[ABM-MISC] sat and cable custom mix updater plugin (BETA)

[Andy_Hazza]

Hi,

I've installed your AutoBouquet hoping it would fix some issues i've had. I was hoping it would replace my first two channels 101 - BBC TWO HD and 102 BBC Two sd with BBC ONE HD and BBC TWO HD respectively but to no avail. Can you suggest why this would be?

What image are you on? Menu > Information > About

As requested by Andy_Hazza what image are you using? abm has added an option to download the latest providers file http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?51976-Providers-Download-Script post 12. My plugin doesn't affect the latest providers file it just swaps the unavailable sky hd channels with virgin hd channels.

What's everybody's thought's of downloading this vai a crontimer so it can download weekly?

 

[dsayers]

Does anyone know what this is?



Someone on vix using Edision os mini has uninstalled the plugin then tried to reinstall but is getting that error

Try rebooting. I see that message when the opkg is locked awaiting a restart.

 

[dsayers]

Thanks I'll tell him I thought it might of been with the post inst and preinst files ive added

Small update on this I've managed to update a script to download the sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml file so you can run it using a crontimer to download weekly, daily, monthly etc

Unzip updatecustom.sh.zip and Ftp the updatecustom.sh to usr/scripts create the script folder if you haven't got one.

On box press
Menu, setup, vix, scriptrunner green to start the script


Now we need to set a crontimer to run the script


Menu > Timers > CronTimers (you may be prompted to install 'busybox-cron' - install this - box will restart)


Add a Cron Timer by pressing the Green button


Run How Often ? - Daily
Time To Execute Command Or Script - Whatever you prefer, I have 00:00
Command Type - predefined
In command to run you should see the updatecustom.sh
Press green to save then check if it says start on autostart if not yellow to start and blue to autostart
Now reboot box thats it it should download the custommix.xml daily

Script can be downloaded here View attachment updatecustom.sh.zip

Hi I have been using this custommix since you put it on. I have an issue that 2 channels are the wrong name 113 says BBC Olympics 6 HD and 303 say BBC Olympics 7 HD. The chanels are correct but the names wrong. Can you help

 

[dsayers]

So 303 is showing movies but the name is wrong? mmm ive had this reported by someone else I cant figure out whats going on I use a different custommix that adds channel numbers on epg using hacks but the inserts are the same Ill have a look

Hi can you please try this custommix View attachment sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.rar unzip and ftp the sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml to /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/custom and re scan abm this has the hacks removed to add sky sports roi evan tough I cant see that been the issue

 

[duoduo]

Do you need to add republic of Ireland in ABM for the Irish sky sports to show buddy

 

[dsayers]

not for sky sports 1 to 5 Ireland but you do for eir sports just follow the reccommended settings in the first post roi enabled no to generate bouquets

 

[duoduo]

Sorry being dim, so this now changes sky sports UK 1-5 to sky sports Roi 1-5?

 

[dsayers]

no sky sports 1 to 5 roi is on 495+ with roi at the end of the name

I download and replaced the custommix.xml with the new one. Unfortunately it didnt swap the Vm chanels in at all now. I have gone back to the original it works again but the channel names are still wrong. I'm sure it will sort out eventually

 

[dsayers]

Ok ill check you can just reboot your box and it will redownload the original xml file or run the script on post 25

I've had a look at this and I can't work it out I've also updated config files that removes the Olympics channels but the names are still wrong. If I use this custom.xml

 https://github.com/davesayers2014/AutoBouquetsMaker/blob/master/AutoBouquetsMaker/providers/sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml

It's fine the inserts are the same but the hacks are different to add channel numbers on epg.

 

[dsayers]

Also removing the hacks altogether gives the same result

 

[lincsat]

Go to the full list of Cable services, highlight a BBC Olympic channel and press Menu and remove entry, repeat for all obsolete BBC Olympic channels and then try ABM again. I'm guessing that VM is reusing the obsolete channel ID's

 

[dsayers]

Thanks I'll give that a try it's odd that the custommix with channel numbers works but without gitves the error
