    Did'nt know there was an option to download DESSERTDOG, seriously though you have to wait approx 30 mins after your 1st post before you can d/l

        I would'nt have "wated a days elave" this can be done in a 10 minute teabreak, once you've got the firmware & tut,
        Good luck and happy viewing (Long may it last)

          thanks
          i have downloaded teh file of desert dog and it is just instructions, do you know wher i get the firmware download? ( apologies, i am a girl )

          instruction of desert dog are;
          Plug in the box and connect the cables
          2.Format a usb stick in pc to fat32
          3
          .Copy the firmware onto the stick via the PC.
          4 Switch your box off
          completely and insert the usb in the rear socket.
          5.Switch on
          the box wait for it to boot up.
          6.Press menu and scroll to usb press ok

          7.The firmware
          should start to transfer from the usb to the box.
          8.Once this has done hit menu and key in 1570
          with the remote.
          this will bring up the secret menu hi light
          keycode and change it to on
          .
          9.You should now be set to scan go into menu and select installation,choose automatic scan press ok then choose your provider
          hit ok again.
          You should now get all channels your after.
          If by any chance you dont get the channels try a different provider.

                      If you follow the tut step by step you won't have a problem, best to format usb stick in pc (much quicker) don't forget to turn the box off before putting in/taking out the usb.

                          You only have to drag the file & drop into your usb, no need to open the file
