Don't shoot me if I'm wrong as I'm not a dreamer but at work I have to use a chmod command since the files have been edited so do a search for that and you'll probably find the numbers to go with it. Hope this helps

I'm sorry I did try, I thought it was a case of attributes and that is what you were changing with the chmod 775 whatever. In the days of DOS if a file was read only or hidden you could change that from command line and then you could find and edit them, I just assumed that is what chmod allowed you to do sorry I'm off to bedU-zzz

maybe it depends with which software you connect to dreambox?

I use DCC (Dreambox Control Center), which has integrated FTP, editor, change attributes for files.... (and a lot of other functionalities)

The user ("root", pwd "dreambox") preconfigured on dreambox has all rights to write on file system...

Try searching google for FOSI download and use the FTP program you find. One of the best their is. And easy to use.

so i can click a button on my remote and it caps to my remote nfs harddrive :) without setting timers or going to my pc :) and without use of any program like ngrab :p.

If it works well i might do some serious modding of the hydra image and release it for you guys.

Im thinking of adding lots of cool features :p

That sounds like a good idea, even though I must admit I would prefer a plugin or something to work on any image if possible. (I use Gemini).
Let us know how it went, I can see an entry in the idiot guide coming up :-)

I was referring to the serious modification of the Hydra. If you do a plugin it could be used for all Images?
