dw version 3 neutrino

-------------------------------------
VM Scanning fixed (thanks to cydine)
-------------------------------------
7 day EPG (experimental) (thanks to freddyfrog, paphosal)
By default this is off to turn it on
blue
blue
5
select Cable sectionsd
reboot the box
then
blue
blue
2
green

To add /remove channels for 7 day epg
blue
blue
2
yellow

If you select a 7day epg setting with the sat sectionsd setting on then you will get no EPG
------------------------------------------
there are 4 seperate images depending on remote layout, it's easier than keep swapping neutrino's and cleaner.
-------------------------------------------------
The DigitalWorldZ Menu has been moved to the Blue button menu to keep in line with current dbox2 releases
-------------------------------------------------
We no long use /var/etc/init to start programs on bootup we now use /var/etc/init.d/start_neutrino the tuxbox standard
-------------------------------------------------
Known issues

Still no component on video output
CCcam still doesnt work (still trying)
-------------------------------------------------

The DW team would like to say thanks to cydine, freddyfrog, paphosal, lraizer, Renwich, the tuxbox boys and everyone else who has made this image possible.

make sure that your not selecting flash erase as this is not good.
otherwise can't think what is going wrong ?

[PaphosAL]

Oh yeah, and after you click the [Flash] button. the next dialogue box asks you a Yes / No question - also to do with Erase. Make sure you click [No] or [Nein] to this.

Another thing to note: You must initially power the DM off at the mains, then remove the scart and the ethernet cables, then connect the null-modem cable.

Start DreamUP and click [Connect] - then power the box ON when it tells you to.



@Scruff: We really must find a way of getting Editable SquashFS via Ubuntu working with this, m8. I've been trying for 2 days solid, using your 2009 instructions on DWZ. If the dm500 had an LCD, it would be saying Kein System LOL! Tearing me hair out. Wondering if a different version of mksquashfs holds the answer?

Cheers- AL

have you had a look at the squazma-tools i threw together a while back? that tool gives you editable squashFS via ubuntu, i never tested it with dreambox images as i made it to edit dbox squashfs images really. it works on sportster squashfs, cvs squashfs , powerboard enigma squashfs ...etc...

[LraiZer]

in the squazma script file in squazma-tools you would probably need to change OR add this code to detect the squashfs location specific for a dreambox image instead of a dbox image.

if [ "`dd if=$SRCF bs=1 skip=1179648 count=4`" = "sqsh" ]; then
echo "$SRCF : found SQUASHFS partition"
DSTF=$SRCF.squazma
echo "$DSTF : stripping flfs(0<0x120000) partition"
dd if=$SRCF of=$DSTF bs=512 skip=2304
./unsquazma $DSTF
rm -f $DSTF
fi

[EDIT]
done a quick test with the above script mod using the dw3.0 image and it finds the squashfs partition in the dreambox image ok but will not extract the image contents for editing as it gives a filesystem version miss match.

Glad to see you have the bit between your teeth on this, LraiZer! But we're in great danger of hijacking Scruff's image thread here, m8.

Shall we wait and see if Scruff is happy to continue this topic in here, or would rather we move the relevant posts above over to your original squazma-tools thread, and carry on with it there?

I''m sure Scruff will want to see a solution for this as well (not that I'm suggesting it's a bug in his fine image, coz it isn't!). Meanwhile, I googled an interesting read here - which points us to the fact that this incompatibility is mebee kernel related. Have a gander, m8.

The DW3 Neutrino and SS4.1 Enigma for DM500 I've been messing with are both Kernel 2.6.9 - which suggests that it might be the wrong mksquashfs tool in use.

Cheers- AL

[scruff1963]

It is a special mksquashfs for the dreambox it is in a linux that has compiled a dreambox image it is in /tuxbox-cvs/root/cdk/bin and called /mksquashfs-dream. I just rename to mksquashfs and put a copy on my desktop.

If your using this image then blue, blue, yellow, yellow,blue,green will make a root.tar for you (thanks to cryogenics for his code)

I have attached the required mksquashfs if you wish to play, any finished image must not be larger than 5111808 bytes or it will not work.

[prince786]

follow the inst properly they work

[pt-1]

I have no DM Box but a mate is struggling to set-up scanning for cable.
How do you set my location on this Image to have the VM scanning for UK Cable?

[scruff1963]

it should be
blue
blue
2
red
or if he knows his details
menu
service
service scan
scan-modes
change scam-mode to
Network ID
then set the settings.

Hello I´m a newbie, here so sorry for my maybe stupid questions.

I´m currently a gemini-user with my dreambox(es). I got several ones running and I now like to try Neutrino on my DM 500.
Working with Gemini 4.7 you can choose either what remote you want to use. I normally prefer to get the one from my my 7025 ...

Question : Will this be possible. Can I change the layout of the remote ?

The 2nd more important reason to change the image is I want to try if it´s possible now to use NFS for recording & playbalck.
At the moment I got massive problem with my NAS connections using Gemini. With a Qnap TS-459 & TS-859 it´s not possible to get smooth connection for recording over NAS. Maybe Neutrino is better choice for this type of boxes --- with my DboxII I was always satisfied with Neutrino.

Cheers
Andy
