Nevermind I would personally bet on some image-related problem or incompatibility. Try to ask for help on Gemini Image forum ( http://www.i-have-a-dreambox.com ) If you find a workaround to your problem, could you post it here for further reference? Thank you ^_^

That’s weird What’s your computer OS? I heard there are some problems with Windows Vista acting as a back end, which are fixed using SP1.

Hi Alessio,i use an FTP client,not directly telnet commands, so i find out that i have 3 files in var/log directory,i dont see any var/syslog directory.
The first is wtmp(6kb),the second with the name lastlog (0 bytes) and the last is a txt with lot of stuff inside but no error as far as i can see.

Thank you Try to look for crash information in your /var/log/messages e /var/log/syslog (by logging into your box using Telnet) .. if you find something, feel free to paste it here so I can examine it!

Everything seemed to be fine,according to the guide step by step,it was buffering but every every time it didin’t work.Enigma was restarting every time when the buffering ended.
Same with P2P and camera.
The stream ok,Vlcf ok,interface ok,WMPE but nothing.The yellow bar was fulling but at 100% in the end it was just restarting enigma.
Do you know why.
Thanks anyway for those fantastic guides.
