    jondalar, understand, what exactly does a feed sat supply. answer is pictures. the card supplies the decryption. you do not (or would not want) a sat feed to your computer. whats the point of owning a 50 inch high def tv if you are going to connect it to a laptop.

    card will work in dm500 (without sat connection) without issue.

    Can any of you help me please? I am pulling my hair out trying to set up my DM800hd I have flashed the latest gemini2 image to the box done a scan got all my FTA channels
    the problem is I cannot seem to be able to sort out the cccam part of the set up. I have surfed for ages and all help guides I have read say go to addons (2) and install the cams but there is nothing there how do I get the latest 2.1.4 and how do I install it and set it up through ftp I am guessing but which folders etc??

    is there a newbies guide for the DM800?

    Any help appreciated.... thank you in advance..

    gemini no longer supports cam download. you need to search for cam on the net. then install it in /tmp and do a manual install

    Hi guys I got a new DM 800 hd clone today and my tv screen went green about 1 min after I switched it on I was just about to flash it so I carried on, I held down the power botton unplugged the power, pluged it again and noting it would not even boot, noting is showing on the oled screen in front the only sign of life is the yellow and green leds around the Ethernet port.

    I usually flash from browser but that's no going to work now question is can I flash the box with null cableand dream up, if anyone has experienced this before any advice thanks

    You can also flash a dm 800 with dream up and a network cable connected i find easier than a web browser..just open up dream up with null cable and then connect your network cable in dream up tick use network put in ip address of computer and in remote box put ip of dream box hit connect it will ask to turn on dream box and it will load flash loader and you will get box in network rather than serial mode the hit flash pick your image and it will take two mins or so..Or a null cable on its own takes nearly and hour so i would do this way if you are unsure
