I have USB in, but network is just for LAN, found wireless in another direction but have made a mistake entering details and can't see where to delete now!! Lol

Try
blue panel
network
wlan setup
adapter settings
put in you details and press green to save

then back out to wlan setup and press restart WLAN i would imagine

Assign a fixed ip address to your box it will probably be under settings / network
Assign a similar IP address to your pc
So if you have 192.168.1.10 as your box & 192.168.1.15 as you pc

Where/How do you do this?

I dont use wifi
but i would try
use the up and down on the remote to select the line you want
use left and right to edit
thats what works on mine but I have not saved any data
there is also 4 coloured keys on bottom
red cancel /green save
what about yellow and blue do they do anything

Imstuck · 03-09-2014 11:40pm

Read on Linux that it's a right pain for wifi on that image, refuses a lot of the time, looks excellent though!! Gonna try open arp

connect your lan cable between the lan port on your box and the lan port of your pc
open up dreambox edit
go to options and put in the IP address that you gave the box
google what the root password is for the sab enigma image that your using

in dreamboxedit go to file and ftp download
this should retrive the current channell list and boquets from your box

in the right hand side of the program you can drag and drop the channels where you like
when done save
go to file upload and send it back to the box
restart enigma
and check

I've been experimenting but to no avail. I'm not the best with this sort of stuff
.
This is what I have done:

DreamBoxEdit Options Box:
IP address 192.168.0.5
HTTP 80
username root
password dreambox

press ok

go to FTP, press Receive Files From Dreambox

Returns error message: 'There were errors retrieving files from the Dreambox. Check the log for more details.'

Log says:
Connecting to ...
Could not connect to Dremabox. Check IP Address, network settings and status of Dreambox.

Any suggestions? I'm trying

Can anyone tell me how to organise the channels on the box? I'm starting to regret my purchase!!

Hi, quick question - I bought a Sab Combo with Enigma installed - I like the machine so far with the exception of the channels - is it possible to organise the channels on the box? I have googled and can't find an answer. Thanks in advance.

Hi. Learning this system takes time so don't panic. It has taken me months to get good with the basics. Once you get it your knowledge of how these systems work increases dramatically.

I just move my channels manually. Select channel and hit menu then add channel to bouquet. I generally put all my channels in the favourite bouquet as I only use saorview and FTA. Do this manually for each one you want. You can move the order by selecting Enable move mode in the menu. Hit menu and select Disable move mode when finished.

Once you have a go at installing new images you will become a whizz at navigating bouquet order.

Yeah I know. The one I had previous was difficult enough to get used to when I started with it - I could just change/delete/move channels as I wanted.

I can't find any of the English stations now to try it!!

I'll have to find the channels! Thanks for the advice!

Freshpots hyperion 4 image has a fix for the boot display. Plugins, download plugins and vfd. Don't like open arp, so don't know if the same plugin exists

Imstuck · 04-09-2014 8:37am

Thank you, will try that also, also like the look of that Hyperion 4 but couldn't get wifi to connect unfortunately

just press menu when your on a channel and you will see a load of options for making up your own channel orders, spend a bit of time experimenting with it and it will all make sense. when you get the hang of it you will wonder why you ever doubted your purchase!

When I press Menu, it just brings me to the main menu but no options for the channel.

3. Press the Red button
4. Scroll to desired channel
5. When on channel - press the Menu button

An easier way is, run Auto Bouquets, then ...

From a TV Station, Press OK to list the list of channels. From the channel list, Press MENU. From here, you can then remove, move or do whatever you like with Channels and Bouquets.

Just one more quick question - when recording say for example TV3, the only station I can view is RTE1 - is there any way around this? With my old box, I could record a channel and watch another.

I was asked this last night - I don't know what you're talking about - not au fait with this stuff.

I got the recording stuff sorted out - I recorded a BBC channel - BBC One - and I could still access the Saorview channels and BBC Two and I recorded a UTV channel and the same thing happened. I also recorded BBC and TV3 at the same time. BUT then - for no reason I have lost the Saorview channels - I was watching it around 6 and it started going fuzzy - I could watch RTE2 and the rest but they have all stopped working now.
I really don't know what is going on.

I'm running fp hyperion v4 and have everything working but does anyone know how I change cooltvguide from displaying 12 lines to just 8 or 6 lines.

You can press menu and set one of your colour buttons to Guideswitch which will cycle between views

amd64 · 04-09-2014 10:24pm

The yellow button is set to guideswitch which cycles through coolguide/tiny guide/multiguide etc but I cant get it to change the amount of lines it shows per page,its not a major issue,I just wanted the lines to be bigger,its like that switching guides isn't actually switching the view,I have reinstalled but still stays the same.

Don't think you can change the amount of lines (without delving into the plugin python code), you have 4 pre-set EPG views that you can cycle through

amd64 · 04-09-2014 10:41pm

If you look at the cooltvguide site the video shows just 6 lines under the mini tv,but maybe it has to do with picon size which I have tried to adjust in the settings menu but still no joy.
Its like its stuck on the nice guide view and wont change to multiguide which is the one with only 6 lines on page.

There is only one single Terrestrial tuner. Both TV3 and RTE1 are on the same MUX. So once you select one, you can only stay on it and watch only programmes on the same MUX

I wonder if it is some setting on the image? Dhcp matter or anything like that? I can't get to view the ip on box for some reason, it just says it's hidden, although used the search on DCC found it, pressed connect, line went green, then red and came up with same error....

If the line went green then maybe ur connection is ok, when u downloaded ur image did it come with a readme file cos that would contain username and password for that image
