Haven't heard of what flashing SSL is, so I'll pass on that thanks.

Disconnected some network items and the flash with DreamUP worked fine, and repeatedly, so managed to flash image openatv 6.1 successfully. After that I tried openatv 7.4, and its various versions. All loaded & installed fine but all crashed near to the end of booting with a blue screen telling me "ENUM.DELSYS failed".

Openatv 7.3 was then loaded, flashed, installed and booted fine, however the Dreambox password must have got corrupted so when subsequently trying to upload a bouquet via DreamEdit it failed. Resetting the password to "dreambox" using Telnet and "passwrd" fixed the problem and it's all been working fine except the OLED display has now suddenly decided to change to showing a mirror image!

I can't find any menu with that option in it, any ideas on how to revert it to normal text?

Update - rebooted and it's reverted back to normal text. I'd love to know how something that wacky happened.

Progress but no success yet:

The widely noted "power on" whilst holding the standby button is wrong for my DM7020HD. It should be Power switch plus DOWN button, then it displays STOP with the IP address.

Getting the right USB driver for the DM7020HD was a problem. Eventually the SiLabs driver was installed and works fine.

Now I can get DreamUP to launch the flashloader and then start uploading the .nfi image.

All goes well until the uploading fails with the message "ERROR [Connection aborted] Upload aborted!" I've tried different versions of DreamUP (1.3.3.9/11/12) and various images:

4.0 fails at about 40%

5.3 fails at about 30%

6.0 fails at about 40%

6.1 fails at about 60% and 80% on another try

Sounds like some sort of external time-out but from where?

No it's definitely a DM7020HD as I wrote it so it is a v1.

USB cable, RJ45 and Network connection all fine. Dreamup recognises the connection so I would expect the list you gave to be ok. But it does not properly work!

It just fails to load the flashloader like the manual shows.

DM7020HD, turning on the power switch while holding the standby button does not stop the normal booting process.

So I've used DreamUp which connects fine to the mini-USB service port using an FDTI driver CDM v2.12.28, but the power on switch just makes the box boot up as normal.

No "uploading of flash-loader" .

Do I need a flash loader file to be saved locally?
