Now looking seriously at a Dreambox 500T clone from one of Jimme's links to dreamboxmagic. Very reasonable and seems to solve the problem of Ch0rus MMDS issues in Kilkenny. They only sell the hardware though so I will need to flash a correct image etc.. for Kilkenny. Anyone got any ideas of where to get this? If I flash the image, can I then just run a service scan to pick up channels or will I need more software? Thanks!

Try another blade, there are around 10 versions out there by now. try IFA and FTP methods too.

frist of all make sure youre not mmds as the 500C is no good on mmds you need either a 500t or 600t if mmds,you need to put an image on the box my prefered image is digital worldz 2.0 you can get it here it has everything you need in the image keys, cams and the irish cables files,just use dream up to flash it and away you go

Load the cables.xml file that is around here somewhere and that will let you select chorus for the scan....Hope this helps.

I have uploaded the file for you here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/71788882/irish10.zip.html

Place the cables.xml file in var/tuxbox/config/zapit.Delete scan.cfg if there also.Plug out box and then plug in again....

Hi,
I have a Sagem with Commando 8.2 image. I haven't used it in a while but this morning when I used it all of the channels are freezing. They are all there but when you select a channel the picture freezes and might move every 5 seconds or so.

Has something happened recently that I missed or don't know about? Is there an update or something else I need to do to resolve this?

Cheers,
Paul

HI

I am having a couple of problems i was hoping someone could help me with.

I flashed blade onto my box but i cant seem to get access to any of the folders using ftp software or windows explorer. do i need to change some setting to view/read/write files.

because of the ptoblem i cant seem to upload the files (cables keys etc) so i decided to revert back to my backed-up image.

but now the image flashingassistent wont flash the old imgage.

it keeps stalling during the flash with the below in the command box

Input: serial
Output: serial

Select (1-3), other keys to stop autoboot: 0

can anyone help. im stuck with a box i cant seem to do anything with. i am willing to give blade a shot but i cant seem to get the files over

Hi all. I?ve recently set-up a dreambox to pick-up Ch0ru$ MMDS. While it wasn?t too straight forward I received great advice from some of you guys on this forum which made it very worthwhile. So I?m back with a few more questions!

I?m now planning to set up a box for my brother. He has a ch0ru$ coaxial cable which feeds into his house, but it has not been used since the old analogue black boxes were around. As he doesn?t have a subscription from ch0ru$ will they know if he is tapping into their signal (i.e. does he need to subscribe to a basic package to get away with it)? Also, what is the most reliable box for ch0ru$ (cable) in the Cork area?


Hi I'm Thinking of getting a dream box 500c will it work with cable ntl/chorus in Ireland

yeah its on PPV. Should be able to get it on the dbox. i think it would be the same channel that was showing the wrestling PPV not too long ago.

Might also be on the now redundant prem plus channel
