Solving the problem of the locale of language in some versions of enigma2

Missing interface languages on your Enigma2 box? Restore the full set of locales with two small files and the DCC program — a quick step-by-step fix with downloads.

On some Enigma2 images, only a limited set of interface languages is available. This guide explains how to restore the full set of locales using two small files and the DCC (Dreambox Control Center) program.

What You Need

Download the two attachments at the end of this guide and decompress them on your PC. You will then copy their contents to your receiver over FTP using the DCC program.

Step 1 — Copy the locale file

From the first attachment (locale), open the folder named po and copy the file inside it to the following path on your receiver:

/usr/share/enigma2

This file contains all of the available languages.

Step 2 — Copy the Language component

From the second attachment (Language), copy the file named Language.py to the following path:

/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Components

Step 3 — Restart

Restart the receiver. All of the languages should now be available.

Downloads

locale — copy the file inside its po folder to /usr/share/enigma2.

Language — copy Language.py to /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Components.
