Yes. Install the Gbox files on you dreambox and discard the Sky receiver

Unfortunatly, i started reading the instructions for the gbox... and my head exploded!!
i dont follow it all really.... sounds too complicated, as well as the fact i dont have all the equipment needed.

untill the make a proper softcam, all stick to my sky digi box..... at least that way i get to use the neat TVguide :)

It is much more simple than the impression one gets from the instructions. It really boils down to adding 3 or 4 files to the var/keys folder. You edit one of these by changing the 3 occurances of an ip address to your dreambox ip address. You edit the other by pasting the string created by the NDS generator over the data already there. The third is ok as is.
A last file "smartcam.config" is added to the var/etc folder.

Out of curiosity, In gbox v1.35 when they mention softcam.cfg are they refering to the softcam.key file.

i.e Copy the following files gbox_cfg and softcam.cfg to /var/keys edit the gbox_cfg inserting the IP address of our Dreambox in place of that one already present.

I cannot see this file anywhere?

[No there is a softcam.cfg file. I don't know if I am allowed to point you to the website I got it from. All I can say is do a google for forums and dowload a couple of compressed files. You should find it in at least one. I found mine in a tmp folder.

Actually you can do it with newcamd now. I will try it tonight.

Now THAT's what we were waiting for.... reverse engineering the engineering reversal... :D

Now we are guaranteed further development and all the original forbidden chat has less significance.

Plus it's a doddle to install on ANY image.

you can do it with any sky sub , sky freesat works great, the instructions for gbox are easy and are posted elsewhere on this forum.

Will it work with ftv card inserted directly into the Dream Card slot or is a Smartmouse still needed needed?

Thanks buddy,

I found one in another emu, I will try that. What puzzling me now is that it says to 'edit smartcam.config in the var/etc folder', this being hydra. I cannot see this file either in hydra poseidon maybe its in another version?

Would be nice to get a How To up and running on this subject. Just look at the views and is only running a couple of weeks.

I believe that the S*Y UK system sends 'keep alive' messages to cards.

When I moved houses, and had my system disconnected for 2 weeks, it would not work again until I plugged the decoder back into the phone line to re-activate the card.

I too am keen to use my S*Y card in my dreambox so that I have one less bit of kit under the telly, however, will it work for more than a few weeks, or will I have to keep putting the card back into the S*Y box to re-activate it.

Regards,

Jack

The phone line is not essential, but you do need to keep the card in an active receiver to keep it "alive"

like i said earlier though, the only problem with having sky through the dreambox is the loss of the TV guide that a sky digi box has, for me its one of the best features.

how many people sit down, press TV Guide button and browse through the channels to find whats on, and whats coming on, or even adding it to there personal planner/reminder?

without that, sky would be only half as good IMHO.

I can confirm it works with S*y UK card in Newcamd with 2 extra files installed. You need to add youe boxid no (seriel no) to the carderv.cfg file. ;)

Works in card slot!

Hi Chuckles,
Have you got an MD5 or size/date of the new(er) files - I could only find a newer newcamd in some sites of "unknown quality", most others seem to have deleted it already?
Just wanted to check before loading in a possible trojan...!
