So the dbox wont work or do I need another piece of equipment. Sounds like a bit of hassle and as some may have read before I am not the most technologically minded individual. Thanks to all for previous advice and any further help with this.

If you get chorus mmds you need a box with dvb-t tuner.
True cable is using dvb-c and the cable boxes are not functional with chorus mmds.

I know they changed the frequency as this happened on the starview box and a factory default and rescan sorted it. Where do I get the latest cables file?

HELP!!!
I was wondering if someone could Please help me?
I think i have messed up my dbox2 by trying to record to a laptop
I used the below guide and followed the all steps and now when i rebooted my dbox the it does nothing and LCD starts to boot up as normal the just stays at blank blue lCD and i'm unable to access through flashFXP
the only problem i encountered was when i was doing "Recording Settings" and the guide said "4. Select "Default Recording Directory" and select "mnt/movies"" I could not find mnt/movies only the mnt/ but i think i may have deleted this directory by pressing a wrong button as it did not state what button did what.
can someone please tell me if this is recoverable or has had a similar problem?
Or even if not fixable by instructions does anyone do repairs dublin based or close, i'm willing to pay of course!
i'm desparate :( if someone can get in touch would be great
Thanks
"Recording Direct to your PC
Ok here is where things get a little more complicated. I only advise doing this if you are really
comfortable with flashing/scanning etc as there have been problems in the past lol
Mounting your Harddrive so that your Dbox can see it
1. Make sure your computer is set to the settings given in "First things first, Setting up the PC so
that its ready to communicate with the Dbox"
2. Make sure your username on the pc has a password on it. If not then create one by going into
control panel, user accounts, select your username then create a password.
3. Create a folder in your C: drive named "Dbox" then folders inside it called "Movies", "MP3" and
"Pics"
4. Right click on each of the folders, including the "Dbox" one, then select "Sharing and Security"
5. Tick "Share this folder on the Network" and "Allow network users to change my files" then click
"Ok"
6. Press "Dbox" on your remote.
7. Select "Settings"
8. Select "Network Settings"
9. Scroll to "Mount Network Volume"
10. Select the fist NFS:
11. Change "Type" to CIFS
12. Change "Server IP" to 192.168.0.101
13. Change "Directory Share" to "Dbox"
14. Change "local Directory" to /mnt
15. Mount on startup is optional
16. Mount Options are to be set to rw,soft,udp
17. Username is your windows username and password is the windows password
18. Select Mount Now.
Recording Settings
1. Press Dbox then "Settings" then "Recording"
2. Scroll "Recording device" until it says "Direct(file)"
3. Select "Direct Recording Settings"
4. Select "Default Recording Directory" and select "mnt/movies"
5. Set Max File size to 4096
6. Set No. of Ringbuffers to 20
7. Set all other options to off with the exception of "record all Audio PID's" and "Long
Filename....." Which should be set to "on"
8. Go back then select "Save/Activate Changes"
9. Go back again then go to Miscellaneous
28. Set "Load SPTS at boot" to "on"
29. Go back then save again
Now the Box is set to record to your computer, its time to sort out playback.
1. Press "Dbox"
2. Select "Movie Player"
3. Select "Settings"
4. Set "Streaming Server" to "On"
5. Set "Streaming Server IP" to 192.168.0.101
6. Set "Directory(VLC)" to C:/Dbox/Movies
7. Set "Default Directory" to /mnt/movies
8. Go back then into the "Settings" menu then select "Save" "

A eurovox is not working for chorus mmds.
You need a box with a dvb-t tuner. Dream 500-t or dream 600 with dvb-t tuner or dream 7025 with dvb-t tuner.

Hey Guys,
I'm having trouble getting SKY1 and some other stations in Cork. Using Nokia DBOX2 with Sportster image. Would anyone have a Services, Bouquet and Cable.xml for the cork area? It's cable I'm using not MMDS. The box is finding 106 station in total including radio stations when it scans, 79 of the 106 are TV stations.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hey again guys,
I was hoping someone might be able to help me out here. I have a DBOX 2 with a Sportster image on it. I'm having a small bit of trouble at the moment with it. After i turn on the box everything is fine but after a few mins the picture switches to black and white, sometime if left alone long enough the colour will come back again otherwise i have to reestart the DBox to fix it. It's really getting on my nerves to be honest.
If anyone could offer any advice it would be greatly appreciated!
Regards
B

dbox button -> video.
Try plain CVBS if your TV has problems with RGB.

Thanks for the reply. I've actually tried that already but had no luck. It works away for a small while but then switches over all of a sudden.
Any other ideas as to what it might be? would a reflas of the box help?
Cheers again!
