well if you have working keys in and the thing is on the box ok, id say go put it on sky sports 1 and them restart the emu/cam and wait five mins usually clears that way,


thats if it is the problem but from your post you have the keys in so it should clear.


have a go and report back.

I have all the channels, sky movies but they crash out after 30 seconds of so.
I scanned them in using a broot force UK scan. do I need to use the Irish one. They all fliker after this, or doe it just take time to get stability.

put your TV on one of the dodgy channels m8.

Press Menu

Scroll left to Information.

Stream Info, then go on to page 3. Should look like the pic below.

What snr you getting ? you should be getting around 94% or above , if your not getting anywhere near that , try a TV signal booster, then check it again.

If its still the same try a different cam.

I know Virgin have been ~~~~ing around a lot lately so might be best to leave it a few hours, can take up to 8 depending the time of day etc.

Had the same problem, I splited the signal earlier down the line, was getting big pixels all over the screen and an extremely high BER. Working fine now no crashes etc. Ps the signal booster didn't work for me, I think it boosted it too high!

Could someone tell me how I can download the DW 2.0 image from here please?

Do I need to do something to unlock downloads?

Cheers

Guys, Help.

Just done the following:

Dowloaded the DW 2.0 image
Renamed to backup.img
Placed in tmp folder

Then followed the instructions below.

Telnet Commands

To flash an image using Telnet

This method will only work with a .img image file.
Rename the image file to backup.img
FTP the image file to the /tmp folder on the dreambox
Telnet to your box and paste the following command:
Code:
cd /tmp && eraseall /dev/mtd/3 && cp backup.img /dev/mtd/3 && reboot

My dreambox has now gone from terminally ill to deceased.

Powered up and nothing, no menu, grapic, not even a flicker. Just a very troubling black screen. I have now lost the connection to my laptop also.

mpmaho2 you will need to reflash it again with dreamup and a null modem cable. That's the only way back.

Sounds if my DM500C is dead as well. Done a factory reset and deleted all the keys. Tried manually putting in the keys. Now it wont even pick up a transponder during an auto scan. Trying now to hook up the box by ethernet to my cable modem to reflash. Dont know if it will work though?

Flash it again using dreamup and a null modem cable. There's a guide at the top of the dreambox forum.

Take your time, don't rush it! Make sure you're doing the right thing and not skipping any steps. That applies to anything you do with the dreambox.

Trying to get it up and running ASAP will only get into more bother and you'll have to start again and again and again.

Flash the image, let it reboot, go to a premium channel, press BLUE then OK. The emu will stop and start and it will try to auto update the keys but they will be the wrong keys.

Then go in and edit the keylist.txt file with the latest keys, save and reboot.
