=== Why are there so less onlineupdates for Gemini? ===
 
There are some reasons why we release Gemini images mostly complete:
 
* there are not often important changes which should be updatet and its always work to do.
 
* entering the Gemini Extensions into the CVS is not that simple.
 
* evereything we release for the boxes has to be checked by our betatesters. This takes plenty of time and it's the reason for, why we don't let them test every little thing again and again.

=== Why am I not able to install newer Geminis on my Dreambox? ===
 
In newer images, [http://www.dream-multimedia-tv.de Dream-Multimedia] created a "Clone-Protection". This may cause, that newe images can't be installed or the boxes get useless. If it appers at an "Original Dreambox", [http://www.dream-multimedia-tv.de Dream-Multimedia] will help you for sure, to exclude further bugs.

=== why do i get no help from the "Gemini-Team" to circumvent the copy protection? ===
 
Because we are a Dreambox-Board and supporting users, who have bought an Original Dreambox. The Gemini Images are made for Original Dreamboxes and also are thought for them. We are against Cloneboxes, if they are distributet with software, which was not developed for them. Owners of other boxes should go to the manufacturer of their box and ask for sotware, developed for them.

=== Why is there no HDMI output? ===
 
 
Oh my god! If anyone is asking that question, he doesn't know what he's talking or is working for the movie industrie!
 
HDMI has been developed by the movie industrie especially for private use.
 
They are afraid, that every copy protection is not save forever, so they wrote it directly into the HDMI specifications. Who wants voluntarily a copy protection in his dreambox?
 
 
For further informathins please take a look at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hdmi Wikipedia].
