UKCvS AutoBouquets E2 by LraiZer BETA.

[LraiZer]

I have been having a good old mess with this script this evening, sorry LraiZer

The only downside is that in each of the generated bouquets there are blank lines where the placeholders were placed to keep the channel numbering correct.

no need to be sorry, its was made to be poked about with and modified to suit your own needs. the main reason i didnt add placeholders to the category bouquets is because they look terrible and are also be a pain to navigate during general usage. the --UK Bouquet-- channel list placeholder bouquet containing everthing in correct position so that remote key presses are official is enough for me. the rest of the category bouquets are not ruined by any annoying spaces.

im not sure your category placeholder hack would work in the next update though. you will be able to set channels to any position you want so that it generates your current favourite bouquet set.

I agree with you there, the gaps in each of the generted bouquets do look terrible..

I was having a look at some of the code behind the channel list screen and I reckon the blanks could be ommitted, it is just building up a list with the data pulled from each bouquet. I reckon it could be inspected and if it is a placeholde then just skip it and also pregress the number.. It needs some more investigation though but not tonight :goodnight:

Once again, thanks again for a really neat plugin, great work!

I don't know why that is mate but am base in East Anglia

if your in East Anglia then im not sure you should be pressing West Anglia?
wouldnt Norfolk HD or Essex HD give you the east bouquets, but i still think they will be meridian. had a look in the stream data and the only option to have both BBC 1 East (E) and ITV1 HD London is to setect "London / Essex HD"

 

[Stanman]

I'ii do that mate, not to fussed as don't watch match local news.

Out of interest, which would I need to pull BBC East (W) variant, as thats my local. For some peculiar reason Anglia is down as W, S and E but I always used W as am west side of the area.

 

[LraiZer]

i think only Tring HD and West Anglia HD would give you BBC 1 East (W)

 

[Stanman]

Cheers buddy, will give those a try.

@ LraiZer:

Could you use the correct plugin name next time?
The architecture should be separated by '_' not by '-' (so the correct name is 'enigma2-plugin-extensions-autobouquets-e2-201208212300_all.ipk'). If the naming is incorrect, the plugin will not be shown by the plugin browser.

Will this also add new channels to existing bouquets when scanning? The Sky UK bouquet generated has adult channels which I removed but the channel numbering then gets messed up. Tried fixing with DBE but it gives errors when loading the bouquet and messes the numbering further.

 

[Mr. Mister]

You can either replace the adult channels with place holders in DB Edit..

Or you can set a parental control on your receiver..

This will leave your receiver that no one will be able to watch the adult channels unless they have the 4 digit pin code to access them..

All the channels in my 28.2 east bouquets have a built in parental control toggle.. So parental control is easiest to us.. As the toggles are already in place..

hope this helps..

Just updated my vu duo with vix 3.0 so took the opportunity to install this autobouquets plugin.
For channels 1-100, I used to use my freeview dvb-t channels.
Is there a way I can still continue to do this? And updates not to override them.


Many thanks

Send your freeview channels alomg with a 28.2E channel list and than run the plugin and delete the 282E you sent across and just keep the one created by the plugin.

it will not delete the freeview but as you want those 1 - 100 you will not have sly numbering without adding 100 to it IE bbc1 201

Hi guys,

Got this plugin up and running now and it's great. I wondered, is there a script I can use in Cron Manager to run the plugin automatically every couple of days?

Cheers

not available as yet.. But if you talk nice to the author.. Then you never know what he might do for you..

Lraizer, what do you think? This is an excellent plugin and I'm sure I speak for many others here when I say thank you for all of your hard work!! Is there any scope for an auto update function or a script we could run via Cron Manager? This really would be the icing on the cake!!

Cheers

just edit the defaults in autobouquets_e2.sh script to your default local area.

eg.
DATA="4101"
REGION="07"

look in AutoBouquets plugin.py file for your local DATA and REGION codes.

copy autobouquets_e2.sh to /etc/cron/scripts folder and select it from crons manager in tspanel on a tiimer of your choice?

@ LraiZer

got your plugin working on the db7020..using the pli image

i think my issue was that dvbsnoop was already on the nemisis image, where as the pli image did not have dvbsnoop, untill i loaded the plugin..or am i talking tripe?

In ViX this is very easy done:
1- copy /usr/script/autobouquets_e2.sh to /usr/scripts/autobouquets_e2.sh
2- open Cronmanager and go to 'add': now you see the job and you can make the desired settings;
3- click 'save'

That's all folks!

One question in regards to a cron job for this. Would you not need to do a regular channel scan every so often to ensure you have all the channels needed for the bouquet?

No, the only requirement for the plugin to run is that the box is tuned to a 28.2 channel.

I think that a scan is needed Rob, going by the instructions in LraiZer's script anyway!

If that would be the case, the whole purpose of the plugin has gone. It's supposed to update all the needed items itself. Only the very first time you run it, a scan might be needed to make sure the transponder providing the Bouquet Association Table is available.
And LraiZer himself stated that using a cronjob to run the plugin should work; if a scan would be needed first this wouldn't be possible.

Just my 2 cents........
