It looks that all the images for DM500HDv1 can also be installed in DM500HDv2. Is it right?

I installed the same Nemesis2.3-dm500hd-e2-OE(1.6)-SVN(095r6).nfi in both DM500HD and DM500HDv2 and it works well in both.

Version 2 is supposed to accept only OE2.0 images (not OE1.6). Nemesis never made OE2.0 immages, they stopped at OE1.6.

The difference between the DM500HDv2 and DM500HDv1 is the Memory, Flash and RAM, so 1 Gb and 512 Mb, instead of the 256 Mb and 64 Mb... so it looks very strange to me that an image would be compatible as the SSL are different too.

Do we talk about the same thing ? We talk about installation in Flash and not in multi-boot as well...

Right, it´s the installation in flash. I don´t use multiboot. I have installed Nemesis-es twice in both receivers and never installed SSLs prior to image. The first image installed was the original Dreambox firmware (bought new receivers with it).

This is the official site with the official "factory" images,

https://www.dreamboxupdate.com/

The drivers, and SSL are different in v2 and v1 versions, so I am surprised as I wrote that the exact same image will work on v2 and v1 boxes. Are you sure your boxes are v2 ? Can you post here a photo of the sticker with the serial of the box ? It should be printed clearly "DM500HD v2" on it.

Just checked the stickers. You were right,they really both are DM500 HD, which means they both are version 1. My mistake, I´m sorry. I was convinced the newer is version 2, as there´s a small difference between them - there´s no red light in it when switching it on (there is in the older one). So it must be a newer version of the version 1. My apologies Admin.

Don't worry ;o), so now we know why v1 images work on both your boxes. The Led, that's a possible modification yes or even software that doesn't use anymore the red, but it's a minor thing as it doesn't change anything on the behavior of the box.

So enjoy your boxes ;o),

Just to add to the whole story. Now I´m glad they are both version 1. So I can install OE1.6 images in them. And then I can install subtitles plugin Drtic which is indismissable (I´m a little hard of hearing) and which can´t install in images higher than OE1.6. I have very many movies recorded and I use Drtic to install and play back the subtitles. So I´m committed to old boxes and old images. See my point?
