    Default Dreambox 500s Remote

    Hey,

    Just wondering if anyone knows of a possible "dumbed down" remote that would work with the DM500s?

    Yes a remote for "special people". Basically a remote that may not have all the functionality of the orginal remote...basically just channel and volume controls.

    Or is there a way to load some sort of plug in or maybe create my own .sh?

    Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes....
    Open it up & put clear cellotape over the pads of the buttons you don't want them to access on the printed circuit board


    You will still be able to get there via the web interface

    Was leaning towards the universal remote. But was under the impression that once it picked up the dm it would learn all the functions.

    Taping the circuit board is a great idea thanks heaps.
