    Newbie 1st Post

    Hey,

    Great source of info here. Not that long bought first linux based sat box.

    Tried two images up until now, Nabilosat Darkstar 2 and Pli Jade.

    Gave up on Darkstar 2, last coupld of days, not been able to access any downloads, I have done before. There site doesn't look right just now either.

    Pli jade, quite liked, nice features, but Nabilosat was easier to use.

    Going to download the no bomb gemini image, seems like it was the most popular until the bomb image came out.

    What do people think. Should I try it, or should I stick with the others?

      Are you aware of any issues with Nabilosat, like I said there website is not right from what I can see. Normally the download menu is filled, but was empty yest, thats why I tried, PLi.

          Nice one westkill.

          Good to see I'm thinking along the right lines with this.

          What image for a DM500s would you recommend from experience?

              i would probally do what opsmonkey says
              there is a newer no bomb gemini image
              which works on my openmedia stb which is like a clone ,i think the image reads the mac address which ~~~~s the box up i think
              but others have used it and worked , but thats up to you if you try it

                Ok, re-flashed the box with an old gemini 4.40 image. Working fine, full list of channels on 19.2. Networked, so got it online.

                Attempting to ftp files onto box, again no problem, but not quite got the outcome I was expecting.

                With Cam's, I know to re-start after ftp and installation etc.

                Still not the outcome I was expecting. Any little things with Cam's that I am missing?

                    I am expecting to get a TNT card to clear, using softcam rather than viaccess cam.

                    Looks like I need to keep on reading.
