Just to make sure I got it alright....

I need to download the zip file that @Abu baniaz attached in post #12 on that thread, extract the contents and FTP into my receiver and reboot.

Please could you confirm if what I've mentioned is correct procedure ?

Yes that will work it has the latest config files included. Just bare in mind you won't be able to update future config files you need to flash the latest vix image for update config files option to work

So for me to update to the latest configuration files in future, I need to update to the latest image first?

Secondly when you say "flash" do you mean the usual flash with a USB stick or just just image update via the image manager please.

Sorry for too much questions, I just need to know so as not to open unnecessary thread in future.

Yes reflash you can do it by usb or image manager. The latest config files are in that zip file so you will be ok for a while.

You can get updates with Abu's files but you would need to modify the Version file to reflect the latest version. It is easier to update the image.

No sadly not because Irish sat and cable numbers are different to uk. I did think about doing one for Ireland but I don't know the Irish channel listings

You can edit the custom file yourself. The custom mix file wont work for the areas where ABM does not work properly.

Download from here

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

can you find me the official channel vm channel number for AL Jazeera HD I cant find it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Virgin_Media_television_channels#HD_Channels alos suggest where to place the sd version (sky) ill probably move it to 519

Yes that looks fine the update was done because of your issue now it will try to connect if it can't it will exit the plugin and carry on to boot so you shouldn't get the error but it does mean it won't download the xml.

How did you get on with the script?
