hi, thanks for the replys on this, very gratefull. I agree the 7025 does run hot and that it is not the best condition for a hard drive. Mine is a maxtor 300g. But i dont think the heat is the root cause of my problem. I have let the dreambox off and ran it cold, after boot up and after idle...

hi, my dreambox 7025 has been running a treat without probs for ages now. Am runing the latest gemini image, and have a maxtor 300g drive. As of late have a problem where if the hard drive is activated (if i wanna view my movie list or record) it will crash the box and wont respond. Its...

*0hi, ok guys, got this one working....using as stated above cccam 1.3.1/newcs-1.18.. edit the config file with your box number and away you go!! works pretty much like sky plus, even when using pic in pic....have my motorised dish in input 1, and fixed sky dish in input 2. Seems like i am...

hi, been using the latest gemini image, works fine. a new image Colosseum v1.1 is out, just wondering if anyone has tried it, gonna give it a try weekend, but just thought there might be a bit of feedback on this out there. cheers:)

hi, this is strange. Have noticed that if i touch the outside housing of the f connectors which screw into the back of the v box the channels are spot on, if i remove my hand they go dodgy again.?? all i can think of is that by touching tham i am some how earthing them? Anyone with a bit more...

mel714 have replied to your pm.:) also; d4ftpunk, have tried replying to your pm but your box is full :-DOH! :)

hi, Im an owner of the 7025 and 7020. Started the 7025 off as a toy really, but has slowly took over the 7020 and is my main box now. The 7020 is gathering dust. It has a few obvious problems due to lack of software etc, but that is slowly coming now. For what i use it for its totally spot on...

hi, have mounted this about 6 inches from lnb just to see if it worked. Altough the signal levels do seem slightly higher its still the same:( , certain channels like the free to air thai channel, have lower signal levels but they fine...?? I would invest in a new v box if i thought it was...

hi, this is my second lnb, brought a 0.2db twin one so i guess it should be ok. so i basically insert it in circuit as close to the lnb as possible:) up by the dish end then? Think i get what your saying now about the amplification of the signal:-DOH! live and learn hey. As we are having such...

hi, fitted the amplifier but still the same:confused: . i put it between the reciever and v box. Is this where it should be? Although my signal is showing snr = 92 ish and Acg = 89 ish, and ber=0, so the signal should be ok? Seems strange how the v box somehow interfears with these channels...

hi, cheers rolfw for ten quidish its defo worth a try. will let you know how i get on. nice one:)

hi rolfw, its about 35metres give or take. The dish is mounted on a pole at the bottom of garden. If it is loss due to the v box how do you think the best way to overcome this? cheers

hi, any help on this would be great. I had a 7020 dreambox before working on disque2 . I found that certain channels were a bit dodgy, as if not tuned in. Could not figure it out so i lived with it. Recently bought a 7025 and ran another cable for dual lnb. After hours of messing around (missis...
