Hello

I got problem with my ultimo, I connect tuner A works fine, when I connect tuner B, screen will be as below, I thought there is problem with tuner itself, removed tuner A and B and checked individually each tuner singe, both tuner works fine alone, problem pop up if only i connect B tuner.

FYI, I don't have problem with my Duo, i used latest official software release, still problem remains. do you think that i need to upgrade FPGA?

If you haven't updated it before, do it now.

Thanks for your quick reply,

I do not remember, but i shall do it and update you result here, i got below drivers and FPGA update:-

h**p://archive.vuplus.com/download/fpga/vuultimo/4.5/
h**p://archive.vuplus.com/download/drivers/

by the way, said drivers suppose not to be included in new images? as mentioned before, I used latest official release and last two BH release!

Regards,

I suggest to use dedicated plugin to upgrade FPGA instead to select manual files.

Thank you Boss
after update of FPGA via dedicated plugin in BH, tuner B working fine 100%

Remained Q? Why latest images even original been released while still We need to update FPGA! Why FPGA not included with new images.

Thank you

FPGA it's a dedicated hardware chip on the mainboard of Ultimo box and needs a dedicated plugin (operations) to be updated.
When you update it, you don't need anymore to do the same operations when you reflash and/or change image.
When Vu+ releases a new upgrade all users will be noticed with this Board and the official Vu+ web site too.

Actually there is no FPGA upgrade for Duo2 but only VFD controller who increase RC sensitivy :)
The VFD controller upgrade is similar than FPGA upgrade and it's done via a dedicated plugin
