able to record from more than one frequency/transponder, you need a twin tuner.

    N.B:
    The Vu twin hybrid tuner has only one wire connection. It has an inbuilt splitter.

    Thanks for the info much appreciated.

    So one the tuner it has an in connection and an out, the in I am guessing I will plug the cable feed into but what can the out be used for?

    If it has a built in Splitter does that mean I can record one whilst watching another with one sat feed in?

    Yes to everything you've said.
    Glad you got it sorted in the end. All you need to remember when you install the new Hybrid cable tuner is to configure it in your tuner config setup. No need to insert your Net ID there, Net ID only needs to be entered in your ABM providers list.

    Thanks Andy, all I needed to know except what will the bottom connection be used for on the tuner?

    it is for daisy chaining to another device. For example, you could have two tuner modules (DVB-C/DVB-T/Hybrid). The signal wire would go into the input. You would then connect the loop wire so signal goes out of tuner. You then connect the loop wire into the input of other tuner.



    if you are not going to do so, don't worry about it.

    There is a stuck thread in guide section about splitting/looping for DVB-C and DVB-T.

    Ok so i realise it's been what seems quite a while since my last post on this thread but up until today I hadn't got round to sorting this out

    I sent back the turbo tuner just over a week ago, and was supposed to have the internal tuner the next day however there was a few faults with shipping and stock and long story short the delivery for the tuner was attempted yesterday

    Unfortunately I was out so I missed it and was sent to the RM delivery office !!

    Luckily for me my sorting office in my area is open on a Sunday so I collected it this morning and installed it a few hours ago

    I was a bit worried about opening up the duo2 so I only did what I needed to and didn't do much as touch anything else!

    I've installed the tuner and put box back together, then decided to flash the latest openvix and start afresh

    Drum roll....

    I am happy to say, no problems whatsoever!!

    Box is as fast as ever with switching between cable and satellites and no longer does it freeze

    It also stays in standby without freezing

    So all I can learn from this experience i guess is stick with internal! - Good riddance to the turbo tuner, had nothing but headaches with it

    I've reflashed and downloaded picons/plugins/skin exactly the same setup as before and it works a treat
