That would of course be assuming that your dreambox had a usb port for plugging in a USB stick.

and indeed it does as its a dm800s, any tutorials on this?

found this see if it works

first:

1- go to main menu/blue panel/devices manager/ then press initialize (green) then exit

2- press PVR then press again pvr /press menu / then switch to filelist then select usb from list and press green that's all

what do you want to record to usb or just store movies on the usb stick

[Wingnut]

What size is it and have you formatted the usb stick in the dm800

[Wingnut]

Hi mate, its a 4 gb usb stick,when u say format it in the dm800 I'm not sure if iv done that, how do u do that, well I made a backup of my image on my usb stick and I think the dm formatted it for me to make the backup,maybe I'm wrong mate, so how do I format it and thanks for reply
