This section will appear, OK time to insert your Dreambox details (Only need to do this once).

IP of Dreambox :- Whatever your IP, Your Dreambox uses to access the Internet (Usually found in Network settings on Dreambox)

Username = root | Password = dreambox | These are the default settings input as I have or unless you changed them manually enter what you changed them to.

Enigma1 = Dreambox 500, 600, 7020 Users Click Satellite Receiver (Grey Box - Right Hand Side) then file path should say this :- /var/tuxbox/config/enigma/

Enigma2 = Dreambox 500 HD, 800, 8000 Users Click Enigma2 Settings (Grey Box - Right Hand Side) then file path should say this :- /etc/enigma2/

Click on Advanced Tab and make sure Display 'Reboot Dreambox' option on FTP screen is ticked

Click save and thats you done with this bit.


Step 3 :- Now click Open Icon, or (File > Open) Browse your Downloaded Bouquet and click OK, Will Look like the image below

Changing Regional Channels, Find your Regional Channel and drag it across from left column into the middle column and delete the one you don't want (Do this for BBC & ITV channels) make sure you click save.

Step 4 :- Ready to send files to Dreambox now. Click FTP icon http://www.sgtflipflop.ukfsn.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/ftp.png or (File > FTP)


http://i.imgur.com/ZYWIS.png


First set out exactly how I have Untick all 3 boxes at the bottom left.

Select IP Settings Set :- Make sure the profile you created is chosen.

Now click 'Send Files To Dreambox' Let it do its job, It should say complete.

Next click 'Reload Settings On Dreambox' Again let it do its job, It should say complete.

Finally click 'Reboot Dreambox' and by now your new settings should be uploaded to your Dreambox

The End.

Right, tried this, seem's when I hit reload setting's ( this might take a few mins ) It say's command ready, nothing happens, so I waited bout 5 min's, then decided to hit reboot to see if anything happen's. Now all I have is a flashing Darkstar logo.Also cannot connect to ip now. Suppose I may reflash, any advice ?
Ok, I was able to send my old list back to dreambox with the same method, so what am I missing? Only difference I can see, is I've got an extra box unticked ( picon's ). I've a dm 500s, set to Enigma1.
Just had a look in expert setting's, should I have auto bouquet change enabled ?

When you open the advanced tab make sure you have the allow duplicate entries in bouquet tab ticked.

[SGTFlipFlop]

When you open the advanced tab make sure you have the allow duplicate entries in bouquet tab ticked.


Makes no difference that

[RuberDuck]

When you open the advanced tab make sure you have the allow duplicate entries in bouquet tab ticked.

that only really applies to bouquet packs such as the B16MCC pack so that it follows the sky uk channel listing.

[MR-T]

this should be made a sticky,as i have used this for months and found it very useful indeed,as it saves time tunning all then sats manually.

[abu baniaz]

When I open dreamboxedit, I only get two panes. I don't seem to get the bouquet pane. I can transfer to the STB without a problem.

Could someone point out how to enable this pane. I'm using version 4.0.1.0

Many thanks

[porter1]

the screenshots off the dreambox edit guide have disappeared...such a brilliant guide too

Still there for me mate

[mugabe]

Thanks very much.
looked through the guide its seems its the best as well, but as i told you am novice,well i tried step by step on the guide but could not connect to the box as the ip address i found on the box is this, :192.168.1.36
and srv ip address is this:192.168.0.40.
router ip is : 192.168.1.1
default ip : 192.168.0.5
i tried using the first one and it said failed to connect.
so which one am i suppose to use?
also from the guide you have to load the bouquets,so do i have to manuely design the bouquets on my pc and load them? or have to contact the one who sold the card sharing to me?
please help me as am very Novice to this dreambox.

Thanks

[daithi]

hi when im in dreambox edit i cant see enigma 1 settings i can only see inegma 2 settings

[reddevil157]

Hey Daith, just click sat in the bottom left corner and you'll see the paths change and save it.

[daithi]

cheers mate got it sorted i had the wrong bouquet downloaded

[raz469]

hi there. do you need to worry about setting the box up for ftp from within the box menus with this guide/program?

[gibson]

Thankyou for this brlliant guide. Never got this to work until today when I followed your excellent tuitorial.:congrats:

Best wishes from,

Gibson.

[utdman]

i have manually set my bouquets and want to save them on my pc and will reload my set-up to other db500s etc,

how do i save the bouquets?

cheers

[SGTFlipFlop]

Create a location, Then

File > Save As

Save to your new folder

[utdman]

created a folder on desktop,
dl dreambox edit

got to step 3 on opening page trying to locate/connect to dreambox for my saved bouquet list.

stuck :afraid:

[utdman]

connected, transfered the channel bouquets into a new created folder on desktop.

:top:

[cagneyboy]

Hi,

When I get to the OPEN FOLDER i get boxes with my computer details;
C
DOCUMENTS
etc.

I have downloaded a bouquet and saved it on my desktop but it does not show up to open, any ideas where i am going wrong.

Thanks

If its in a rar file you need to use winrar to extract them first.

Extract out the folder, it wont say desktop , C:users/yourname/desktop/find the folder

or put it in another folder and find it via dreamboxedit

[donkeyboy]

thanks for this
just 1 thing and im not picking at it
but sky 3 is not there
cheers

[SGTFlipFlop]

There is no such channel as Sky3 now, Its called Pick TV

[donkeyboy]

~~~~~~~~ me that was a response
how do i put the picons on if you dont mind me asking
PS i deleated pick tv coz it didnt work

[SGTFlipFlop]

FTP the folder to any off these locations

/usr/share/enigma2
NOT recommended, because of limited capacity of the flash memory (Sky UK picons will be ok)

/media/hdd
HDD will keep running indefinitely and may affect image performance

/media/cf
Recommended if CF available and successfully mounted (8000/800)

/media/usb
Recommended if USB available and successfully mounted (8000/800)

[donkeyboy]

sorry im still learning
am i doing this in dreambox edit or DCC

sorry m8 for the noob question

[reddevil157]

Use Dcc to ftp the picons

[donkeyboy]

which file do they go in m8

[reddevil157]

I put mine in here: /media/usb
Recommended if USB available and successfully mounted (8000/800) as recommended by SGTFlipFlop. I've got a 2 gb usb stick that I store them on

[donkeyboy]

ok ive got 2g usb stick so i now put files onto stick is that right
and then put into back of dm800

[reddevil157]

nah m8, put your stick in your box lol, format it and mount it. Open Dcc, ftp-click media/usb in the left panel, find the unrar'd FlipFlop Picon folder on your pc in the right panel- highlight and press the arrow to the left, takes a bit of time. If I remember correctly.

[donkeyboy]

k man will give it ago :roflmao:

[SGTFlipFlop]

If the picon directory doesn't exist on the Dreambox send the folder and all the files over, If it is there just send the files

[greatcapp]

Would anybody be able to figure out where I'm going wrong here?

I can follow the tutorial, and after rebooting my DM500 I can see the imported bouquets, but If I select any of the channels that show up in the new bouquet, then I just get a blank TV screen. It seems that the information of the imported bouquet doesn't match up with information I have on my box.

On my box, If I select "User bouquets" and then "Satellites" (green button), I can select Astra, then scroll through to see all the channels that are available, but for instance BBC1 London shows up and works as number 2289, but under the bouqeuts I've loaded on, it shows up as 1 and doesn't work.

I'm struggling.
EDIT

I should point out that I'm on Jade PLi just in case that helps.

Thanks.

**EDIT**

Figured it out myself. From my initial setup, when doing initial transponder scan, I'd been scanning 19.2 and not 28.2. Not sure why it still found channels, but it did. Still, all ok now.

[markshore]

Hi great bouquets but having some trouble with mine i have modified them for use with air video for iphone by adding another bouquet to yours have ticked allow duplicate entries in user bouquets in settings.
Opened dreambox edit and opened your latest bouquet, opened tools and went to compare loaded services with services from dreambox selected all and updated active file set (showed the changed new frequency for MGM HD as delete?)thought it worked but no it has not any ideas as to where i am going wrong.
Regards
Mark:afraid:


Hi anyone any ideas as too where I am going wrong or how this should be done to preserve my modified bouquet, just read in the first post that the Dreambox needs to be re-booted after sending the new bouquets mine always shows the correct info so perhaps that is where I am going wrong with my modified bouquets.

Regards
Mark

[barrowmanandrew]

thanks for the guide, i'm having problems trying to get it work.. lol

i have followed the instructions, but when i start the ftp i get an error message.

62621

[mikk]

When I choose the flip flop bouquet there are only two channels there? Its doing something as the fta channels are in the right order if not numbered correctly, and the epg is screwed up too, or do I need a seperate file for that, any ideas?

Obviously I'm thick, not working at all now, file transfers but remains in alphabetical order on box??

have you downloaded dbe onto your laptop??
if you have then there should be an icon on your desktop
click the icon and open dbe.
now read the first post by sgt flip flop slowly and carefully
DON'T press the "send files to dreambox" until you are familiar with dbe
in this way you will not "mess your box up "
just get used to dbe
when you are sure you understand it then uploading channel lists and picons will come easy for you
you need time and a lot of patience but you will get there
(its easy when you know how) take your time

[robbeno]

Abr thx f reply, no I've not downloaded anything yet
dbe Do I google this,
Dreamboxedit, I looked earlier couldn't see a download anywere I will try again wen I'm home
Thx bud hopefully I get there, cos this guy wants ?15 to come around & do it for me, not sure if I even need it doing : all channels are there only setanta is missing, and epg gets lost, will this bouquet upload sort this out ?

this is dbe download it to your laptop it is the same as the one shown by sgt flip flop.

the channel lists only really require updating if you can't receive them such when they change freq.

with regards to setanta you need to ask the ( supplier)
not spoken about on here m8

many people have problems with epg atm i download rytec sky-uk manually and it is working today

?15 for uploading a channel list :o
all the help is given on this forum
just need patience and not expect everything to be done without a bit of know how:embarassed:

You wont get anywhere like this mate.
Theres a simple guide out there,most make the simple mistake in not opening the bouquet and then trying to send them.
Worth a bit of effort and if you really cant do it im sure someone will talk you through it on msn.

Newbie question, does the 500s need tho be connected to the computer whilst doing this? Or just plugged into the router?

Thanks

[mtv1]

just router mate but if using a laptop it needs to be hardwired to router also learnt the hard way :)

[B2K420]

Hello all,
When I got to File -> FTP -> box checked Select files to receive -> Click on Receive files from Dreambox -> I only check boxes for Users Bouquets TV & Users Bouquets Radio -> Click ok -> I get below Error message

"You must first use the FTP option to copy all necessary files from the dreambox to your PC".

When I click ok on this Error Message -> Information box pops up with message "Successfully received the file-set from the Dreambox" -> I click on OK.

In the DBE 5.0.0.3 I see no bouquets information -> when I go to my Directory I see DBE has saved the files there.

If I click on Receive files from Dreambox and leave the box "select files to receive" unchecked it does it straight away and I can see the bouquets in DBE.

Please can you tell me why I am unable to see the Users bouquets in DBE when I just want to extract them from DB?
If I want to update the Bouquet order I need to open User bouquet TV file with what program -> Can I amend the channel Name -> or only the channel order of the bouquet?

Also the Picons are not visible in DBE.

[superkl]

I used the default root/dreambox as username and password. The box is not locked even when i tried to access the menu "setup" while watching on TV. I "test ip connection", it works and connects, even in ftp, but only cant get through the username and password.

Why i couldnt login?
Any other ways to login or disable the username/pw?

Any advice is greatly appreciated =)

Hi fellows teammate.
Here is all a big thanks to the experts on this forum. Over this forum i understand quite a number of things. Well, I am not a pro over this DB thingy but still trying to digest it. LOL.
So now my problems comes, hahahaha..
I have done a flash on my db800 PVR using Dream Elite 3.0 Version 008 sim2-SSL-84b.nfi... All is done and have boot up.. But problem is , i cant view channel on SH... Theres a key logo on the info bar. After which, I follow SGTFlipFlop (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/members/80211-sgtflipflop/) guide on using DBedit but my version is dreamboxEDIT ver 5.0.0.2 .. I manage to follow his steps till step 2. Well . For step 3 i couldnt follow is , i could not find open Icon. So I still try to use open to try it out but it prompt me with an error msg "Direc C:// contains no file called satellite.xml. You can contiune editing the file-set but now there is no translation from satellite position to satellite name avaliable.
You might consider to first copy all necessary files from the dreambox to your PC with the FTP function." So now , i am not sure my SH channel could not be view is due to what reason. Can the pros guide me along. Thanks...

This is for a little hint for those who encounter root n PW problems..
For me, i also encounter the same problems. So i was sooo pissed off with the problem that i actually delete the PW on the /var/etc. This steps is easy but i am not sure will there be an after effect. Anyway , I just provide my knowledge.
First, you must have a plugin call "filebrowser".
So you select the plugin n find /var/etc. Over there, you will see two file containing passwd and -passwd. I deleted this two files. So now i can connect ftp using root n security is set to passive. Now, i am able to connect via fireftp n dbedit.

[yasslimz]

Hi

Great tutorial was doing really well until Step 4 where it says:
"Now click 'Send Files To Dreambox' Let it do its job, It should say complete." I get this message "Connecting to 192.168.1.77.
Could not connect to Dreambox. Check IP Address, network settings and status of Dreambox" However if I go to 1)Tools 2)Options and select Test IP Connection it says "Successfully connected to IP address 192.168.1.77 port 80" I am baffled.

I'm looking to put this on my box, does it have to be connected to the internet? any other way to transfer the files?

Might be able to do it with a cross over cable but doing it wirelessly is best with a laptop.

Have you gone into tools then options and put the ip address of the Dreambox in and done a test?

Are you sure the dish is looking at the satellite you are trying to scan.

I have dreambox 600 pvr, i use dreamboxEDIT, I go Tools->Options->Profiles i click Test IP Connection it says Successfully connected...I click Test Username/Password it says Could not connect...(Before that i pressed blue button which is at remote control->Plugins->TuxBox Commander i went to var/etc/ i deleted passwd and i renamed passwd- to passwd and saved it. Normally the username has to be root and password has to be dreambox). I use username: root password: dreambox FTP port: 21 and doesn't work (I mentioned above) i don't know if FTP port: 21 is correct, how can i find the correct FTP port? Why username:root and password:dreambox are wrong? How can i find the correct username and password? Please help me

Hi, I followed the instruction to edit the regional channels by dragging my BBC and ITV regions to the middle window and deleted the Scottish ones, but when I transfer the bouquet they havn't changed. I did save the changes and reboot by the way.

Also the lettering type stays black, not green as the rest of the bouquet list does. Don't know if this is important.

I'm probably missing something simple here so any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks

UPDATE
I've managed to suss this out. I realised That you have to drag your changed channels to the list in the right pane as well, then save your changes and send to VU box.

Would be a good start :)


Also thanks for the great guide

[garyoakley]

Wow, what a great guide. I've been struggling to import bouquets to a dm600 for weeks now. Followed the guide & success !. Many thanks, it will stop me pulling more hair out.

I am currently using Catseye's and Autobouqets.

I first transfer Catseye over to the box, then go to say BBC1 and run autobouquets to generate the 28E lists. This gives me 28E twice, but I don't mind that really. I have then set up pin access for all the not so child friendly bouquets.

At the next release of Catseye, I will then transfer that over, but here's where my questions start. When I have done this in the past, it replaced everything that was there previously and I just ran Autobouquets again.

Does this also mean I will lose the pin locks on the previous bouquets too?

Is there a more efficient way to do what I am doing?

[Avf130]

If i decide to update my Bouqets, the new ones overwrite the old ones?
Or i get "kaos" in bouqets

Thanks

hi all. im trying to ftp a new version of a bouquet but dbe is asking to check my username and password. ive not had a problem before, they are both root and dreambox by the way. the only explanantion may be that im using port forwarding on my router to view the box away from home on the laptop via vlc player. therefore ports 21 and 80 are assigned to the box ip....is this interfering with my using port 21 from my laptop?

It should not interfere with it at all as DBedit connects via the usual ports whether open or not externally, Which brings me to another matter you do realise that opening the 2 most common ports externally opens you up for attack by any roving port bots looking for these being open, There was one not long ago that originated from Isreal just to give you the heads up
