    Adding sats

    Is there anyway i can manually add 9 east to my Dreambox 600pvr and then scan it for programs?, it is not listed on the pre programmed sats. if so a step by step guide would be very welcome.

    Thanks a million

    The satellites are stored in the satellites.xml file.

    On the DM500 it's stored in /share/tuxbox but it will be somewhere else on teh DM600, maybe /etc/tuxbox.

    Edit it on your PC with a unix editor (I use UltraEdit) and add your satellite.

    You might not be able to copy it back to /etc/tuxbox as it might be read-only and I'm not sure where it will go as I've not got a DM600 so hopefully one of the other guys will confirm that for me.

        You could try adding the sat manually by doing

        press menu
        setup
        sat config
        highlight 10.0W and press the red button to erase it
        press the yellow button, a new box will appear at the bottom with a random satellite in it
        press ok
        scroll down to 9.0W
        press ok
        press green to save
        press exit
        go down to auto transponder scan
        press ok
        now in the list you should have 9.0W, highlight it and press ok
        wait for a transponder lock
        press green to scan
