Hi

Just upgraded from a Technomate 1500 to a Dreambox 500s and need a little bit of help.

So far I've scanned Hotbird, Astra 19.2 & 28.3.

I've setup the network and downloaded MGcamd via bue button, i've FTP'd the keys for Premiere & D+ and all seemed well.

Went to find the Premiere sport 1 & 2 and the Direckt channels but can't find them. I know on the Technomate it gave them another name but I can't find them anywhere?

Also my ART card does not work in the Dreambox, is there some setting somewhere I am missing? The card is facing down?

I'm using Gemini 3.4 if that helps?

Hoping to get Premiere or ART working before the footie starts!

Cheers in advance

Look for Premiere Sport Portal and press Green button.

I could'nt get my inXtc card to work either. Think you have to set up the CI
 
what you need is a cam that will work with your card. You can download cccam and use that instant, simple & no config files to muck about with. Mgcamd needs to run in conjuntion with newcs to be able to read cards, so if you use that then you have to download & install newcs plus you may have to amend the newcs config file.
 
All sorted now guys, thanks.

Bought the Dreambox from Alsat but no INXTC card came with it?? was it supposed to come with one?

Is the tuner on the Dreambox better than the Technomate, never had an issue viewing ART but the signal strenght was alway about 50-60% but with the Dreambox its 80-90% with my 70cm 'compact' dish!

Dreamboxes are not renowned for their quality of tuners. The technomate is probably a more sensitive one. You shouldn't compare the signal readings from different receivers, you should read from a sat meter.
 
try this pb plugin for the dreambox. ftp the attached file into var/tuxbox/config reboot. then via blue button addons downloads you can doanload keys staight to your dreambox.
