UKCvS AutoBouquets E2 by LraiZer BETA.

[Larry-G]

Yep, that is how I have it set up at the moment. Was just wondering why the feature doesn't work.

no idea as to be honest i always disable the show numbers feature on my boxes. also depends on which version you are using. The ViX modified version from our feeds or the Authors own version as uploaded in the first post of this thread..

I am using the 30th September ipk posted by LRaizer. What version date is the Vix feed one? It doesn't say unless I install it.

 

[Larry-G]

No idea as i'm not near a box to check but it's a older version than the last one posted by LraiZer.

Vix is one of the first versions.
Channel numbering was working until very recently, but I turned it off as it just messed up my EPG

It has been said repeatedly: the plugin 'AutoBouquets' that's on the feeds is not the one in this thread; it has been amended by Andy (and is still WiP).
And the 2 don't go together, so either use the one in post 1 or the one from the feeds (and de-install one before installing the other).

Probably best to create a different support thread for each then ?.

I was just asking what version of the plugin the vix feed is based on.

Well, in fact that doesn't matter very much, as it has gone it's own development way.

 

[Rahat786786]

How can we tell when the vix version was last updated?

 

[Rob van der Does]

Only by looking at the GiT (commits).

I would not worry about that, development has not stopped but we have taken a different path from the author with our version working with other members of the OE-Alliance, when it's ready a announcement will be made. for now the version on the feeds will remain until the new one is ready to be released.

 

[Rahat786786]

Could you explain how I can do that?

Never mind, got it.

 

[LraiZer]

here is latest AutoBouquets E2 plugin for testing.

9-10-2012
now also detects and parses the hidden data channel names.
add autobouquets selection menu to service searching menu.
also adds the channel epg numbers to the official bouquet.
some other potential bug fixes.

add autobouquets selection menu to service searching menu.

Do you think you could eliminate the need for a first scan so this could be run on a virgin install (like the Fastscan plugin)? Obviously you need a transponder to download the data from, but couldn't that whole process be built into the plugin?

 

[Rahat786786]

Channel numbering works in this version but will it be possible to have it like this:

101 - BBC rather than 101 BBC

I prefer it that way and I think others do too.

I'd expect that to be pretty low down the priority list. Whilst nice, added functionality is much nicer since you only need to scan once. Unless of course you're constantly re-flashing as a beta tester . For Joe Bloggs, more functionality is nicer.

I'd rather have it update the picon names or something than eliminate an initial scan. It could use the Zoka picon names and add shortcuts to them using the channel references.

Great plugin btw, I was loyal to SGTFlipFlops settings but this is definitely going on any box I touch now :thumbsup:

We all have different priorities. Let's see what the plugin author has to say.

I use both the SGTFlipFlop bouquets and the Autobouquets plugin set to auto update every morning to keep every thing nice and upto date.

 

[LraiZer]

first run on virgin image without needing an intialization scan is on todo list. picon generation is only on my personal todo list, but will be available in a test script as i dont intend adding picon updating to the plugin.

ive had already planned on adding some sort of picon updating at some point, but only for personal use as the main objective of this plugin is to be maintance free. there is no intention on maintaining a unique named picon set to use with the plugin. i was going to rename a picon set using the each channel's epg Channel_ID as this is a four digit unique number that remains static for each service, even if the channel tsid, sid changes.

it may be worth your while spending a couple of hours creating a custom.txt file that mimics SgtFlipFlops settings?
each time you run the plugin you will automatically have latest flipflop bouquet channel ordering.

TIP:
you can even have official channel zapping AND custom channel ordering!
set option "Use HD First Bouquet = no"
run autobouquets with custom channel ordering = no
save /etc/engima2/userbouquet.ukcvs00.tv file to PC
run autobouquets with custom channel ordering = yes
copy userbouquet.ukcvs00.tv from PC back to box to overwrite the current one.
you now have custom channel ordering in your bouquets and official keypress channel zapping in first bouquet.
