    5620 not put out to pasture just yet!

    Hello guys, It's good to read nice things about the good old 5620. Mine died two years ago, a big spark killed the flash. Now I am thinking about replacing the motherboard and bringing it back to life. It would be a second tuner with the 800. The only flaw of the 5620 is the bad sensitivity for...

    NFS servers and multiboot on 5620

    Hi, I must bring back this topic again. After a while I wanted to try multiboot again and now the new Geminis support it. At least FlashwizardPro could install an image in multiboot, but this image couldn't start then. I was waiting for 12 minutes and nothing happened, I could see ---- on the...

    BBC Prime Dreambox problems....maaad

    Guys, The main problem is not the bad tuner. I have tried some old images based on cvs 106 and all worked with strong low symbolrate channels. The lowest SR was below 3000ksym/sec on Eutelsat W2 16E, called Alsat TV 10957 H, SR:2821, FEC:2/3. We should tell the developers to consider putting...

    DM5620 sensitivity

    Don't you know - by chance - the capacitor values? I've already bought two 2200mikroF/16V capacitors, 'cause I think the original ones (same capacitance but for 10V) died for some reasons. I intend to replace them. If I succeed I will tell you (maybe in Hungarian :)) Paul_HU

    BBC Prime Dreambox problems....maaad

    Hi T_G, This BBC Prime is in the TPS package. There are rumors that TPS changes to Via 2.6 on March 10th. Bye-bye TPS. I also have quality problems with the low symbolrate channel. DreamMultimedia told me the sensitivity problem of DM 5620 could not be repaired. Regards Paul_HU

    DM5620 sensitivity

    Hi everyone, Has someone ever experienced that DM5620 can't receive low symbolrate channels (below 5000-8000)? I read some posts about the capacitor problem of DM 5620 in the sat-industry forum. The replacement of two electrolytic capacitors improved the tuner sensitivity. I would appreciate...

    VLC plugin

    Thanks a lot! I will try the method. Though it would be nice to have a small program in the Dreambox which can convert AC3 to analog stereo. Regards Paul_HU

    VLC plugin

    Hi Guys, I need some help with playing back movies on TV with the Dreambox from PC. I just installed VLC and Mediaplayer plugins on my DM 5620. VLC is also running on my PC. Still I'm not able to send the stream to the Dreambox. CIFS works fine so it is not a network problem. I also changed the...

    NFS servers and multiboot on 5620

    Hi PCD, Thanks for the info! I will try your setup. Are you satisfied with pli? I didn't like it very much. I have tried several images (all 3 Hydras, IHAD, Neutrino /that's very complicated!/, rudream, Jupiter, SF, Pli, DBF) but Gemini is the most stable one. Regards Paul_HU

    NFS servers and multiboot on 5620

    Hello again, I have news of the multiboot trials. I changed the user to Administrator, Flashwizard could send the image but it stopped while installing with a simple error message. I tried FW 5.0, 5.2, 6RC1 and 7020beta. Then I flashed Hydra Phoenix and tried the multiboot with it. FW now could...

    NFS servers and multiboot on 5620

    I have no firewall (original XP Prof, no SP2). I don't use this for the internet. Thanks for the idea anyway.

    NFS servers and multiboot on 5620

    Hi, I tried what you suggested. First I turned on my PC. NFS server was running. When I turned on my box again it said: "mounting NFS" then "NFS not found" and proceeded booting. Though it wasn't thinking for too long to change to "NFS not found" message. Flashwizard connects, it recognizes the...
