10 years of Enigma by Dream
Open Source operating system now well established

Lünen, 6. October 2010. This year, Dream Multimedia, the leading supplier of Linux-based set-top boxes, is celebrating the tenth anniversary of its Enigma operating system. It is a decade since Dream first presented its software for Linux-based set-top boxes. Since then, the system’s successor, Enigma2, has been introduced successfully by Dream.

In 2000, the company presented the DM7000, the first Dreambox to be equipped with the Enigma operating system. In the years that followed, the company made the Open Source project what it is today: a stable, powerful software platform for set-top boxes, combining all the strengths of digital media usage in a single system.

Six years later, in the DM7025, Dream launched the Enigma2 system. Today, many producers of set-top boxes have integrated Enigma or Enigma2 in their Linux-based equipment. Under the leadership of Dream Multimedia, Enigma has become the leading Linux operating system for set-top boxes. In future, too, Dream will continue to be instrumental in driving forward the development of the Enigma system.

Dream spokesperson Alpaslan Karasu: „Enigma is the core of our software development. With its Enigma Open Source project, Dream has succeeded like no other company in fully exploiting the capabilities of Linux in a digital home entertainment environment. The fact that other competitors are now also using the benefits of this Open Source project is seen as an appreciation of our work.“
