Hello,
I'm looknig for a way to prevent the initial setup wizard from running. When i install a new image in BA i always copy settings from another image over into the new one. But the setup wizard always starts when the image is first run.
Thanks!

I've tried changing channel from Premiere HD 5.1 to Suisse HD ac3 a couple of times, only once was there a slight 'tick', never 1-2 seconds of screaming.
Swiyching from german 5.1 to english 2.0 on premiere doesn't have any noise between switching.
The manual (on the bottom of page 61 
) does however state:
"Bei bestimmten HD DVD's und Blue-Ray-discs treht wehrend der wiedergabe eventuell Rauschen auf.Das macht sich in der regel bei der Formatumschaltung bei laufender wiedergabebemerkbar. Es weist nicht auf eine störung hin."
Well, goodmorning!
After reading (almost emotional ) reports of ac3 working over hdmi i ripped my setup apart and rewired the whole thing (left out the optical wiring from dm800) and guess what...
My Onky606 now reports "Dolby D 5.1" when tuned to BBC HD of Premiere HD. (Haven't tried every channell out there, but this should be enough for a test.) :O
I don't know why it didn't work befre, but it could be the fact i've only owned the 606 for about a week now and still getting to know it.
Really? ..hmm.. so what stream is sent over hdmi when downmix is off? Is it raw mpeg? That WOULd be funny (not!) as my old JVC RX888 could handle that.. unfortunately it didn't have hdmi 
However.. i think some people may confuse stereo sound with 5.1.. (i did first time i hooked the 800 up to the 606... only to find out moments later it wasn't 5.1)
However i do hope you're right as that would mean a possible solution but below is the answer from DMM support (borrowed from another forum):
Habe bei Dream Multimedia nachgefragt und das ist die Antwort:
Sehr geehrte(r) xxxxxxx
nein, dies ist leider nicht möglich.
Über das DVI-HDMI Kabel haben Sie nur den normalen Stereoton oder einen
AC3DownMix.
Die "volle" Dolby Digital Tonspur haben Sie nur über ein optisches Kabel am
Digitalausgang.
Vielen Dank für Ihr Verständnis.
Hello,
Is there a way (in software) to switch off the spdif/ac3 led entirely (when going in standby)? I use optical concentrators (reverse splitters) because my amplyfier doen't have enough optical inputs. The optical output on the dm800 seems to be permanently powered thus making use of the concentrators impossible.
It seems the led gets switched off/on when changing channels, so it shouldn't be too difficult to implement for the coders. Even having the led off when in deep-standby (off) would be nice.
Thanks.
Hi,
Here's the ready made file.
Enjoy!
Hi,
Someone over at another forum had the same question, so i'll give the same answer
# DM800 auto resolution change by RedNax
# Just start this script to run in background
# v0.1 initial version
# v0.2 only set outut resolution on change
# v0.3 compare actual output with streamresolution
# v0.4 redid all the code. more compact. Also checks progressiveness
# v0.5 added backward compatibility for older images (ie no progressive 'file')

Enjoy!
Not that i know of (although CanalDigitaal (dutch) has the progressive bit set sometimes). But they can if they want to.
Nice! 
(what about 576p??)
Hi,
Older images may not have the progressive indicator file yet. So i've
built in backward compatibility (The default output will be
progressive for 720 and interlaced for everything else).
You could store the script in /usr/script
make sure you make the script executable
( chmod +x /usr/script/autores.sh )
start it manually from telnet (/usr/script/autores.sh& ). note the &
at the end.
OR
type the following (dm800# is the unixprompt in telnet.. ) for automatic start on reboot
dm800# cd /etc/init.d
dm800# echo '/usr/script/autores.sh&' > autores
dm800# chmod +x autores
dm800# cd /usr/script
dm800# chmod +x autores.sh
dm800# cd /etc/rc3.d
dm800# ln ../init.d/autores S20autores.sh
dm800# reboot
Enjoy!

Hi,
Attached you'll find a new version of my little script. Besides now being a much more compact and tidy script, it also takes into account the 'progressiveness' of the stream. Also it will work with any (weird) resolution should it ever be used (VERY unlikely).
Regards,
Rednax
Hi all,
Just start the script below from init.d and run it in the background.
Output resolution will change according to the resolution of the stream being watched. Feel free to modify it to suit your needs. Should work with any image!!
Enjoy!
