    Signal Problem when box comes out of standby (Vu Uno)

    Hi there

    I wonder if anyone else has has this problem with their Vuo Uno.

    I am using the latest BH 1.6.6 and I have done the FPGA update.

    When my box comes out of standby after being left for a few hours I get no signal when I try to display a channel on the screen which was previously fine before the box was on standby.

    If I reset my box (GUI restart) the channel comes back no problem but this causes a big problem as I can't use timer record.

    I also get this problem when I use the media player for a period of time and then go back to watching a satellite channel.

    My LNB and cable are fine as it's okay on another satellite box that I have.

    Anyone have any ideas what is happenning ?

    You most likely have the hard drive stopping/spinning down as it goes into stanby m8.
    Failing that install Vix :-)

      Cheers for the reply

      Do you think if I reduce the time before the external HDD goes into standby then that might help ?

        Give it a go, I have mine set to zero spin down m8, no lag changing channels etc.

          How do I set it to zero spin down ?

          All I can see is an option to set the length of time before the external HDD goes into stand by.

          If I set the it to 0 under this setting it means the HDD drive is always "live"

          Thanks for your help
