BBC Stream 3 0-6 - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

I have a DM500 clone, and I want to get the 7 BBC satellite streams to watch the World Snooker Championship starting today. I have an old satellite receiver which receives the channels and I can watch them with no problems, but on the Dreambox I search for the channels, and I can see that the box can get the channels but when I go to the channel list they don't show up for some reason.
Any help?
P.S.
Orbital Position: 28.2 E
Polarization: V
Transponder Number: 2.038
Frequency (MHz): 12441
Symbol Rate (ksym/s): 27500

The BBC streams are flagged as data streams and wont show up on dreamboxes. Grab yourself a copy of DreamboxEdit from the happyllama website, import the channel list into it, find the 28E Stream 0-6 channels right click on them and convert them to tv channels.

Reload the channels back into the db & away you go.

5 minute job once you have the db access set up.
