[Mut@nt] HD51 How to remove extra channels

[ccs]

I can't understand why you're not taking the advice given in post #19.

It's not that I am not taking the said advice, more because for now I have hidden sections which I don't need etc. Also I do not like doing something if I am not confident in doing.
I may well look at that when I have more time to do as it says.

Hi,
I would not clean the channel list and remove all unwanted services because the next time you do a channel search they are all back then. Create favorites/bouquets and put your programs in here then you do not have to care about the rest of the services.

I created a Favourites bouquet in OpenWebif, but I can't see it, even after refreshing the browser, shoul I be able to.
I assume once it does show up, I can then add channels to it.

Thanks

There is an existing favourites bouquet. Are you sure there was no clash of names?

No, I am not sure at all. As I created it in OpenWebif, wouldn't it have told me there was a duplicate name.

How can I find out.

Where can you not see it?
On your box? On the computer in Webif Bouquet Editor?

If on the box try -> Menu -> setup -> EPG -> graphical EPG -> show bouquet on launch

If on the PC - in Webif Bouquet Editor
Add Bouquet and chose a name for yourself (freds_fav) and press OK
You should now have an empty list called freds_fav
You now have to populate this empty list
i) Click on the name freds_fav to highlight it
ii) Now go to Freesat entry in the provides list (not the list that includes freds_fav) and highlight it
iii) You should get a list of all the channels
iv) Scroll down until you find BBC1 for the region of your choice
v) Highlight it and press the add to bouquet button.

Quit Webif and go to your box
You should now find a bouquet aclled freds_fav that has only BBC1 in the list

Go back to Webif/Bouquet Editor and repeat steps i) to v) above for each of the channels you want in your own favourite list

Note: once the list is populated in Webif/Bouquet Editor you can re-arrage the order of your newly created list by highlighting a channel name and dragging it to another postion in the list

In ii) above you can substaitute BskyB for Freesat (Both Freesat and Sky share the same cluster of satellites and free to air channels.)

Hi,
there is an option in the settings called allow multiple bouquets which must be enabled.

Did you hide the favourites bouquet/non-ABM bouquets when configuring ABM?

Not intentionally I didn't.
I can see it now on the HD51 by enabling show bouquets on launch from adm's reply to my question.

Whereabouts is that option as I can't just find it now.

Thanks

If it was hidden, enabling show bouquets should not show them. That option just shows all the bouquets when you activate Graphical EPG instead of the current bouquet. You can see the list of bouquets by pressing the TV button. If the show bouquets option suits your usage, then leave it as it is.

If it is only a few channels that you want in your bouquets, may I suggest you run only one provider in ABM, set it to not create any bouquets. Then create your own bouquets. Or better still don't use ABM, just perform an Enigma 2 scan. Keeps things simple and without complications.

I've always considered pressing the TV button to get an EPG (or bouquet list) to be counter intuitive. The TV and Radio buttons on many other non Egigma 2 boxes that I've owned do just swap between TV and Radio channels and only need to be pressed when changing from radio to TV and visa-versa. It is more intuitive to use the guide button to get a EPG or bouquet list. Perhaps the various "show bouquets on launch" options in the menu should default to yes to help people new to Egigma/openvix?

Hi,
first menu, setup, system, customise and then you have to set "Setup mode" to advanced or expert. Now you can exit menu.
second open channel list, presss menu, configuration and then "Enable multiple bouquets" to yes.

Now you can use several favorite lists.

I use around 12 for several years now sorted by new, sports, music and so on.
