All the interactive streams should be available. They appear as just another set of channels on non SKy digiboxes - theres about a dozen of them.

No - the interactive menu is a function of the Sky digibox.

Scan the frequency which downloads the data channels in question. Once they are in your dreambox then use Dreamboxedit settings editor and FTP your channel list to PC.

Then select the data services and convert them to TV services using the right-click context menu.

This would enable you to view those data channels using TV Mode on Dreambox.

From memory, the BBCi channels that you need to convert from "data" to "TV" are the ones called "stream0" to "stream7".
This is where the Wimbledon interactive channels were anyway.

I find T4 STRM-0 and T4 STRM-1, with a grid of 6 channels each. Is it what I'm looking for? How come I can't find streams 3 to 7?? I've tried to change all the BSKYb data channels to "tv", but to no avail. Since I live in Brussels and have never seen what BBCi looks like, could you be more specific? Thanks in advance.

Yes, that is two of the channels. I'm not at home atm to give you the exact details of the others.

According to Lyngsat BBCi 1 to 7 is on 12441V 27500 2/3 but also try 10773H, 10803H and 10847V all 22000 5/6

If they are transmitting they just look any other channel. If they are not transmitting they ususally have a test card and a voice describing the audio channel.
Sometimes they are just empty.

Thank you for that quick anwer. I found stream-1, stream-2 ... up to stream-6
The only one that works now is stream-6 that shows photographs. I wonder if these channels would have allowed me to see other Wimbledon matches.
I would be very glad if you could give me the exact names of the ones I'm still missing.
Regards from Brussels.

Yes, this is where the "other" Wimbledon matches were shown.
I think you already have all the channels. Chances are they are empty atm. They are not in use all the time.
