    Flashing D500 with Flash wizard

    Downloaded the Gemini 4.6 with no bomb for D500 from downloads.

    Opened up flash wizard and noticed that the image is a fw2 file an not nfi

    Can I still use it in Flash wizard to flash the box ?

    What file types can flash wizard use ?

    Thx

    IMHO, never never use flash wizard to flash Gemini on or off your 500s, flash wizards fine for drakstar2 but i.v had 3 box's with GP and all crashed when using fw ,

            .nfi images are not used on dm500/dm600 only on boxes such as dm7020 /dm800 etc.
            i love it when a dreambox comes together.

                like i said iv flashed 3 boxs and all 3 crashed 4.70 no bomb version iirc.
                but you have flashed hundreds of them and never had a issue, thats a lot of box`s well done, don't make either of us wrong, just have had different experiences

                p.s piopat is always right

                      Does anyone know how I find CCcam in Pli Jade 3 for D500.

                      I want to download CCcam 214 but the blue button menu is different to Gemini.

                      I can see a softcam menu but nothing for downloading or even selecting CCcam.

                      Stumped!
