[ABM-DVB-S/S2] ZoomZoomLuke's Custom 28.2 xml file

[Casterina]

Is there any difference between Luke's Github file and the 19 beta in first post?

 

[mcquaim]

Is there a ZZL Sky Irl XML or does this require us to create this ourselves?

Sorry if this is covered before, I've never used this method before..

The xml has ROI listed.
If you wanted UK and ROI channels then we would need to have separte provider files. Numbers would need to be edited as well. Shall we continue on the other side?

I tried the Rep Ireland location in the Sky UK (SD) provider and while it does remove the non-clearing HD channels the order of the channels in the bouquets is not correct now.

In the Sports bouquet I now have:
Sky Sports News HQ
Sky Sports 1
Eurosport
BT Sport 1
BT Sport 2
At The Races
ESPN
Extreme Sports
Chelsea TV
Setanta Ireland
Setanta Sports 1
BT Sport 1 HD
BT Sport 2 HD
ESPN HD
Sky Sports 2
Sky Sports Darts
BoxNation
Sky Sports 4
Sky Sports 5
...
...
...

Maybe this can't be helped?

@Mcquaim, can you try this. I'll leave it to you to sort the HD on top and swaps etc.

(We were using the HD bouquet ID instead of SD one.)

@Luke, I have submitted a change to your file too.

That is working a treat Abu, thanks a mill :thumbsup: It keeps the order of the original ROI bouquet, I will worry about the swaps etc. if required, thanks again!!

@abu baniaz is there any difference between Luke's Github file and the 19 beta in first post or both the same?

 

[abu baniaz]

@Casterina, minor effective dfference with Rep Of Ireland bouquet. Rest are cosmetic. Apart from ROI region chaneg it is already in image.

Thanks for gentle nudge, I'll attach edited file to first post.

I'll hold of pushing the update until I can get confirmation either way that SBO HD is off.

Guess we will find out Sunday 25 January WWE Royal Rumble on SBO HD

 

[^^COMPASS^^]

Sky Box Office HD is still fine for me

 

[Andy_Hazza]

Yeah I can confirm SBO HD was fine for me too. [emoji4]

 

[intrigue]

Can anyone point me in the right direction - I loaded the xml on to my box a couple months back, never really paid attention but just realised my ITV HD is showing for the Birmingham area, whereas I am westcountry. SD channel shows westcountry.

Thanks

Could someone look at adding the not-indexed modifications as per these changes. I tried but did not succeed.

I'm currently looking into this, i've been testing for the past week or so... should have the modifications completed shortly.

By enabing "not-indexed" channels in the expert menu, we should be able to slot the Irish Sports channels into empty UK LCN slots.

I like the sound of that. That would be great if that could be done

 

[zoomzoomluke]

right this should do it. was doing my head in trying to allow us to use previously blacklisted locations, turns out its probably going to be more trouble than it's worth.

Edit the file with the following to get Setanta and RTE One and RTE2 HD in the Sky UK channel listings.

########################################################################
#
# format: "channel name": number,
#
# example: "Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224,
#
########################################################################
channels_to_add = {
"Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224,
}

How do I do this please?

 

[zoomzoomluke]

How do I do this please?

Download the file. Edit it in Notepad++, Sublime Text or any other proper text editor of your choice. NOT windows notepad.

On line 187 add the following

"Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224,

So line 178 to 188 will become the following:

# start: slot some extra channels into vacant slots in the provider list
########################################################################
#
# format: "channel name": number,
#
# example: "Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224,
#
########################################################################
channels_to_add = {
"Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224,
}

Save the file and then upload to you box in the following location:

/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/providers/sat_282_sky_uk_zzl.xml

Ensure "Setup mode == expert" in the ABM settings.
Change "Include 'not indexed' channels" to Yes

Do a scan and all should be working.

The XML is now in the feeds so the next software update will have the changes included but you will need to edit the XML file by hand to get the merging of the two providers.

I've tried the above but keeps crashing my Vu+ Solo2. It'll be an error on my part doing the editing of the XML file I'm sure.
I went to the link (github) and saved the file, then opened up the XML file in Notepad++.
This is where I get confused (I think)
As per your instructions above, you say line 187 add the following? That is already in the file;

# example: "Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224,

And you then say;

So line 178 to 188 will become the following:


HTML Code:
# start: slot some extra channels into vacant slots in the provider list
########################################################################
#
# format: "channel name": number,
#
# example: "Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224,
#
########################################################################
channels_to_add = {
"Setanta Ireland": 423,"Setanta Sports1": 424,"RTE One": 161,"RTE2 HD": 224, << This was blank in the file so I have inserted this line??
}

Can some help please, as I'm just a little confused.

Thanks for your great work zoomzoomluke. :thumbsup:
