Upload mgcamd from the dbox fix to var/bin. Change the file attributes for mgcamd to 755 via your ftp client. Upload the other 3 files to var/keys. Enable mgcamd in the cam menu.

Would Anyone be able to tell me the on screen prcedure to flash the dreambox 500 with an image ( the new fix )using flash fxp,connecting via the router, it wont connect using a null modem and dreamup, nothing happens after it says "switch on box" .
The box is working with a DW2.0 image when connected to TV , i need to install the new DK image.
I can drag and drop the new files(HYPERCAM 1.06) with FLASHFXP,but it wont work with the current image.

Press ok instead of red button and then execute see if that helps. Restart after each attempt of executing it though as if you do it twice it won't work till you power off.

Here is a new flashready image for the dreambox 500c for Ireland:

http://rapidshare.com/files/252302566/Irish_Backup.rar

Download image file and unzip using winrar: http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar380.exe - rename image file to "backup.img".

Flash image file to dreambox, I use Dreamup: http://www.dreamboxshops.co.uk/dreambox/DreamUP.zip - and null modem connection. If you do not have one you will need to buy a null modem connection.

When it says do you want to flash erase click no.

reboot the dreambox and search for all your channels using Dublin NTL.

Press blue button on remote, to go to Tuxbox Commander.

Select var folder
select the bin folder
hightlight hypercam 1.06.

Press red button to execute,
press exit
press red button to SAVE settings and exit.

Tune to Sky Sports or Sky Movies and wait a minute or two, then change channel again.
All channels should now be available.

PLEASE NOTE: if you execute the hypercam more than once it will not work. Also when you plug the dreambox out all channels will be gone but you just have to execute the cam again

Many thanks to those concerned.
I carried this out to a t but when its successfully flashed I cannot use remote to controll it Only way Icould is if I momentarily disconnect power That disconnects cam Any ideas would be very helpful
