It also features one DVI to HDMi Cable, two USB 2.0, one eSATA and one 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet interfaces. It has an OLED display.

dreambox DM800 and dreambox DM8000) use GStreamer as a multimedia framework. This configuration encourages enthusiasts to modify its functions, particularly in the form of so-called images.

Alternative firmware

Many alternative firmware, also called images, are available. They are all based on the default Enigma or Enigma2, but have
extra features. A few of the most popular[citation needed] are:

BoxMan
Dream Forum
iCVS
LT
Merlin
MiLo (development stopped in 2009, joined PLi)
Nabilosat
NewNigma2
OoZooN
Peter Pan
PLi
OpenPLi
ronaldd (development stopped in 2008)
Sif
The Gemini Project
Dream Elite BH/Pure Flash
Note: Official test firmwares are available from Dreambox Update.

Plug-ins
There are also many 3rd party addons & plugins available that will extend the functionality of the Dreambox too. Some plugins

are model specific, while others run all boxes. Plugins such as Jukebox and SHOUTcast playback, also external XMLTV guides, a web browser are available, and a VLC media player interface for on demand streaming media. Games are also abundant like PacMan and Tetris.

In addition, unofficial third-party conditional access software modules (CAMs or emulators) are widely circulated on the

Internet that emulate the CA systems developed by VideoGuard, Irdeto Access, Conax, Nagravision, Viaccess and other proprietary vendors. Many Dreambox owners use these softcams in conjunction with card sharing software to access pay TV services without a subscription card inserted in every connected box. This practice may be illegal in some jurisdictions.

Most popular software cams (client and/or servers):

CCcam
GBox (with CardServCS cardreader and CS2Gbox CS protocol)
Mbox
NewCam
NewCS
OSCam
SCam
Sbox
Camd3 (cs357 over tcp, cs378 over udp)
Newcamd (Betad and Cardserver cardreader, Cardspider cs protocol)
Chameleon2 (NewCS P2P protocol)
EvoCamd
MaGicCamd
Radegast
MPCardServer (cardreader)
OpenCam
CamX (with ServerNG cardreader)
RQCam
Nasscam SPCS
Bbox (GBox clone)
Tcam
XCam
Firecam
DreamCryptCam (official cam Dream Multimedia)

The combination of third-party developers and network connectivity which facilitates card sharing, makes Dreambox use
particularly common among enthusiasts and those who intend to obtain services without payment. Third-party software for this purpose is neither officially endorsed nor supported by Dream Multimedia and voids the official warranty; however, unofficial web sites support a very large community of enthusiasts.
