DreamOS images like Merlin use the .deb version of plugins, not an .ipk, they are only for OE Alliance images.
To install .deb in telnet, FTP the file to /tmp then use this command dpkg -i /tmp/*deb

Thanks for your reply, I have been trying different images and found that Merlin has the best picture quality? do you know why that is ?.

do you know why that is ?
Not such mate. I don`t use that image myself.

With in any image you can download plugins from the pluginbrowser (Your Plugin Menu)
Just press the corresponding colour button for manage extensions / Manage.
Other third-party plugins you have to download and then ftp to folder /tmp
Use Software Manager to install local extensions then you are surten that the debian install file is correct installed.
What image is best is all up to you.
Since you have been a Vu+ users you might like Dream-Elite 6 special if you are custom to Blackhole/OpenBlackhole images

Hi guys, I have a few more questions, I have merlin in flash and other images on usb with BarryAllen, but the back up images in the usb sometimes are not found as the location the receiver is looking for is the hdd instead of BA in usb, has anyone any idea why this happens as I have to keep pulling the hdd out to get it to look at the usb again. My receiver is genuine and I wanted to try the OBH 4.4 image but it says its by japhar I thought he makes images for clone boxes only? am I correct.

You can use Japhar images they are allways label "Original" for none clones.
For BarryAllen Images you should just upload them to your HDD instead.
If you dont have the folder backup just create one and add your images there.
