Commando V14

Commando v14 for the Dreambox 500s

Now with Usals and Rytec 2 day EPG

compiled from the UKCVS svn which includes fixes to the following

Scan Defaults to 28.2e, if you select another Sat it will save that as the last sat
Compatible driver for clones and Genuine DM500's

This image does not include any Cable support as cable is dead, but does fully support most of the normal Satellite requirements

as usual NO CAMS, KEYS, ROMS ,


all us neutrino users need now is for LraiZer to tweak the binary so it recognizes 256c png Picons).


With Thanks to LraiZer, PaphosAL, Satsearching, Scruff.

and to the Tuxbox boys for the work they have put into porting Neutrino to this fun box, (shame they seem to not continue development, or answer questions anymore)

THE PASSWORD is commando



New in Commando v14:

USALS (GOTO XX) diseqc support- thanks to Lraizer and Satsearching
Rytec 2 Day XML EPG - thanks to Lraizer
FastZap On-Off control in Driver/Boot Options
New head.ko Driver - thanks to LraiZer (support for alternative user driver to be loaded from /var/driver)
Softcam Status in softcam menu- again thanks to LraiZer
New boot logo - thanks to Satsearching
And, by popular demand, a retro blast from the past (2007 C9) is back. See if you notice it...
Top-secret Password is still commando
As usual- FTA Only - no keys nor cams. It's a rulez thing



AutoFS (CIFS mount tested) - Streaming - Tuxbox Commander - yWeb I/F - Lemmings - Pacman - Solitaire - Tetris - Vierg (Connect 4) - boot logo - Rytec 2 Day EPG with shellexec GUI - all this and more in C14!!

Despite the old Git's fetish with Free Space, we've enriched the new image with all these features, but have STILL maintained our world-beating 4.125MB megaMaxVar writeable JFFS2 var partition. So a typical user-customized C14 will provide something in the region of 3.3MB of Free Space!!

Anyone wishing to edit the SquashFS root partition with LraiZer's excellent Squazma Tools be warned: Your edited root must NOT exceed 2.752,512 bytes (0x2A0000h) in size!!

Good work, will test it now and rePort back.

Have the volume keys been fixed, or an oPtion included to swaP?

Nope- Volume keys work, just different on some R/Cs that's all. Besides, 99% of users leave the dm500 on 100% volume, then control actual Volume on the TV r/c.

But we'll ask LraiZer and Sadsearching to have a look at the possibility of expanding the 'Keybinding' map to allow more keys to be user-assigned...

Cheers- AL

hi m8 i got it from maplins about 15 month ago £50 not %100 but im %75 sure it supports most usals and desq1.2 desq1.1 desq1.0 ur geuss is as good as mine i will try find the box out

[Satsearching]

Ok, have you ever used usals before with that motor? And not the normal disequ 1.2?

I had terrible problems a few years ago with a Jaeger motor that was supposed to be fully Usals, but it wasn't!

But as a quick setup...........

In Service Scan, ensure you have...

Bouqet = Satellite-Bouquet
Diseqc = Diseqc 1.2
Fastscan = on

Then "save settings now"

Next, go into Motor Settings.

Ensure you select Use GotoXX = on
Set your lat and long

Do NOT select anything else, ie leave all the satellites lower down to off

Then select save settings now.

Then in service scan, select the satellite you want to scan, but DON'T select "save settings now"

Then select scan at the bottom.

Bit of info about usals here -->Usals

Bloody glad I opted for a solid 85cm fixed dish with a good quality quad LNB. Pulls in 19.2E and 28.2E perfick. This usals stuff doesn't sound too user-friendly to me...

[Satsearching]

Usals works fine m8, a lot easier than manual dish 1.2 control.

You don't know what you are missing on the other satellites!

As my dear old Mum used to say, "What you've never had, you'll never miss"

Apparently, dekd likes Commando 14 so much, he downloaded it twice!
