[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 741332, member: 82144"] Hi again iiipm In answer to your question: I'm not sure, but I'm not ready to give up yet. Let me tell you what I see in your latest logs and you can make a decision about whether you want to carry on or not...

We're back to the errors that we had with the first set of logs where the tuner couldn't be initialized.
