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

[dsayers]

Sorry I'm not sure what you mean. So you want nick jr swapping in the cable kids bouquet? Or the whole bouquet swapping

I may need some help with the discovery channels and eurosport when they get removed from sky but I'm still not sure about doing this as the custom.xml is mainly for swapping sky hd channels not sd versions aswell.

At least Eurosport is all HD, so that won't need doing. I will be doing the other channels on my custom mix. SD works the same as HD, I already add the 2 NDTV channels that are on Cable and not Sky to 867 & 868

Thanks I meant more for adding cable sd channels as some users find it hard to distinguish between what channels are sat and what's cable and have issues with recording. My normal reply is record sd on sat in a sky bouquet and watch on the last all channels bouquet (vm). Adding cable sd channels to the swap may add more confusion for a user to identify what channel is on sat or cable while using epg.

I know channel selection screen has service type icons it would be great if we could have similar for graphical epg

Whole bouquet please buddy

I'm not sure why you want to but it's not something I plan to do. You can do it try it and see what you can do you will need to find every vm channel number and add it to swap with the sky versions.

Example

<insert target="615" source="715" provider="cable_uk_virgin" ></insert> <!-- nick jr hd -->


Target is the sky channel number you want to add it to and source is the vm channel number. Do that for every channel in the kids section.

I only want nick jr swapping mate, cable signal is often playing up and so my kids watch this alot. When cable not working the channel is blank, I know I can go to sky bouquet but that defeats having the custom file. I'm am sure no one else would have an issue as there both in sd

 

[dsayers]

Sorry I'm still not sure what you mean the custom.xml is used so you only need sky uk bouquets so you should be using the sky bouquets only nick jr hd has been swapped for virgin all the rest should be sky

Nick Jnr HD is not available on vm, so when my cable isn't working it knocks out this channel because it is set to use vm nick Jnr sd.

 

[dsayers]

Ok thanks I'll remove the swap tomorrow

Sorted Nick Jnr sd for sat is on 637 so I added it to 615 and deleted 637
Reboot box or run the script then rescan abm

 

[duoduo]

Tried reboot method but not changed, please can you let me know how to run the script method?

 

[dsayers]

Post 26 but ftp the updatecustom.sh to usr/scripts vix added the s a while ago.

Just double check reboot box and rescan if not try the script.

If that doesn't work can you ftp usr/lib/engma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins open the sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml
At the top you should see today's date

<!-- Dsyers Custom mix xml file-->
-<!-- DATE 20170129 -->

Ok redone the custom mix added available RoI channels to the end of the sky uk entertainment bouquet. If using the plugin reboot box or run the script if your using that.

Now press menu, setup, service searching, AutoBouquetsMarker, configure ensure include not indext channels is yes green to save
Update config files
Now start scan

You should have extra Irish channels from 286 on wards also added various Made in channels on 993 plus (this may change if I find empty slots)

Downloaded the file on post #1, installed and ran ABM, channels listing worked great but it's not pulling EPG on CABLE HD channels.
I've ran crossEPG and EPG refresher still not pulling through.
Any pointers please?

Please could you swap Al Jazeera (channel 514) for the HD version (channel 17)

 

[kokojnr]

Since I installed the plugin, my receiver crashes every morning during ABM SCAN.
IS there any solutions please?
