    Help Help.I feel for it and re-scaned? Now how do i view them

    Hi i wonder if you can help,i got a dream box for my parents from a friend ,any time there was a problem ,like loosing channels my friend would fix it,so instesd of constantly pestering him my parents some how have managed to do a re-scan,??how they new how to do this i dont know,,,anyway its been done and they have told me on the phone that they have got x amount of channels,but cant view them,Is this box like the Digivox as i know how to wipe it clean and do a new auto scan and then reset the emulator,it sounds to me this might be the same sort of procedure that needs to be done with there Dream Box ,if so could you help me by a simple example how to view the channels again,

    Many Thanks

        as long as the box was working and had all the correct working bits in it ,a new scan wouldnt stop them working only if they have done a factory reset will this happen ,do they have any fta channles at all ? like bbc1 or itv?and as wilf says you have to wait for the cam to start working

                it seems the reason you cannot see any channels exept fta it seems as if they done a factory reset prior to rescan and removed the magic files. they need putting back on simple as m8

                      nothing is ever easy when it comes to dreamboxes. Why don't try the first sticky in RED and see how get on?

                          it'll be something daft - it always is.

                          the tricky bit is installing the CAM properly (location, permissions), making sure the correct files are in place (keylist, folder, etc) and then making sure the CAM starts.

                          if u get FTA channels, there's no reason why it shouldn't work 100%

                            I always download the cam through the download menu rather worry about copying each of the files to their correct folders and permissions.
