NBOX 5800SX Receiver – Nebula Zero V2 Ultimate guide

  • All info from various forums, (sataid, linux-support, digitalworldz) and from various members of forums, most notably tomthered and nano, reeves1985, laurals 53, lraizer for his autobouquets. (there are others and sorry if I haven’t mentioned you.
    I wrote this guide as not all the answers seemed to be available for me to understand on one forum so decided to do a noob friendly guide.


    You will need:
    The NBOX receiver
    A PC/Laptop
    The Nebula image
    USB pen
    DCC or VuCC (the later is my preference)


    First off you’ll need to check what boot is already loaded on your box – turn the box on and read the display, if it says nBox then you can install this image on the box.


    Grab the Nebula image and extract it to a usb pen, you will also need to download the update file so your usb pen will have the following files: rootfs.img, uImage and update.


    Now put the usb pen in the nbox and turn on. As its booting press the up arrow (on the box, not remote as I done) and press ok when you find UPDT. The box will update to nand (that’s how mine runs) and you may need to reboot when finished (cant remember for 100%).


    Congratulations you now have the image running. Follow on screen instructions to set up network and tuners. Remember ANT2 is actually the primary feed so if you only have one feed going to the box it needs to go there.


    If Its not in English, press OPT, select 2nd last option, select 2nd option, select 3rd option, and English (if that is your preferred language).


    Now to set up autobouquets for sly UK – You will need dvbsnoop and enigma2-plugin-extensions-autobouquets-e2-201208212300-all.zip‎.


    When FTP’ing with vucc or dcc remember the user is root and pass if pkteam
    FTP dvbsnoop to usr/bin and the .ipk file to tmp folder (on root). Once done go back to your tv and press blue on remote, go to plugins, addons, ipk menu, install and it will install for you. After about a minute or 2 you will have to reboot the box as it will freeze but don’t worry it will have installed fine. Once rebooted go to an sctive channel (pay channel like *** sports) press OPT, setup, service searching and automatic scan. When finished pres OPT, plugins and autobouquets E2. Select your area in HD or SD and press ok.


    Now you have channels in order. Only 2 things left to do EPG and Oscam. To set up epg press OPT, setup, crossepg, configure, storage device – HDD, setup the rest as you would like ie time to schedule download etc. Once done go to OpenTV providers and select *** uk 28.2, press green and then yellow to download. Once that’s done you will have a 7 day EPG. There’s another EPG called coolepg I think available in the plugins menu. I had to reboot to load epg data.


    Last but not least Oscam (for c-line and n-lines). Press OPT, plugins, green (on remote), emu, and download config_oscam then download oscam_3144 (it’s the only one that worked for me but others may work for you). Go to PC or laptop and open vucc and select ftp once logged in. On the right hand side go to var/keys and edit oscam.server. For N-line it will be –


    [reader]
    label = <anything>
    protocol = newcamd
    key = 0102030405060708091011121314
    device = DNS_address,port_number
    account = username,password
    group = 1
    fallback = 1



    Just change red parts to your line info (leave a comma with no space between user and pass etc. Once done press blue, emu manager, select oscam (press right), press yellow to disable EMU in standby and up to enable mapping CA1 to CA0. Press red to stop and green to restart. Back out and your channels should all now be working.
