Its a steep learning curve alright. Mine almost went on ebay 3 times.

However its been bent to my will (a bit) - I havent had any luck with c/s and it wont read my inxtc card unless the basic enigma image is active!

Basic cams are easy. Do it via the blue button

Blue - add ons - cams (or something very similar - Im doing this in my lunch break at work....)

We can talk you through it this evening if you are stuck.

Once you have loaded the latest satan key bundle dont forget to restart the cam (err blue, green on gemini)

Where did you get the screengrab software from AS :?

I'm trying to figure out how to set up the nGrab server bit now

A 20 quid Pinnacle TV card in my computer. Ive got all my kit cross wired in a weird and wonderful way so I can grab from video, Sky, my Echostar, and the 7020

Cant do that unfortunately

My computer is on the other side of the house to my dreambox

Ah, fear not brave Dreamboxer...

Type your Dreambox IP number into your Internet browser and hit enter, then enter Userid=root, Password=dreambox and voila - a web interface. More fun

Now hit the Control tab, the Wakeup button (if the DB is in standby), then the Screenshot button.

Save the image, and you're done. :clap:

Hi BG...
