Editing SD / HD channel numbers since $ky killed off HD

[m1nz]

How are the section bouquest created. Is there no way to edit them

 

[DaMacFunkin]

You can edit the sections, you can even add your own sections but remember a channel is allocated to a bouquet before channel swap runs, so for example you can't hide adult section then move sky sports 1 hd to an adult section number and expect it to be hidden because it won't, it has already been allocated to the sports section.

Transfer it. You will be asked if you want to replace existing one, say yes.

(Same thing as deleting existing modified one and then transferring new modified one). Hope that makes sense.

Yes it makes sense, it didn't ask me to overwrite that's why I asked and now for some reason my sports section is in meltdown lol I have lost sky sports news sd and sky sports 1 sd. I have tried running scan again but no change. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

ABM was designed to mimic the broadcaster placement of channels. The sections are decided by the LCN. It was not intended for user customisation with regards to moving channels around. You can trick it by swapping channels around including non existent ones too.

You may be better off using Lraizer's version and use the custom sort feature. You can then decide on what each bouquet contains and in which order.

Is there a way to setup ABM so it has the FTA HD channels lined up first but the next in the order the SD channels?

 

[duoduo]

Don't suppose anyone as an updated channel xml after today please. I would use ABM but don't want to lose the hd channels I have ie ITV, bbc1 and bbc2.

If you use the SD region, they will still be there, just different numbers. You also get the additional option of FTA HD bouquet. Granted that they willl not be at top of the entertainment bouquet

Thanks for your response abu bit ideally and if it's available I want whatever I can get in hd to be shown in main bouquet.

 

[abu baniaz]

Save me checking, post back channel numbers of remaining HD channels when you use an SD region. Both HD and SD numbers please.

 

[duoduo]

I think there is only ITV, bbc1 bbc2 cbeebies which are now in HD mate. The channel numbers I have is 103,101,102,614 but I don't think this is what you mean is it?

 

[Martincape]

Think he means pal, for BBC1, BBC2 and ITV1:

SD versions are 101, 102 and 103
HD versions are 141, 142 and 178

 

[duoduo]

BBC1 HD 141
BBC2 is showing at 102 so doesn't need changing
ITV1 HD is 178
Cbeebies HD is again showing in correct place

 

[abu baniaz]

Need to use the SD region.
Need names and both numbers next to it. Sorry would do it myself but have a cold and thumping headache.

 

[duoduo]

Thanks for your help mate.

Bbc1 sd 101 bbc1hd 141
Bbc2 sd 102 bbc2 hd 142
ITV sd 103 ITV HD 178
Cbeebies sd 614 cbeebies hd 624

Is this OK? In not sure if there are other like bbc3 hd, itv2 hd etc that will work?

 

[DaMacFunkin]

I will get onto it tonight, i was at a meeting till late last night, i might over the weekend also try to manipulate sd region so Channels 1-4 are hd and all the HD channels move way way out of site.

 

[abu baniaz]

The xml in Judge's thread works on HD region. (The HD channels are swapped over {not moved} ).

Works perfectly. Viva SD

Cheers Judge, great job bud.

 

[mike_6480]

I've tried this and it doesn't work for me. The new xml doesn't appear in ABM so I can't select it

 

[Stanman]

Are you putting it in the right location?

It needs to be unrared and the .xml file needs to go to folder.

Did 3 boxes and all worked fine.
