      Dont extract the FOLDER, just extract the file (TP_PROG.abs) to your USG Stick.
      Then use the upload function on the openbox.

        Try this

        To avoid any possable conflicts, it is always wise to delete the channels from your receiver before installing.
        To remove all channels click Menu -> Edit Channel -> Delete All

        To install this channel list, simply transfer the unzipped channel list to a USB Stick, and then insert the USB Stick into the USB port, which is located on the rear of the receiver, then follow the instructions below.

        Click Menu -> Tools -> Upgrade By USB, then in 'Upgrade Mode' select 'Misc Files'
        then click on 'Select & Upgrade' and select OPTION 1 [TP_PROG] now click the OK button,
        when you see a check mark or tick next to the TP_PROG, click the yellow button to install.
        Once the file have been installed, reboot the receiver

          Make sure you have the correct file.
          I read a post which said it needs to be a .dbs file for s10 and .abs file for s9
          To change the extension of a file, make sure you have view file extensions enabled, by simply doing the following:

          1 .. Open a folder [any folder will do]

          2 .. Click the Organize tab button.

          3 .. Click the Folder & Search Options.

          4 .. Click the View tab button.

          5 .. Now make sure the [Hide Extensions for known file types] box is blank, ie, no tick displayed.

          6 .. Click apply and then close the folder.

          7 .. That's it, you should now be able to change a files extension by right clicking on the file and selecting the Rename option.

          this info is from a post by southpaw

            i found that my usb stick was no good, it identified it but wouldnt read from it, make sure its just the file you need on the usb (i used a hdd) then it loads up no bother.

              @jackpot, did you have any joy with that dumbo file? ive been trying to put it onto my s10, but it doesnt seem to work. i can flash the image onto the box no problem, but im not sure it works with an s10, its blanked my box twice now, no power, and ive had to reinstall the firmware and bootloader with a null modem, im thinking this is only for the s9, correct me if im wrong.
