  • Hello, a few days ago I bought an Octagon sf8008 4K UHD and they recommended me to install the Define 6.4 image, I try to install a current channel list with the DreamboxEdit editor without success, please can someone help.

  • I have no problem with other images, everything is perfect, I have the error with Image Define 6.4

    The Lamedb file is in the channel list directory that I want to install.

    Are you saying that you don't need a password on that image? Most images do nowadays. That error does not say why it failed. I am presuming that you tested connection with the box and that was fine?


    Anyway, you can try sending an "init 4" command using Terminal/Putty. Then FTP the channel files to /etc/enigma2. Then restart with "init 3" command.

  • The easiest way to upload a setting list in Define 6.4 is the use of Dreambox Edit u have to send them in this directory


    /home/gx/local/enigma_db/


    so set your Dreambox Edit with decoder Profile Name , IP , pass (root root should be) and the path and save . Then transfer the files....


    Sorry, i forgot to say that Define is not an Enigma 2 image so probably would be better to move this thread in Octagon Section where there will be more help!

    Reload of lamedb and userbouquets succeded.

    Reload of satellites.xml failed, mode 3 not supported by your box.

    Reload of blacklist failed, mode 4 not supported by your box.



    Something went wrong because it tells me that the format is not compatible with my box, do you know of a list of channels compatible with sf8008 4K UHD and the Define 6.4 image, Thank you very much
