All images for your sim type are compatible with a cable tuner. I prefer to use openATV 5.3 and then use flash expander to give you more space to install Autobouqets maker etc.
 
thanks mate let you know how it goes just waiting on tuner coming .
cheers.
 
hi had a look in downloads and cant find the image openATV 5.3 for sim 2.0.1 dm800hd nor flashexpander
any ideas
 
Im looking at changing my sat tuner for a cable one in a few weeks, how easy was it to change ?

That is an 800HD SE.

The 800 HD (without the SE at end of name, with DVI port, not HDMI) needs a complete backplate. Unless you want to do some drilling.

If you buy a cable tuner for the 800 HD, make sure you get the backplate too.
 
yes mate got it all sorted I think its against the rules to post the link where I got the tuner from its a well known chinesse site .
need any more info let me know as the members on here have helped me a great deal
cheers m8
 
thats cool about the link, i think i have a cable tuner from a website. was it just a case of plugging it in and scanning and you were set up?
 
as I said it was for my brother.
first thing we done was installed the cable tuner.
second we checked the bootloader of the box that was ssl82 so we updated the bootloder to ssl84d
then we flashed the box with blaclhole image 2.1.7 ssl84d.
my brother then took the box to his house and he did all the other stuff like putting in all the codes if you know what I mean done a scan installed his line and everything worked a treat.
hope this helps mate.
but be carefull if you have to update your bootloader update bootloader first don't reboot just refresh web page then install image then reboot.
hope all this makes sense cheers
mind this is all based on a dm800hd clone.
not sure if its any difference if your box is a genuine box.
