    adding new tuner to dreambox

    So finally going to get a dvb-c tuner to replace my dvb-s2 in my DM800 clone, I assume as long as I flash a cable image I should be fine?

    Also could do with a PM pointing me in the right direction with a couple of things, been on sat for the past few years and am a bit out of touch.

    I'm a techie and been messing with paytv since the VDR days but now I got a family now time for tinkering, so its more how do I get a certain ........ which I know cant be discussed here as my current provider does not have.

    Many thanks

    You can use any image you prefer there are no so called Cable only or satellite only images an Image is exactly that an Image or the Receivers operating system what is different is for satellite you have a sat.xml file that holds all the details of Transponder/Channel data and the same for Cable you just insert a cable.xml file to scan for cable Frequency/Channels.

    The last part you are quite correct this cannot be discussed on the open forum someone may be able to guide you through PM

          You need cable bouquets to organise them for your area
