Thank you for your answer.

I have been testing this issue with OoZooN and [Moderator] Fremdimage, verstösst gegen die Boardregeln [/Moderator] , old and new versions, also the latest images, and both still have this problem.

I have tested this with and without the plugin AutoTimeshift and the problem appears with and without that plugin.

I have a DM8000.
Every now and then, when I press the 1 key to jump back 15 seconds, it jumps to the end of the timeshift.
Sometimes I can't remember if I am in timeshift or not, so then I press Play/Pause, see I am in timeshift, press Play/Pause again to resume and then press the 1 key to go back 15 seconds and then the box goes to the end of the timeshift.
This doesn't happen every time, just every now and then.
Can this be solved at some stage ?

It pays to read.
Will a 32 GB CF card work for timeshift in a DM8000HD ?

Like I typed in my previous post :
I have been watching a channel until the timeshift was 9,5GB, switching to another channel took 5.8 seconds.

This says that I can store files of more than 3,5GB, plus, EXT2 and EXT3 both have a filesize limit that is a lot higher.
So that will not be of any effect.

But to answer the question, I formatted my CF card with EXT2.

I have just installed, formatted and tested the Transcend Premium 400X CF 64GB and I am pleasently surprised.

It worked immediately, it seemed pretty quick, but after writing 3,5 GB, my box rebooted.

No idea what caused this, I left the timeshift file on the CF card and started again.

Have not had any reboots anymore.

I have been watching a channel until the timeshift was 9,5GB, switching to another channel took 5.8 seconds.

A lot faster than with harddisk.

Thanks.
I have ordered the earlier mentioned Transcend 400x card and my wife just told me it arrived at home

I will report back after testing it tonight.

Great, thank you very much.

Hi All,

For a week I have used a 16 GB CF card for my timeshift, which worked fine.
Now I am looking for a 32 GB CF card and found a Kingston 133x 32 GB, I have not bought it yet, because on a formum I read that a person bought the same one and never got it to work.
Does anybody know of or have a 32 GB CF card that works fine for timeshift in the DM8000HD ?

Regards,
SnijdeA.

I am sorry for being blunt ... but how does that answer my question ?

Thank you.
I will return this one.

My dealer sold me a BSBE2-401A to be built in in my DM8000.
On many sites I read that that tuner is only to be used in a DM800.
Can anybody tell me if this tuner is for the 800, the 8000 or both ?

And also ... the tuner came with a non fitting backplane, see attachment.
My dealer asked the importer for an explanation and they say that DMM doesn't have the proper backplanes.
Odd story.
Does anybody have more information on this ?

Thnx,
SnijdeA.

Thanks.

I have installed it, it's slightly better than the original time-shift, but still not what I expect from such an expensive receiver.

Guess we'll have to do it with this.

Any idea what the option "Alternate timeshift per event" does ?

When I ask this question to Dream Multimedia, I don't get an answer.
When I ask this question on this forum, I don't get an answer.
Vey very disappointed, such an expensive sat-receiver and not proper time-shift while all the el-cheapos have one.

I use the latest version of the firmware.
When I press the record button, I get a menu with the options to stop recording, start recording another channel, start recording and edit time etc etc.
And when I make a choice, the menu disappears and nothing happens.

I have a DM8000 with a 500GB harddisk (470GB free).
I can start an instant recording, that works, but I can't start a second instant recording on another channel, the second recording doesn't start.
It does work when I press Info and then the Green button option, but why not through the instant record button ?

My DM7020 had the option for a permanent time-shift, which I had set to 5 seconds, so my tuner would start recording 5 seconds after switching channels, so I could always "rewind" back to the beginning.
My DM8000 doesn't have that option.
Does anybody here know if that option will ever become available in the DM8000 ?

Gr,
Arjan.

Thanks.

Is there a way to find out what the changes are per daily update ?

I can see them for every version number, but was just wondering if the daily updates had a log too.

Thanks

I see the following files for the 8000 :

experimental-dm8000_20091213.nfi
experimental-dm8000_20091212.nfi
experimental-dm8000_20091211.nfi
experimental-dm8000_20091210.nfi

experimental-dm8000_20091204.nfi
experimental-dm8000_20091203.nfi
release-dm8000_2.6.2.nfi

I assume the last one is not experimental, but then, why is this not the one in the download section on the main website.

Confused.
