Got the box yesterday, Installed DK1 everything perfect on cable side, I am installing a new dish this weekend then I will have a go on sat side as well.


Do I need to turn the powersupply from mains before switching cable/sat?

thanks

[Devilfish]

Yes, you need to power down before switching.

Just managed to link sat side with a sly minidish on 9E got some channels perfectly(only a minidish).Does anyone got a channel list of 9E so I can upload into my box.
Thanks

Look out folks...there's a new receiver on the way!

Combined cable and satellite tuners in the one neat little package.

Keep an eye out...more to follow!

Hi,
Will this take the same image as the dream box?
Thanks

Hi all,

Been looking through this post for a while and am interested in getting this box for my sis who has a cable and sky feed available. Am new to the whole seen and recently got a 500C clone myself and got it all up and running successfully using the tutorials.

The only area I'm a complete novice is on the sat side of things.

She has a standard s*y sat dish at the moment with S*y plus (2 cables/feed downstairs for the S*y plus box and 1 cable/feed upstairs for a normal s*ky box).

What motorised dish would you suggest and is it something I could install/fine tune myself ?

Which tutorials would you suggest I use to get going ?

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

using dbox2 images

No More pm's please

I have set up an ebay page for this if any body has any questions plz post here on this forum

Ebay Page :-

OpenMedia Cable / Satellite Receiver like Eurovox, Dbox on eBay, also, Cable Boxes, Satellite Cable Freeview, Consumer Electronics (end time 21-Jun-08 01:32:55 BST)

Comes pre-installed with a FTA Neutrino Image (thanks to Cryo for all his time and hard work )

Enigma image to follow shortly (or even better you can use the DK v1 image thats in the downloads section)

after reading the posts in this thread and finding out that you cannot use dbox2 images i noticed this at the top of the ebay page:


OpenMedia Cable / Satellite Receiver like Eurovox, Dbox
2 box's in 1 / Runs on a Nokia Dbox 2 Image, Read Ad...

just thought you should know in case you want to edit it to avoid confusion

convert dbox services to openmedia services

you can copy across the files in you keys and scce folder.

for your services and boquets you need to copy them to the tmp folder of the openmedia then goto blue button / extras menu / convert dbox services to openmeidia services

this will convert your existing dbox channel line up into your openmedia / dreambox.

hi, i'm using the dk_v1.1 image and have transferred my services and boquet files from my dbox into the temp folder but when i press the blue button and then the extras menu i dont see the "convert dbox services to openmedia services" option. has anyone managed to do this

[max_gee]

this option is part of the neutrino based image that came preinstalled on the open media receiver.

it is also available to downlad in the openedia section of the forums

[cbbella]

do you know if its possible to do and how it can be done with the dk_v1.1 image

The openmedia box is a Dreambox clone so everything that works for the dreambox on this box. There are so many stickies/guides on the forum , why not read them and then ask the questions.
