hello all . dreds here again , thanks for reading my post
right , so finally got my hdd working , timeshift and record thanks for all the hel , also have cross epg working on a usb stick , thanks as well ..
just a few questions if anyone can help ?
1) Is there a way to download addons plugins ect straight to my memory stick , instead of straight to the flash ?
2) If so how would i create this path ?

thanks for looking .,dreds

you can download your plugins/extensions from the forum to your desktop, copy and paste to your stick. Then choose install local extensions in your DM800se software manager, you can then install from there.
 
Plugins install on the box memory mate
there should be ample memory for plugins that are needed on the dreambox :)
 
Yes maybe he is looking for space and yes there should be plenty, but I have a dm800se and 2 dm800hd and one of the 800hd's has bad sectors and it will only run with bare min installs ie CCcam/EPGImport/Webif and a couple of others and I have less than 1mb of space left.
I don,t use it much so not to much of an issue.
Maybe he has similar probs, not much he can do about that.
 
thanks for the replies fellas ... the issue im having is i dont seem to have alot of flash memory left as its only 60mb s. ive got about 5mbs left at the moment and want to install picons which i have done but took them off as i only had 1mb left on the flash which isnt good i take it ? so thats why i wanted to install stuff straight to the hdd or at least picons on the usb ..
Could i delete some of the plugins in the installer in ts panel to create more room , is it an option ?
thanks

Hi mate...Don't install picons on the flash memory that a sure way to give you problems. Install them on your pen drive in a folder, name it picon. Stick the drive back in the box and that should then work fine.

Put the picons on the usb or hdd not flash

media/usb/ picon is the path you want,unless your USB stick is mounted as media/hdd,

As for your lack on space,are you sure crossepg is actually saving to the USB stick and not the flash memory?

as wiz says check crossepg hasn't been installing on the flash as this is a know problem

goto cross epg's configuration page on the box and check location first, should be your USB

via your FTP client search path: / and in search: epg.dat and search .... the only location for epg should be USB anywhere else its storing on flash

:)


what plugins do you have installed to only have 5mb left ?
