Gbox Control for Win32
Version 1.9j - 01/05/2007

--> What is it?

This software is a gbox GUI for Win32.
It allows you to run gbox hidden, it runs silently in the systray and you can control gbox with this.
It also allows you to see your online peers and the cards available.
It is not a configuration tool, you have to configure gbox yourself.
You have a nice web interface so you can manage your gbox from anywhere using your web browser.

--> How to use?

Place it in the same folder as gboxx86.exe (this is the gbox executable) and run it.
You can place a shortcut on the startup menu so it loads when windows starts up.

--> Can I distribute this with the gbox software?

No, you cannot, gbox is not public and you should not distribute it in public.
Respect the developers, if you have it then keep it private.
You should distribute this tool without any gbox files.

I am NOT associated with the gbox developers team in any way.
So dont look for me if you have any requests or questions about gbox.

--> How to translate to your language
Since GboxControl is now multi-language, you can translate it to your own language.
You can translate the program and the webinterface.


To translate the program : 

  1 - Edit the file "gboxcontrol_lang.ini".
  2 - You will see a section with name '[English]', copy this and all lines below until the next language.
  3 - Tranlate each line from english to your language.

To translate the web-interface :

  1 - Go to "webinterface\www\languages".
  2 - Duplicate the "english.php" file.
  3 - Rename "english.php" to the new language (eg: polish.php)
  4 - Edit the new file and translate each line to your language.


If you have translations, please upload them on www.dvb-upload.com with an easy to identify name, I will see them.

Have fun,
satanuke
