[ABM-DVB-S/S2] Non-indexed files appearing

[gdmm]

For some reason I am now getting Sky channels appearing in my ABM, despite having 'Skip services on not configured sats' set to Yes and 'Include not indexed channels' set to No.

My providers is set to Granada SD custom and has been for a while, so it is a recent change. The Sky channels are not listed, when set to Granada HD custom they are not listed, but do appear in the Plus 1 bouquet.

For reference the current version is 6.4.10

As far as I understand, hopefully errors will be corrected.

'Skip services on not configured sats'
Some providers broadcast their channels on a few satellites. When this is enabled (default) when ABM runs it will ignore the channels on the satellites that you cannot receive.

'Include not indexed channels'
Enabling this allows ABM to see the Sky channels that are not in that region. E.g If you scanned in Birmingham, ABM will also see the ITV channels from other areas as well as channels not officially launched.
Also enabling the custom hacks (by selecting a region with custom in the name) means that they will be added to the bouquets.

The recent changes means that ABM will be not be skipping the encrypted channels but will be adding them to the stream relay whitelist file.

As I understand it, if you don't want the encrypted Sky channels, you will have to use the FTA mode.

Certain channels were removed from Sky UK provider several years ago because it was impossible for the user's Sky subscription card to open them. As this is now solved they do show in the bouquet. If you don't have a Sky subscription card you can avoid adding these channels by doing an FTA only scan.
