[ABM-MISC] Can we add the Irish sky sports 5 channel to the sat_282_sky_uk.xml

[dsayers]

yes thats worked thank you Ill try and get better at this lol

 

[dsayers]

spoke too soon if i only want to add the one channel like in my custommix ive added ss5 roi to 499 but it shows it as sky sports 1 ROI



it works fine adding all the channels but for 1 it just names it as sky sports 1 ROI

Because you've changed the index. In my code channel name is 1 + index.

 

[dsayers]

Yes i changed it too suit

SS_ROI_ID = [1312]
for service in sorted(customised["video"].keys()):
    if "channel_id" in customised["video"][service] and customised["video"][service]["channel_id"] in SS_ROI_ID:
    	ID_index = SS_ROI_ID.index(customised["video"][service]["channel_id"])
    	customised["video"][service]["interactive_name"] = "%d Sky Sports %d ROI" % (ID_index + 499, ID_index + 1)
    	customised["video"][499 + ID_index] = customised["video"][service]
    	del customised["video"][service]
		
]]>

 

[Huevos]

In your code:

ID_index + 1

Index = 0 so 0 + 1 = 1

 

[dsayers]

Or should I change 1 + index to 5 + index

 

[Huevos]

You don't need that it is just a static import of one channel. For me I needed channel number and name of 5 channels.

I am having a real issue trying to get my head around this?
I just want to get the SS ROI channels for the 3pm kick offs but just dont have a clue how to get it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Where does stuff go etc?
This is not for cable tho is it? I am just running normal Sky through my VU DUO?
Thanks in advance.

Ok. In ABM Config menu, turn on "not indexed" channels. Now when you do a scan the RoI versions of Sky Sports will be in the "not indexed" section. i.e. they will have a channel number above 1050.

Some people are not happy with that and want the channels in the Sport section and marked as RoI. If that is what you want, unzip the attached file and place the .xml file that it contains in
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/custom

This renames the channels "Sky Sports 1-5 RoI, and places them 495-499.

Wont he still need the updated pyo files from the other thread?

No. That was about being able to read swap data.

 

[smuggler]

Thanks for that Huevos, works perfectly for me. :thumbsup:

 

[Dan626]

That has worked a treat, thanks a million plus I have all the HD swapped channels to.
Great help once again from this forum.

Is it better to have the auto ABM update turned off when using this custom file for the sky sports Ireland channels or will it not affect it?

 

[abu baniaz]

When you add Custom mix files, you are telling ABM what to do. You can run ABM without a problem.

However, you no longer need the file, using the updated provider file will achieve this. You can update the config use the update feature within ABM.

 

[shanks2016]

Thanks for the quick reply, so just to confirm after adding the custom file the auto update feature will not affect the placement of the sky sports Ireland channels on 495-499? As I have previously been told that if during an update for example some channel numbers happen to change to the ones that we have specified for sky sports Ireland ie 495-499 that this is when there can be a problem.

If you have a CustomMix file with 495 to 499 Sky Sport RoI ones take them out as like Abu has mentioned previously, these have been included in the latest Sky UK xml file which you can update via the ABM section.

No, it's not going to be added as a default channel. It is in the not indexed section if you have that enabled. If you want to move it do it by channel id in CustomMix.

:roflmao: wouldn't that have saved a lot of time?

This started as a personal request and progressed from there.

The channels are now added in the provider.xml file. If one of those channel numbers starts to be used by an officially placed channel the RoI channel will not be moved and will remain in it's original position.
