So ...

I have Sundteck Media TV and Digital Home MSI DigiVox mini II v3.0.

Both work perfectly apart, but not at all together.
For Sundtek SundtekControlCenter plugin and use MSI drivers, firmware have just installed everything from the food.
Where the dongle detected as dvb-t is, ie MSI, though work Sundtek and MSI inactive is.

What should I do the alee both to run to make...

It is certainly possible with PLi, but perhaps not with the vuduo.

It is also possible with vu-duo to have two usb dvb tuners as it currently supporting two vtuner interfaces.

 

I would rather choose standard usb dvb tuners supported by linuxtv then anything else.

Are you using powered USB hub for the tuners before connected to vu-duo ?

It seems to me you are straining the power resources.

 

You can hardly get one usb tuner working when connected to the bcm hub port - just imagine how two will work in same time.

 

Also , try changing the sundtek with something else and see how its working.

Doesn't sundtek have some config option telling it to reserve the second dvb adapter for the dvb-usb device?

this is weird, but it works only Sundtek, although Nim Socket 2 DVB-T is

Yes, Sundtekplugin has this function, but it is off.
Or should I change what?

Yes, I think you should try to use that function.
The 'real' dvb-usb device should be adapter1, so sundtek should skip that, and use adapter2 instead.
That might very well solve your problem.

so it is using /dev/dvb/adapter2, which is correct.

Sundtek looks like this:

What do you mean " changing the sundtek with something else"
Not understood

 

Sorry, I do not own a Sundtek, only trying to help - was meant if you can try a different usb tuner any type to confirm.

 

Is the tuner setup in both modes DVB-T and DVB-C and then switched only to one ?

 

If both vtuner0 and vtuner1 are used by one device you will have the behaviour you describe.

Unfortunately I have no other USB tuner. Only Sundtek (dvb-c) and  MSI Digivox (dvb-t).

No, I can`t  switch between the tuner. If both tuners connect, then DVB-T recognizes but works Sundtek... weird right? To force work DVB-T actually, I need to get Sundtek out. So they only work separately from each other.

Yes, I also think that  Sundtek may another usb tuner disturb. Not sure but ...
Incidentally what for DVB-C tuner you use?
