now I can connect to my Dreambox using the native Tuxbox client, but as you all know, zapping is not as smooth as the pvr client and I do not have the EPG as well, now I would really love to have my dreambox DM-500S as a backend system or maybe a remote tuner to some backend systems
thanks

Today I use the plugin from NibuDev to get live TV on my ATV2. But a real integration of my DM500HD (Enigma2) via PVR-Plugin would be really great!

Hello. For the dreambox you can use the VuPlus add-on, it works really fine with an enigma based dreambox as backend. You have to use the XBMC-PVR edition and install the VuPlus add-on then.
After the installation of the add-on :
1) Go to XBMC add-on, choose "Configure" on the VuPlus add-on and just enter the IP address of your dreambox.
2) Go to XBMC skin to enable the "LiveTV" function

Works really great with a dreambox for me...

Did you manage to find out how to get DM500s as backend?
I have a dm500s too with enigma 1 and compiled newest build from git (with pvr now in it).
Did anyone have new infos for us (and any other enigma 1 users)?

The vu+ addon only works with enigma2 based boxes.
