Dm500Hd Ntsc

    Hi all,


    I have bought my first Dreambox (DM500HD) and have some issues connecting to a Sony NTSC TV (using HDMI). There is no option on the TV to change to PAL. When the DM starts, I get a "Unable to detect a signal" and the screen stays black. I am using a Openpli 4 image.


    I have also tried a scart to component cable but got the same error. :frowning_face:


    I would have thought, this box also works on other settings than PAL.
    Can someone advise if the DM500 HD supports NTSC and also if there is a good firmware I could try? If not, then I may need to go for another brand.


    Thanks a lot!

    You should try setting your dm500hd A/V settings using webif with virtual remote (or openwebif in OpenPli).


    The correct settings are:


    Mode: HDMI
    Refresh rate: 60Hz


    The 50Hz is mostly used in EU and Asia, not in NTSC countries.
