    You need the cable version of jade with the transponders...6887 (davic)...6952 (docsis) or brute force uk.

    Ah right yeah, you need a cables.xml file with all the freq's listed in it.

    Here's one that should work: http://www.sendspace.com/file/2b2sx6

    Thanks to PaphosAl on ukcvs.org for it.

    FTP the file to /etc/tuxbox on the dreambox. Reboot then when you go to scan settings choose either slow scan (20mins ish) or the one for your area. Use the slow scan if the area one fails to find anything.

    The cables.xml only tells the box where to scan. What freqs, symbol rates etc. If you have scanned and found the channels then you already have a cables.xml that works.

    To decrypt the channels you'll need to get the emu working.

    You need to add evocamd to the list of softcams on the box and make set is as default for all channels. Then when set, reboot the box and leave on a premium channel until the keys AU.

    You can download evocamd from the software downloads menu when you press blue button. Under softcams I think.

    are you aware of the major nationwide changes to this service? the one which will see these boxes reduced to nothing more than freeview boxes?

    ..all the info is here and the warning signs have been there for months now. You can't hold the seller resposible if your getting no picture as a result of the new system which is being rolled out.


    [edit]
    ah, I see someone beat me to it...

    I see where you are coming from but, my fault I should have said, via PM he told me another cable box he has is working fine, so the N3 switchover hasn't hit his area yet.
