    you need to load the bootloader for the box, once done, then flash with vix image of your choice. bootloader can be found in the vix image tab at the top

    it amalgamated in the entertainment. similar to Sly. the only way to do it is from the dreambox edit and make your own bouquet

    lifestyles is no longer available, even on Sky box. this has been moved into Entertainment, so you wont get it, unless you setup your own bouquet or use someone else's bouquet. its a pain as i used to like watching lifestyles and was easier to access.

    before trying anything can you get into the box by FTP? as you may need to get into the box if these next steps dont work. try this first - download the vix image of your choice (preferably Apollo 163) please see link below, and flash your box, if it works your in and luckly. otherwise reload bootloader again and once done reflash the image. if this does not work this is where you need to get into your box by FTP to delete certain files (am not sure where these will be and you may need to do some research or if anyone on here can support.

    follow the steps from here for flashing http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...ed-LX1-and-LX2
