      hi ,i bought 1 of these for my spare room,its a better version of the old dm500s,it looks very smart ,similar to the dm600,its supposed to have a better tuner but when i installed the darkstar2 image on it,it wouldnt pick up eurobird 28.2. I only wanted it for sly uk so i installed the pli jade3 maxvar image on it and it works perfect.its a nice and cheap option and does the job

        why does it not let me send the sly uk bouquets via dreamedit ?
        it seems to be sending it ok when i restart the machine it is not there

              For me its the exact same box , except this one has an off/on switch on the back,

              and after you send your bouquets via dreambox edit you have to click on the
              *Reload Settings On Dreambox* Button
              should work after that
