If you have a new DM500HD unit please be aware of a potential issue with
some early version 3rd party images that may/will BRICK your DM500HD
and could void the warrenty. The sympton will be that after power up the
front LED will stay permt GREEN, The Ethenet port and USB port will be
non responsive.
You may be able to recover the unit by using the latest Dreamup 1.3.3.5
with both the Ethenet and USB cable conected. BUT if you get a reply
from Dreamup stating "Waiting for acknowledge" and no further
activaty. The unit will have to be returned to your place of purchase or
Dream Germany for repair.
All Australian resellers have been made aware of this problem and have
adviced their clients accordingly.
This problem is not a Dream Multimedia issue but something created by
the 3rd party software developers who have not thorouly tested the
images before releasing.
I beleive LT and ****** images will be released shortly.
BE VERY CAREFULL WHEN LOADING UNPROVEN FIRMEWARE AS YOU MAY END UP WITH
AN EXPENSIVE DOORSTOP.
All units sold in Australia are preloaded with factory release images
only.
As stated the problem is related to corruption to the bootloader and
that ALL faulty units will have to be returned to Dream Germany for
reprogramming. Even though this is not a Dream Multimedia problem as it
is clearly stated that any installation of 3rd party software will void
the warrenty. I feel it is in the best interest for me at least to try
and get a solution where possible for the best of both us and Dream in
Australia anyway. But if you are stupid enough to do this several times
then you are on your own.

If it's a 3rd parties, Why my box BREAK?!(With purely original image). I'm sure IT'S A DREAM MULTIMEDIA issuse and nothing else !. I wonder why they choose silent? Have we any rights as a Test-customers?! Is this our answer as a group of people that their only mistake is trust this company and buy their new product?
Anyway, my serial No. is : A224141100040**
Your mixing up two problems... The one you had, seems to be a hardware issue caused by some faulty productions...
The other one was a problem that was really caued by faulty images (but i think those boxes are recoverable with the newest DreamUp )
