Yes you are right HB13DISH. Although I posted that reply I decided to have a try with a direct connection. I used my laptop to try and connect directly to DM but with no success. Now its either I did not connect the two properly or else there is a problem.
What I cannot understand is why is it that I get all the layout of the enigma web interface uploaded to my PC but then it stops short of displaying the channel list. As I understand it, if I am getting the web IF displayed and also the current channel on which the DM is tuned is displayed in the top portion of the screen, it means that I am connected to DM right?
Well I am lost and dont know what else to try. Perhaps I am doomed not to use the web interface
