VU+DUO2 VFD Display Problems

[AJT]

Hi guys like many others having problems with my duo2 display.I have sort of sorted out the LCD and will leave it for now but the main problem is the other display.
The VFD display is very milky looks like it is bleaching out kind of out of focus has any one got any remedy's for this.
I have tried all the available set ups from vix feeds but all display in the same poor out of focus quality
Many thanks
AJT

Its terrible.I will be sending the box back..its alot of money to be having a front display that's out of focus and bleaching out..

Can you open it up without breaking warranty seals? It would be interesting to look at the electrolytics in the power supply, see if there are any sick (bulging) ones.

Mines like that also never bothered me tbh the LCD id more than enough I wish there was a way to turn the VFD off.

My first impression was 2 screens looked tacky.

Very poor show from vu+ it's supposed to be a premium 'next gen' receiver I expected everything to be of high quality

Theres is just turn brightness to nothing= no display.How you got your LCD set up.I have had a real good olay with it and settled on full picon.

I sometimes think I should of gone for the solo2 rather than the duo2 due to its poor displays the only thing keeping me sane with my decision is a know ill need the extra tuner slot in the not too distant future.

Yes,I have even tried the gigablue quad but i still was not happy.i was fooled by the 1300 mips thinking its the same as solo2 but its not as solo2 and duo2 are dual core.
