Great, works fine on my 7020, using Gemini 4.6 or Darkstar 2....no need to do the DVD conversion now...perhaps!

Using DM500s,

"plugin failed to install" undefined symbol : ZN7eZapLCD8INSTANCeE

any ideas fellows, I'm guessing ots related to the fact there is no LCD on the box, but thats just a pure guess
