    Hi ya,

    I have been following this great post.

    But i am stuck...

    I have a Dreambox 500C, flashed to DW2 and have factory reset the unit.

    Current issue is that i can only watch the normal BBC/ITV etc channels and not any of the others, it is just blank... is that what is suppose to happen and we need to follow whats on this thread to fix it?

    I have tried to update the keys.. however, the keylist.txt keeps reseting when i reboot and putting in the C&W keys shown in the previous posts.. i am not sure what service i am running whether its NTeeL or ex C&W.. i am in London UK.

    what can i do to save the keylist so i can try them all?

    Go into tuxbox commander and turn off the AU. just change a 01 to 00 in this file located in Config files: /var/keys - camd_cfg

    Thanks,

    I assume you mean within the file, i change the 01 to 00 as shown?

    # Key update
    # 01 update only new keys, default setting
    # 02 update all keys (used for valid PMK checking)
    U: { 00 }

    Hi Sat,

    many thanks,

    Still no luck..

    The Keylist.txt is reseting to have no entries now.

    Any idea?

    also, i am running evocam 2.17c, should i be running this or should i turn this off in the blue button section??

    # AU
    # 00 is ignored (default)
    # 01 enable AU
    # 02 AU Auto
    A: { 00 }

    # Key update
    # 01 update only new keys, default setting
    # 02 update all keys (used for valid PMK checking)
    U: { 00 }

    Change AU to 00 - A: { 00 }

    so factory default, which i am doing right now..

    So i will check this config file: /var/keys - camd_cfg again

    Then put in the whatever key,

    then reboot and see what happens??

    Hope this works...

    ok tempory solution for chorus for people with internet.
    It is a plugin that you can download from this site
    http://rapidshare.com/files/105991287/plugins.rar.html
    The dreambox has to be connected to the internet.
    first unpack the files you have two files in plugins, ftp to your dreambox and put the files in to /var/tuxbox/plugins
    the two files only, no the directory.
    set atributes to 755 for both files.
    press in gemini the blue button, then plugins then Star/entavio key-file updater. wait done, exit.
    the dreampbox have to be connected to the internet and the in the communications setup the dhcp on.
    the script download and create a softcam.key for mgcamd and a keylist.txt for evocamd
    the script file is free so everybody can modify it.

    Thanks Sat...

    I have somehow managed to resolve it... i did all the things on this thread and somehow its worked ... the last thing i did was to reset this evocamd 2.12??

    What is this evocamd?
    What is Chorus? how do i tell what i have?

    So in a nut shell, if this doesn't work again? what are my steps?

    Factory default? Check Keylist.txt, check camd.cfg for AU and check this evocamd??? or is there an easier way?

    Hi another newbie here. Am looking for an image for a Dreambox 600 on Ch0ru$. I thought I had fecked mine up as after changing settings it wouldn't startup. So using dreamup I flashed it with different images and the only one I could get to work was one from dream multimedia. So I know my box is okay, its picking up all channels and clearing RT€ 1 & Sp.event$.
    Read here somewhere that enigma2 is best but can only find enigma which doesn't work.
    I'd be grateful if someone could send me this or other compatible image.
