    DM600 services.xml

    for some reason I can't find the services file on a 600T.
    I have tried it in the CLi image and in the Gemini image, but cant find them. Is it alwats a services.xml or is it a different format. They were easy to find in the 500's with the DW image.

    Also wondering if any of the ftp progs have a search function to help look for folders or files.....

      have looked there, but no joy, there is a servives file, but it is not a .xml file it is a .txt file and I dont think that is the correct services file to load them from one box to another.

      there should be a services.xml somewhere shouldn't there . .??

        Services and Bouquets

        When you do a transponder scan on your dreambox, automatic or manual, a services file is automatically generated with the frequencies and services ids of all the channels found. If you have successfully done a services scan and found all the channels, there's no need to copy over additional services files.

        So you've managed to get all your channels and set up your bouquets just the way you want them. The first thing you want to do is back them up to your PC for safe keeping. If you need to flash the image again, for whatever reason, it's always good to have the services and bouquets backed up, then you simply copy the files to the box instead of setting them up from scratch again. Neutrino and Enigma are different in the way they store the services and bouquets.

        Enigma

        With enigma images, the services file doesn't have an extention and is stored in the following location:

        services - /var/tuxbox/config/enigma


        With enigma, each bouquet you create has it's own userbouquet file. These files are stored in:

        userbouquet.*****.tv - /var/tuxbox/config/enigma/cable

        There's also a file called bouquets (without extention) in /var/tuxbox/config/enigma that you want to backup as well.

        So when you're backing them up to your PC you want to copy the 'services' and 'bouquets' files from ../enigma and all the 'userbouquet' files from ../enigma/cable folder.

        Once you've copied them back to your dreambox, use the browser reload commands below. They won't take effect unless they are reloaded.
        Some images may have a 'ReloadChannels' option, usually in the BLUE button menu or User Features menu, this can also be used to reload the channels.

        Neutrino

        With neutrino images, the file system is more like the dbox2.

        services.xml - /var/tuxbox/config/zapit
        ubouquets.xml - /var/tuxbox/config/zapit

        All your bouquets are stored in the ubouquet.xml file instead of an individual file in enigma.

        Same as above, you will need to reload the channels before they will take effect. On neutrino images, there's usually an option in the Services Menu to reload channels
