    Guide: Converting Dbox2 Neutrino Services to Dreambox Enigma Services

    How Do I Convert my Dbox2 Neutrino Services to Dreambox Enigma?

    If you've made the transition from Dbox2 to Dreambox...Welcome!
    Hopefully you've still got a backup copy of your Dbox2 services.xml and bouquets.xml files.


    Required

    Digital Kaos - Downloads - Dream Bouquetter v1.7
    Dbox2 services.xml and bouquets.xml

    Instructions
    [/B]
    Install Bouquetter on your PC. It's in German but has the same installer as most applications.
    Once installed, load it from the Start Menu. Ooops, doesn't work ! You will have to go to C:\Program Files\Bouquetter\Bouquetter.exe to get the working program. Change the shortcut in the Start Menu if you want but you'll have to go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Bouquetter instead of your currenty username.


    Create a new folder on your desktop and copy your dbox2 services.xml and bouquets.xml files to there.
    • Load Bouquetter.exe
    • Select Load Services
    • Under the Load From File menu, select Neutrino

    • Select the services.xml file from the folder on your desktop
    • Select YES to the next box that comes up

    If you expand Kabel: Kabelanschluss you should see your transponders and the channels in each.
    If you expand User-Bouquets TV on the right you should see your bouquets.
    • Select Save Services
    • Under the Save To File menu, select Enigma

    • Select Enigma (services) from the filetype pulldown list
    • Call the file services (without an extention) and Save
    • Close down Bouquetter

    In your services folder on your desktop, you should now have a services and a bouquets file, without an extention, and lots of userbouquet files.

    Using your FTP client, ftp the services and bouquets files to /var/tuxbox/config/enigma on your box.
    Using your FTP client, ftp the userbouquet files to /var/tuxbox/config/enigma/cable on your box.
    If the bouquets do not show, try putting them in /var/tuxbox/config/enigma.

    If you have an image with a Reload Channels option, do this now. If you don't, you will have to to do the following...

    Open web browser and paste the following command into the address bar:

    http://192.168.xxx.xxx/cgi-bin/reloadSettings
    (replace x with your own ip address)

    Open web browser and paste the following command into the address bar:

    http://192.168.xxx.xxx/cgi-bin/reloadUserBouquets
    (replace x with your own ip address)

    You should get a screen saying OK after both these commands.

    Press OK on your dreambox then BLUE to bring up your bouquets.
    Hopefully they should all be there.


    Good Luck!

            Hi Guys,

            I have also made the transition, today actually! Any advice from those that muddled through would be appreciated. So we can use services and bouquet files? I really hope they load the same way as so far I am finding the dreambox less logical to use than the dbox was. it could just be because I am not yet used to it. Anyone recommend a good image? i currently have enigma on.

                hi
                i have transfered services and bouquets from dbox to dreambox and worked ok with other images
                I could not get them to work on ss enigma v4 dm500 image
                ( what I mean is channels were there but not in bouquets)

                this part of tut I had not seen or used before worked great

                If you have an image with a Reload Channels option, do this now. If you don't, you will have to to do the following...

                Open web browser and paste the following command into the address bar:


                (replace x with your own ip address)

                Open web browser and paste the following command into the address bar:


                (replace x with your own ip address)

                You should get a screen saying OK after both these commands.

                Press OK on your dreambox then BLUE to bring up your bouquets.
                Hopefully they should all be there.

                so a big thanks

                  I cant get this to load my services.xml files.
                  It keeps giving me an error.

                  Will this work with a PLI Jade image?

                      hi
                      as said in my other post worked great on ss enigma for dm500c and other images

                      Open web browser and paste the following command into the address bar:


                      (replace x with your own ip address)

                      Open web browser and paste the following command into the address bar:


                      (replace x with your own ip address)

                      could any body tell me will these commands work on a dbox enigma image

                      thanks again

                        That is a brilliant tutorial...

                        But how do you do it the other way round?

                        I do prefer the enigma Gemini image, however it lacks one good feature that neutrino and Dbox's have always had.... a method to do a scan and update services. Which basically means if the cable companies dedcided to change frequency or move PIDS the scan will find the new one and update that service. It even retains it in its bouquets. No more duplicate channels!!

                            Is there a way to convert the other way round?
                            Dreambox Enigma Services to Dbox2 Neutrino?

                            I have a Sky UK bouquet for a Dreambox and it would be very handy if I could convert to services.xml and bouquets.xml

                            Cheers
