your question Where can I purchase a replacement remote?

I need either the Larger one:

Or just the older style:

The new style remote is simply too small for my hands, and hitting the buttons along the bottom is difficult (and sometimes results in my dropping the remote!)

nevermind... digging through enough menus, and I found it. Wow, the manual was not very helpful

How can I manually add a satellite to the list to scan/etc on the dreambox 500s? I tried loading an updated satellite.xml file, but the list still shows only European sats and not North American sats. I simply want to add some sats like 97W to my list so that i can scan them and watch tv. (Of course the next natural question would be - how to I manually add transponders/channels to my new sat)

THANKS
