    Dreambox Kaputt Poll

    Had mine for years, I think since 04 My Orange screened 7000 has refused to power up this morning, maybe its gone on strike? I removed the lid to have a look I cant see any fuses, and power is getting to the connector on the main board. As it was an early one I powered the drive from a separate...

    Dreambox without a PC, is it possible, whats happened??

    Just like to say I have now been running my Dreambox now for a couple of weeks with no problems and all updating fine just from the remote. Excellent news, no need to hook it up to a pc or ftp'ing other than initial xml file copy over. So for all those who just want to use a dreambox for...

    Dreambox without a PC, is it possible, whats happened??

    Thanks, I will try Gemini 4. I only used 3.6 as it was specified by the site providing the softcam k*y updater. Basically you change the useraddon.xml file to one they provide then in the blue button plugin menu you get the option to download from there site straight into the box. Ironically...

    Dreambox without a PC, is it possible, whats happened??

    Ok,:-worship thanks for that.:confused: To explain, we have a remote location we want to use the dreambox in, by use I mean to actually watch films on etc. The remote location has an internet connection but no PC facility. So we configure it at base (home) then go onsite and install in remote...

    Dreambox without a PC, is it possible, whats happened??

    Just heard that the Gemini 3.6 version can be hooked up to something like Luxsat with a change to the user.xml file. Does this mean we are back where we were in 2005? with a Dreambox that can point to a single server and get all it needs to be updated via the web/remote but without the need for...

    Dreambox without a PC, is it possible, whats happened??

    It is a shame, but at least I got a good couple of years out of it with MultiV etc so not complaining. Yep could sort a laptop, but after my last dismal effort at getting it working failed not over confident I would be anymore successful now. Just would have liked some movies over the Holidays...

    Dreambox without a PC, is it possible, whats happened??

    Just revisited to see if anything has improved over the last few months. Any sign on an image thats completely updatable from an internet connected DB. Plugins Emus and Keys like Hydra used to be. (In case you wonder why I still ask I don't have a PC at the location of the DB even though I...

    Dreambox without a PC, is it possible, whats happened??

    Thanks Rolf, I have ftp'd the "Dreambox K*ys 26.08.2006 b.zip" from sat-key.info in the /Var dirs as suggested, but still not much happening, I noticed Autoroll & Autoupdate were in there, but assume something must be changed somewhere else to activate them? Once activated, if left on the net...
