Help with DB7025, no video

  • I just got my 7025 and I have a couple of questions:


    1) How do I set the video output from PAL to NTSC? since it is in PAL mode, I have no picture and there is no HTTP interface as far as I can tell.


    2) How do I flash this box with the latest image? I tried following the instructions on the site and it doesn't work. It gets into a stage where it says: "box is in serial HTTP mode, 127.0.0.11" and then nothing happens.
    I have conencted to it via telent and here is the output of the ps ax comamnd:

    enigma2 is running, but where is the HTTPd?


    Thanks!

  • If you follow the instructions given on the website above, there will be a webserver running on the box with an IP assigned via DHCP (or fixed, if you told the 2nd stage loader to use one).

  • I tried those instructions that I have a DHCP server on my network. The DB has no problems getting an IP address and as I mentioned before, I can access it through telnet from my PC. but when I get to step 4 on your instructions to open a web browser and go to the DB, it comes back with blank. there is no HTTPd running there.

  • No, it did exactly as you say and stopped at that point with the IP address. the flashing is done. Now the problem is to switch it from PAL to NTSC.

  • Update your firmware with the "Dreamville-Packages"


    Very short instruction:

    Code
    wget http://dm7025.dreamville.de/update.sh && sh update.sh


    If it goes wrong (box won't boot up anymore etc.), you can always flash the old image via 2nd stage and a webbroswer using the method described above.



    Switching from PAL to NTSC if you can't see anything on you TV:

    Code
    echo ntsc > /proc/stb/video/videomode


    This is only a temporary switch, you still have to change the videomode in the setup after that.

  • All right done. and after this message: "Updaten sollte funktioniert haben. Bitte jetzt die Box per Fernbedienung neustarten!"


    It rebooted fine and came back in PAL. I did the echo ntsc > /proc/stb/videomode and switched it to NTSC. using the menu that now for the first time I can see, I went to A/V settings and found the setting for video which was on PAL and changed it to NTSC. BUT, how do I save this? the up and down arrows just move through the available options there and there is no way I can get to the "OK" button to say, thank you, please save this for the future !?!? How do I save this?????
