Does everybody don't know how to help me? I'm waiting for any clues from couple of days, and there's no answer. I don't have any idea what should I do now.

Is there any chance to do something with this box, or I should put it into trash?

Thanks for interesting in this topic is0-mick!

I've done the same things before you posted, and finally I get JTAG working! In my case the JTAG_enable pins are connected together with a resitor, and on both pins is 3.3V, and there is no connection with the path on SMP chip. So I connected the path with 3.3V source, and it works.
The whole bootloader is readead:
Code: [Select]

I've attached the images extracted from the bootloader, there are included the images with gear wheel and red x sign that I wrote in my first post.

Besides, from some interesting things in the bootloader I found url to the certificate: http://www.scientificatlanta.com/security/pki/crl/msiptve/CA00024_000.crl.htm

It is very plausible that the OS didn't have been fully downloaded yet in the box, I don't know the past of this box.
What are the symptoms of being in disaster recovery mode? If think it is in this mode, because I can run bootloader dumper in every moment after power on.

What are the next steps that I must made to get it working? :) It is possible in my situation to get it working?

For the disk content, it's all that I found on it.

I have shorted the JTAG_enable jumper, but with no results, the same communicate.
What decides that I must wire an enable pin direcly to the SMP, it is possible to solder to that small circuit?

Does anybody have an idea to make something with the box?

Hello!

From about two weeks I'm owner of Swisscom Bluewin-TV KMM3010-SC-B Set-up box, and I want to make something with it.
In this moment, this box is not very useful, because when I switch power on, only what I get on the screen is a grey gear wheel and something like a progress bar at the bottom, and nothing else.
On the front display while switching on, for a less than second blinks "Starting" message and then only unset clock sign: --:--

I've had an original 160GB HDD from it, but I've gave it to somebody. I've copied all files from it (the file is attached to this post). Now I found 20GB HDD. And my question is: should I make any partitions or the box will make it all?

After few minutes nevermind if it's connected to the internet or not, the screen is showing red x sign, and on VFD display is showing "Connect Fail" message with blinking REC sign. After that in serial console I received "HALTING" message.
Full output from console is:
Code: [Select]

xosPc0 serial#97d634be075d6ca73075760a104d533b subid 0xc4
xenv cs2 ok

I've build a JTAG, but I'm receiving this:

            /length:XXXXXXXX ... custom length (in HEX)

Halting Processor ... <Processor did NOT enter Debug Mode!> ... Done

The JTAG is checked many times, all seems to be good. I don't know why it's not working.

When it's connected to ethernet card, all what tcpdump sniffed is saved in a file in the attachment.

Is there any posibility to make something useful with the box? It have a potential, but I don't have now any ideas how to run it.

It's a good topic to join in. I have a Swisscom Bluewin TV-Box, and I'm trying to do with it something else than IPTV, because I don't have access to the service.
I.e. like vambiro said: streaming video, or playing h.264/xvid videos from usb stick, and recording video from external sources.
I'm wondering if something from this is available to do on that set-up box.
