1. first download dreambox edit and ppv 6887 from downloads

http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/other/8/dreambox-edit-v3-0-1180/

http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/services-bouquets/19/ppv-channels-6887-1192/

2. open dream edit and ftp the files from your box to a file on computer by receving them on ftp tool

3.open the file with the files from your box

4.at the left hand side find the ppv channels go to the first ppv channel highlight right click go to copy and edit service

5 on list find service type change this to number 1 and click add

6 then drag the ppv channel what says tv drag to the tv user bouquets then it will say service added

7 then click save at the top then go to save as and save all this in the ppv 6887 folder u first downloaded at the start

8 then now you need ftp that folder to your box like on step 2 but this time instead reciving files u sending files rember on broswr path uneed select the file u going to send so send files then at right hand side click reloead command settings

9 them restart your box bobs your uncle u have it and enjoy

how would you do this with the DigitalWorldz Dream Neutrino V2.1 image?

31st March, 2010, 11:52 PM
Hi there, i'm still stumped. i can't get any channels working.

I also just don't see how this would work?

Why would we download a folder, then overwrite it with stuff from our own dreambox to then upload?

Also, all of my TV channels were already set to type 1. is this significant?

I'm in Brighton on VM if that's of any help to anyone.

Cheers

Ryk

I didnt bother d'loading the folder stuff. Just do a full scan, then use DreamEdit to get your files off the dreambox and edit the two PPV Events channels to be TV rather than data - and drag them to a bouquet. Worked a treat. Well for me anyway.

Thanks to OP though for the heads up.

what problem are you having with the tut i will c if i can help you

i've done everything as i should and was testing it last night with the ~~~~ channels but it didn't work...
dreamboxedit>download>created new bouquet called test>edited PPV + PPV by right clicking ?copy and edit service? .changed service type from 5 to 1> dragged to ?test> saved>FTPed back into box, reloaded service> unplugged box for 30 secs?.

What seems to happen is when I go into test and go on PPV I get a black screen but when I press ok it puts me into the bouquets of what ever I was watching before I changed channel?

Really doing ma head in now as I?ve got folk coming over later
:(

just to add to the thread for people like me.

i didnt need the files in the d/load section they were already in my service list when i scanned they are just hidden

if you look when scanning you will probably see ppv events,xplicit,red hot and viewers wives ect

only to find they have gone when its finished and your left with live events channel and all the ~~~~ just say xplicit nightly ect and dont work

if you can get dreambox edit to work then scroll down to look in all channels (make sure all types is selected ) you will see ppv events and the ~~~~ too

right click and the choose edit

change the 5 to a 1 and then i wrote cable tv in the other box

add it then drag and drop it to your sports boquet on the right of dreambox edit

send it back to box and re-boot

now when i look in my boquet i have a gap with no text the channels is there it just has no name but it works

mine have no name in the boquets i only know its there cos there i have a gap in my sports boquet saying n/a the ~~~~ channels all say n/a too

try in a different folder


its strange because when i go back to dreambox edit the channels do not even show up in my boquets at all

btw do you get a message saing to reboot your box after you have used dreambox edit

the easy way is to mess around with the ~~~~ channels after 11
or the stuipd way is to wait about an hour before a big event and try sorting it then (like i did) lol
