Hi, I just got around to installing a HDD in my DM800. Had to reflash my image (GP3) as I couldn't get the drive to mount. Anyway, after reflashing it mounted and initialised fine. Programs record fine to Hdd/movies/. I can FTP the recorded transport streams to my PC and play them without...

Use DreamboxEdit to upload the channel files to your box.

Hey again, Got it sorted, finally. I wasn't selecting the right IP address in DreamUP. Didn't realise that the DM800 defaults to 192.168.1.10. I know you guys would have solved it for me anyway ;)

Hi again guys, I'm back with another self-inflicted problem! So I bought a DM800 clone (I know the risks of buying clones but its all i could afford). I've been image hopping trying to find one I like. Unfortunatley, the last image I flashed was the wrong one and I've wrecked the box! It was...

Thank you!

I'm afraid it was my own stupid fault. I had the bracket from on old 80cm, so I thought I'd try the td88 on it. Not the smartest idea I've ever had. Ah well, none of that matters now anyway, hopefully I'll get a proper install done soon. :-) On that note, can an admin please enable my PM...

Thanks Viper. I've posted in the install section for an installer. Won't hurt getting a quote anyway. I figure if Im getting it installed above the gutterline, I might as well just go for a 1.1m motorised. Although it would need to be well secured as it's pretty exposed up there :). Thanks again...

Hi, I'm looking for a couple of quotes for the following installs please. Both installs will require dish positioning above gutterline. 1) A 1.1m motorised dish setup. 2) A fixed dish multi-lnb setup to receive 19.2, 13e and 0.8w. Any questions for further information needed please ask. Thanks

Ah ok, thanks for the advice. Bit of a bummer lol. I'll maybe look into getting a set of T&Ks and an extra K with a scaffold pole for mounting above the gutter. Its a hell of a height to be working at and I don't really fancy it. Thanks anyway.

Even with T&K's with 24" standoff? That bracket has about 30cm I think, the T&Ks would be twice that.

I was under the impression that mounting higher than the gutterline was really only needed if I wanted to go motorised, as I could see my 0 position at south. I'm now putting up a fixed dish with multiple LNB's, although I wanted 0.8w, which now looks impossible, using that bracket anyway. I'm...

Forgot the picture, here it is.

Hey guys, Well I got the bracket up using a combination of a couple of suggestions. I bought a 9mm drill bits and hammered the nylon wall plugs in. Some of the plugs wouldn't go in, so I drilled the hole with a 10mm bit and stuck the plug in with some cable tie ends (which worked beautifully)...

Hi, You can check Dreams list of Official retailers on their website. I used satstore.co.uk (if referring to retailers isn't allowed, please remove and accept my apologies) to purchase my DM7025. All dreamboxes on that site are original. If you don't mind paying the very high price of...

Well, I drilled them about the length of the bolt, maybe a bit longer, which was much longer than the plug. Unless they need to be even longer than the bolt itself?
