Hi All,

I am new to the Dreambox and looking for a some pointers and advice.

My home setup is three DM500s with a single Oz ND$ sub.

Images
Does running a mix of images affect the operation (eg PLI and Gemini images)?
I assume this shouldn't affect performance, and in terms of choice is seems personal preference based on a few feature features and presentation?

CCcam (2.0.4)
Simple 1 line configs of F,C seem to run fine with card in the box.
Simple config enabling phoenix reader works at 3.57MHz.

Does anyone have it working at 6MHz in a JaycarMKII or similar reader?

NewCS (1.5) / CCcam (2.0.4)

Simple config works fine using card slot.
Simple config enabling reader works at both 3.57Mhz and 6MHz

Are there any issues with using NewCS and CCcam, eg running both slows the box down?. Also I assume I if I start streaming video on the main box the CSing performance will drop off - although an option to fix this would be run the software on a separate linux PC?

Are there any parameters either setups I need to look at, or does the bare basic do the job well enough (so far either runs pretty smooth, other than the occasionally channel lockup, and an audio/video synch issue)

Card updates - is it correct CCcam >2.0.4 from will update card including ppv. Can any confirm whether NewCS1.5 updates the
card.


By they way, a big thanks to all the posters on this forum for the interesting and informative discussions!

Cheers
