only me !!!
more advice needed please....
i now have dreamworldz 1.6.5 thansk to everyone on this forum, i have added the cable.xml for dublin and lo and behold the channels are back and everything works fine, however ....
as soon as i unplug my laptop from the dreambox i loose the channels again. discovery turbo, living + 1, more 4 + 1 and i am sure a few more....
what am i doing wrong ? the xml file is uploading and actually saving on the dreambox, after the scan all is available, its only when i disconnect the laptop, its almost as if the box is recieving the channels from the internet throught the laptop.
any suggestions would be most gratefully recieved.
thaniks again to all who helped before and to all who sopend the time to read this.
cheers

on a channel that you are watching press blue then go into dream menu and try changing around the tunner options the old type works best for me and do a rescan,when you say you dont have these channels what comes up on screen when you go to watch it?

Cables.xml is for the dvb-c tuner and terrestrial.xml for the dvb-t tuner of a dreambox. Complete different.

when i originally upload the new .xml file i do a rescan on ntl ireland and get the channels fine.
then i disconnect, (unplug) the laptop and the channel disappears and the message comes up " this service is not available "
i didnt re connect the laptop and try again i did however try a rescan with the laptop disconnected and only got the same message.
i will try pressing the blue button and test different settings in there tonight,
what scan do you do with this new xml file ?
what settings do you use from the blue button ?
thanks

ok so......
tried messing with the tuner options after pressing the blue button on a channel.
it was on new so a rescan there made no difference.
i tried old as you said that works best for you but even after the rescan still got the "this service is not available" message
finally changed the tuner to alt. and did a rescan with the same results.
after initially uploading the cables.xml and scanning the channels all worked.
i only got the "this service is not available" message after i unplugged the laptop from the dreambox.....
what am i doing wrong ? or what is it i am not doing ?
i know its only 1 or 2 channels but its just the not being able to solve it factor thats killing me.
any suggestions gratefully received
thanks

the channels i know i cant recieve so far are
discovery turbo
living plus 1
more 4 plus 1
there is also 1 of the uk gold channels but im not sure which one right now, i am sure there are others too i am just not sure which ones.
just to clear something.
i got a new cable.xml file and when i upload that they work fine until i unplug the laptop. i know the xml file is saved because i checked. it must be something to do with the start up thats not finding this xml file.
i am not sure where to find or even what ber is... the signal is ok because they work before i unplug the laptop and all the other channels are fine. nt hell must have changed something for this group of channels only.
thanks again for your interest

<channel service_id="051c" name="Nick Replay" service_type="01" />
<channel service_id="051d" name="UKTV Gold +1" service_type="01" />
<channel service_id="051e" name="Zee TV" service_type="01" />
<channel service_id="0521" name="TVX" service_type="01" />

<channel service_id="03f2" name="Celtic TV" service_type="01" />
<channel service_id="03f3" name="Inactive Setanta Sports 1" service_type="01" />
<channel service_id="03f4" name="Setanta Sports 2" service_type="01" />
now on 394 and 402 frequencies. You might be able to edit your cables.xml file and add them in so it will scan for them.
None of my scans picked them up, I had to add them in. I also made a huge provider file with frequencies, 100, 100.5, 101.....999, 999.5 in it. This will take a few hours to scan but should get them all. The only problem is that it will check say 354.5, before 355, and if 354.5 works at all it will decide to pick it, even if the true broadcast frequency is 355. I had frequencies off by 0.5 before and the picture was jumpy. I dont know if there is a better way to make a cables.xml file, or some way to make sure it only accepts a channel if the signal is strong.

Hi wiz, having the same problem as padshea.I got your working files but when i transfer them to my dbox via ftp, it doesn't give me the option to change my cable provider.Im running sportser 1.75 image. Should they work with this image or should i load a different image ?

Hiya Wiz, thanks a million for your help... Unfortunately I'm still missing 80% of channels.
Would it be possible to share any other relevant files: cables.xml etc??
Thanks a lot

Hi Ruprect & Wiz... i manually tried to update the .xml file but guess didnt do it right or something as nothing happened...would it be asking too much if you could provide the cables.xml file that you have created which works.. as after many days at this still have not been successful.
thanks
