You must have 4gb USB drive or a larger USB drive permanently connected if you want to record programs and use the EPG, also the box connect by LAN to the internet.

Due to this been on DK forums, I won’t give instructions on how to install any lines, all I’ll say is Blue button and second option down then ask google.

OpenAtv 5.3 Stable Zgemma H series Only Dropbox download link below

Install Backup image
1. On PC format USB drive to FAT32 (quick)
2. Unzip ‘Openatv Backup image.zip’ image
3. Transfer ‘zgemma’ folder to root of USB drive
4. Insert USB into SAT box (Rear USB port) and Power on.
5. Once ‘USB’ displayed on Box a quick press and release ‘standby’ button on box, this will then display ‘FLASH’
6. Leave box, it should take 5 mins to flash then it will auto boot into BBC 1 HD

Set Up USB Hard drive for Recording/Time shift and EPG storage
1. Remove USB Boot drive and Insert your Storage USB drive
2. Menu-setup-system-storage devices-Initialisation, Select your drive and format it
3. Menu-setup-system-storage devices-Ext3 to Ext4, Select your drive and change filesystem
4. Reboot

AutoBuoquetsMaker (ABM) ie auto channel finder and favs maker
ABM is already setup for the London Custom Area, with Adult channel/etc hidden .

If you wish to change Sky UK area from London or to unhid/hid Adult/etc then;
Menu-setup-service searching-ABM-Update Config Files
Menu-setup-service searching-ABM-Providers to the following;
? Sky UK Area- Scroll right to get ‘your area’ custom ie mine’s Scottish East Custom this will replace all none working HD channels with their working SD conterparts
? Menu-setup-service searching- ABM -Hide Bouquets tick/untick as required, green to save
? Menu-setup-service searching- ABM-Start Scan, this will add all the relevant channels for your area

Setting up EPG
EPG is set to update at 00:01 daily, but the initial download needs to be carried out
1. Menu-Setup-Epg-EpgImporter
2. Press 'Yellow' then select 'Yes' (It does take a few seconds to start and the download will goto about 90k+ events)
3. Ensure Menu-Setup-EPG-settings ‘EPG Location’ is correct ‘/media/hdd’, if says ‘internal’ scroll to ‘/media/hdd’
4. Menu-Setup-EPG-load/save/delete – save EPG

**Remember for the EPG and Channel lists to Update daily the Zgemma needs to be in 'standby' at night**
**If you prefer to turn the Zgemma fully off at night then Menu-Setup-Epg-Epgimport-config and set the update time to a time of your convenience during the day, else the EPG won't update'

System image & Plugin updates
System & Plugin updates, I advise only need to be done whenever there is a problem with the Zgemma or if recommend by users on the forum. The majority of the time only major Autobouquetsmaker corrections need to be done ie a Lot of new channels appear and you haven't got them, just do this;
Menu-setup-service searching-Autobouquetsmaker-Update Config Files then rescan

For a System update
menu-setup-software management-software update.
