Vu+ Turbo Problem

[micscave]

Is there going to be a solution to this problem as we're nearly six weeks down the line without being able to use cable?

Is there any way to use the old driver?

Regards

Hi Guys,

I too am having the same problem on a VU uno, Tried on latest firmware and 3.2.037, no joy with either, cannot see the tuner when in service searching,

Will VIX be able to resolve this issue for the older boxes?

Still not fixed with new image 4.2.001 on my duo. Exact same fault, when try to install new driver screen flashes and does not install or installs faulty as tuner is still not seen. Been a while now without cable tv, can anyone give an update or a temporary fix as issue is affecting several members. Cheers Ged.

If possible can whoever is in charge of feeds put the old driver (r2) back available for download?

[micscave]

Is there going to be a resolution to this problem please? I only got about a month of use from this tuner before this problem occurred & it's been nearly 2 months without cable now.

Everyone's best bet is to fire an email off to Vu themselves and complain. The more the merrier.

Not sure what to say to Vu?

rossi2000 indicated in post 13 that this would be fixed within the image in due course.

Can we not just use the last driver that worked which was -r2?

Only other suggestion is flash with the last image it worked with then ftp into the box and save the old drivers to your desktop and then reinstall the latest image and then ftp the old drivers across to the box and overwrite.

Hi Andy
That sounds like a plan, when I FTP into the box, where would I find the driver?

Sorry for the late reply buddy. You can find the drivers in; lib/modules/3.14.28-1.8/extra
Bear in mind that the /3.14.28-1.8/ folder will most likely differ as this is taken from my Vu+ Solo4K, but the contents in the /extra/ folder is what you want to save to your desktop as they are the drivers you will require to ftp over when you flash the new image. When transferred, restart your receiver and hopefully you will be able to view cable again.

Hello again micscave, I ftp'd the folders Andy said before and after installing the driver. However nothing changed in the folder Andy said so I did a bit of comparing between before and after and I think I found what I think are the drivers in the following folders (I used vix 3.2 as r2 is still in the feeds)

lib/modules/3.9.6/kernel/drivers/media/usb

this folder contains 3 folders which i believe contain r2 of the driver dvb-usb, dvb-usb-v2 & vuplus

cannot confirm if this will work as have not had time to try yet as family are using box, will report back as soon as I try

You could be right buddy. Sorry for my previous post.

Hi gedclarke
That looks promising, I'll have a proper look over the weekend and report back. In the meantime, if you try it, let us know what happens.

Okay I've had a play with this without any success. I downloaded all the suggested folders from Vix3.2.
I then installed the latest image and ftp into box and transferred the previously downloaded folders to the relevant folder, rebooted and still the cable tuner doesn't show up.

Would it be possible for one of the VIX team to upload the r2 driver so that we can properly install it please?
Or doesn't it work like that?

I've just tested VU+ USB tuner on a Zero, I can't see any issue.

Anyone having an issue please do exactly as follows:

1) Take a backup of your existing image, you may need it again.
2) Connected USB tuner to USB port.
3) USB re-flash and setup complete fresh OpenViX 4.2.001. Do not install ANYTHING extra. Just complete the first install wizard, skip scanning.
4) Using 'Putty' telnet install USB Turbo tuner drivers using command below:

opkg install enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-turbo

You should see something like below:
