Image Issue or H/W, Firmware ?? - VU+DUO 2

    Recently bought a VU+Duo2 ( 2 x DVB-S & 1 DVB-T) from a shop in Dublin, came with VIX Apollo Build 126.

    Although I had no problems with channel reception, if I went to use any plugins/addons or to look at the network or any other settings, the box would crash and re-boot.

    The vendor removed the vix image and installed BH 2.1.5
    Now this image is the opposite of the Vix, in that sometimes I don't have all channels working (none of the Saorview), but I can go in to any menu item and the box wont crash - except for one - tuner configuration (Tuner C DVB-T)
    Other times some of the saorview channels are working and all satellite channels are working.

    The following are the settings within Tuner Configuration, Tuner DVB-T , you'll notice there's no setting within "Terrestrial Provider" - when ok is pressed within this, the box crashes and re-boots ( I've attached the log)

    Tuner C
    DVB-T Selected & enabled
    Config Mode: enabled
    Terrestrial Provider:
    Enable 5v for active antenna: Off

    When some of the saorview channels work, Terrestrial Provider is set to
    Europe DVB-T Frequencies

    Unless the crashlog points to some particular issue been at fault then I'm thinking (as a complete novice) that the receiver is ok and that the problem is with the images??

    If it's an image issue I have, what stable image have you got on your VU+DUO2 ???

    I put openatv 4.2 image on my duo2 and it works perfect with only a few crashes which are down to plugins that haven't worked properly.

    I think there is a new openatv 5 image out now but I haven't tried it.

    Did you put in Catseye Setting into your receiver?
    When i do that the Terrestrial Scan crashes the receiver.
    I am looking into this at the moment.
