    All my boxes undergo 2 step flashing procedure: a standalone flash erase, then followed by proper standard flash via networked DreamUp flashing.

    Chatted with one of the chinese engineer of the China (ShenZhen) STB factory, he did mentioned that in some cases, there would be chances where malware infected image still resident after a new flash, a flash erase is advised.

    All sets handled by me using this approach for months, no adverse effect on the operation.
    When you select NO (nein) to flash-erase on Dream-Up the
    procedure will auto-erase flash as part of flashing new image
    Don't know why but if you opt for flash-erase before flashing
    new image box will HANG on re-boot. As always best advice is
    WHATEVER WORKS FOR YOU, STICK WITH IT

    Hi All bro here,

    I should have read this forum first before I buy my 500C, i bought it at $200, is it expensive? I am sure it is cloned yet.
    I have a question in mind, how come by upgrading the image it can solve the "blank screen" issue. I thought "blank screen" is because it is too hot and somehow some parts are spoilt.

    Ok now who should i look for to buy 800 HD for singapore?

    Can say it is expensive. Best is to backup the keys & roms in var/ keys and var/scce folder and also do a full image backup in case something goes wrong with yr set.

    Internally mounted heatsink could do only limited cooling if the ventilation of the entire unit is bad, hot air need to exit, otherwise u are simply cycling hotair. Convention oven?

    Probably a good idea to use USB powered fan, and blow across the STB externally to create some draft to cool the unit.

    Open up the top cover as well so your set will be naked!! It will be ugly but it will sure help on the cooling part!!

    Guess you are still a noob when it come to DM500C.
    Had you ever tried the "Software update" in the Setting menu? Internet Update? Using OpenPLi image?

    I can update my DM500C to the latest OpenPLi version up to latest version, generally release less than 1 day old, whereas using PLi Jade, the depositary is never/hardly updated since 2009.

    Update by select the image (5MB) via online menu, it will flash and reboot. I just need to download the latest menu and install softcam & softcam config, download the skins, and the box is back in action with the latest image, retaining the old boutique/service data and the keys.

    No offence, you would really need to know more stuff before jumping into the Q&A game.
    Bro don't get me wrong ok i just tested flashing my 500c using dreamup method to flash my backup jade img. Here's the result :
    1. I select ''YES'' to perform flash erased when asked,the answer is the box is factory default jade image/ftp all the necessary file to revive the box/now box is as normal function.
    2. Perform factory reset/ftp box found no keys, rom files, camd, cable xml & channel list bouquet. So now the box is factory default jade images again.
    3. Perform flash again using dreamup with the same backup jade img.only this time i select ''NO'' to perform flash erased, the answer is my box have all the backup images intact so to say plug & play.
    So the question is who's the one who should know more stuff regarding Q&A, If u think this is a game for me you're dead wrong infact this is a hobby to me & i guess many bro here agree with me, there will be trial & error if u do experiment as a hobbies. So i think u should say sorry to all bro here for making a wrong remark that can lead to misunderstood about flashing.
    Yes i did go on line once a while to update my box just to catch up so that i remember if some newbies face difficulty in installing camd online.
    Yes i admit i'm still a noobs & i don't mind about it, we are here to share doesn't mean u smart u know all the answer there will be someone smarter than u & if u think you're smarter there will be someone smartest than u. Just my 2 cents & sorry to have disturb your day
