    Hi'ya Jimme, I know it's mgb that put all the brain power into the ch0rus setup. While I'm familiar with most of the cable boxes, I haven't yet had a dreambox to mess about with, I'm not all that familiar with linux either, Biggest problem has been finding the image that I need, and a terrestrial.xml for it too, I'm sure once I can get the right files that I need, I'll be able to figure it out.
    Cheers, Thanks.

    Thanks for the link MGB17. Had tried to download the driver from here but when i extract them they just appear as a number of sys files rather than a program which allows me to run the dvb-t stick? Any ideas what i'm doing wrong?

    You have to point to the uncrompressed files during the vista driver installation procedure via device manager.

    Make sure you have chorus mmds cause that box is for mmds chorus only. you can flash the box using dream up with Digital Worldz 2.1 (latest update for autoroll) and that will have evo camd for decoding channels and all the required mmds area scan is on it.

    how long do you have the 500T unless its an orginal which i doubt it is as they stopped making them a while back you will be missing some of the channels do to a weak spot on the tunner

    digitalworldz is the firmware,and if you cancel the subscription they take away the power supply for the aerial so you will need to pick 1 up,if you flash the dw image via dream up make sure you say NO to flash erase
