    Also just wondering if that updated file you gave me will stop my own bouquet (nothing to do with Autobouquets) from disappearing when Autobouquets downloads an update.


    It is not downloading, it is creating using data on satellite stream. During execution/processing, something went wrong and caused it to spoil your existing bouquets. The script has a few edited lines added to stop this from happening. I have pasted the link to the response from Lraizer where i mentioned the issue which has happened to you.


    Both AB 28.2 are not meant to interfere with existing bouquets. I use AB 28.2 on top of Vhannibal's list (after I remove his 28.2 bouquets/channels and re-order) I use AB instead of ABM as it runs in less than a minute including the picon symlinks. Unfortunately, the issue with Catseye is one I don't really want to get too invloved in as it may seem disrespectful. There is a compatibility issue where ABM was not updating some channels becasue of the Catseye's bouquets. Nobody has raised this with Catseye/Skaman/Andyblac to to get to the bottom of it. You are not using ABM, so does not affect you.


    Always good to have backups. To save your existing bouquets, use Dreamset/Dreamboxedit. Instead of "write", select "read" and save to your PC.

    When Commando 15.0 DM500 was released a couple of weeks ago, Team Commando had made the decision to go for a fresh start with an image reflash, and stated that we did NOT have any plans to make a C15.0 upgrade available as a C14.7 Online Update.


    We have mellowed... We realize that there are a number of C14.7 users out there who cannot (for one reason or another) apply the easy reflash procedure and get the latest C15.0b release and update from yesterday, 15 Feb 2014, up and running...


    So, press your Online Update button NOW, and you'll be on C15.0b inside 2 minutes! Please be aware that it will STILL be a fresh start, though!


    1. The update will NOT affect any personal 3rd party files that may have been added to our FTA image (for testing and educational purposes), promise!


    2. Please run SML again when prompted at boot. Same GUI, but underlying coding has changed in C15 - if you miss it, go BLUE > BLUE > GREEN and there is SML, only takes a few secs... As the default location is London, with a bang up to date set of services and bouquets.


    3. And then run AutoBouquets on BLUE > 2 and prepare to be gobsmacked!


    Welcome to Commando 15.0b !!!


    Cheers- TC

    SatelliteJunkie, sorry mate slipped my mind. There were a few extra lines added to the script file in case of errors. Please replace your existing one.


    Online update now available to bring up to Commando_15.0b_dm500_update_14-02-2014_19h17


    Latest upload also attached.


    Have a look at the swap.txt file
    101=141
    103=178
    104=230
    105=171


    If activated, when you press 101 you will get 141. When you press 103 you will get 178 and so forth. If I remember correctly, the deafult one has 102 =142, before BBC2 was HD by default. This line would need to be deleted. Northetrn Ireland users would need to edit theirs too. You cannot swap channels between 1-100. Lraizer has reserved these for something else.


    Channel numbers won't change regulalry. Only when something stops/starts broadcasting or a major reshuffle happens.


    Your recordings are based on the service, not channel. Sorry don't know too much on this, but your EPG data needs to be up to date. Have a look at the crossepg section. You should automate this too. After AB runs.


    Sheduled update scan = NO, Autobouquets will not update your chanenls/bouquets automatcally.
    Sheduled update scan = YES, Autobouquets will automatically update your chanenls/bouquets based on your selection. (picon symlinks too if enabled)


    I don't know what time teh chanenl changes happen. But would imageine at the time that fewest people would be affected. Any time after 06:15 will be fine.

    If the channel numbers change,
    What ever the official channel number is, it will be in the bouquet. (Unless you have applied a swap). This does not happen often, but as you have asked:- You will have to edit sort file.


    If the channel frequencies change,
    Whole point of plugin. You dont have to worry about it.

    Other Extra Channels

    Places Extra/Test channels in the Other bouquet.


    Scheduled Update Scan
    Runs automatically. Going by a post from Lincsat, I would not schedule for middle of night. after 06:15 is fine. Only takes 50 odd seconds. If you have crossepg downloader set, have AB run about before it.


    The auto picon feature
    Converts the picons to static names. Creates symlinks to them automtically so picons will always be valid. You only have to worry about new/changed picons.


    Slight issue found for ROI region. But this is in Lraizer's to do list

    That sort file is fine (only checked top of it).


    After you have started/ran it. It should put chanenls in order of your file. Have you exited bouquet and come back into it to give Enigma2 a chance to refresh?


    If yes and still no joy, I can have a look using teamviewer for you.

    Execute/Run/Start process. Yes, that was what was meant.


    Post a screenshot of your settings (page where you change settings) and upload your custom sort file.

    There is no password on image. Some programs will not interact with receiver if you do not fill in password. DCC E2 will work with password = root even when there isn't one.

    Have you followed advice on how to set password?


    Filezilla works without a password.

    navigate to to the plugin folder, /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/AutoBouquets . I have created a symbolic link so I can just go straight to it.

    Code
    ln -s /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/AutoBouquets /AutoBouquets


    You will find a few sort files. custom_sort_3 has been left for user editing. Best to use a linux editor such as notepad++. Lets say for argument, in the Enteratinment bouquet,


    You want
    BBC1,
    BBC news
    *** sports1


    Your first lines will be
    01=101
    01=503
    01=401



    In the lifesyle bouquet
    you want
    bbc1 again
    bbc2
    star plus


    your sort file will be
    02=101
    02=102
    02=784


    Hopefully you catch the drift for the rest.


    The hierachy is
    Supplement
    Swap
    Sort


    What this means is that if you have a swap of 101 with 141,


    if your sort file is
    101
    102


    it will actually be
    141
    102


    You can juggle bouquets around. Normal Enigma2 action. Enable move mode etc. In the AB E2 options, default must be disabled.
    So for example, you wanted to have your customised channels in the "shopping" bouquet and not affect the others. You would move shopping bouquet to the top using the image.


    Your custom-sort_3 would be the same for all others boouquets, but shopping section would contain for channels in example above


    0a=101
    0a=503
    0a=401


    It is handy having channels in alphabetical order, try this. I have not maintained it for a while. Please backup your existing one.

    Can you confirm what the version date is? You do not need to perform a service scan any longer on newest version.


    If you go into the "-- Autobouquets" bouquet, the date is imprinted for you. Example: Created, Tue Feb 11 01:52:00 GMT 2014


    Yes it will keep them updated for you.


    With regards to customising, best to await your response about version before going further. At the moment, you cannot create extra bouquet that are maintained on the E2 version. However, you can customise existing bouquets. (The one in Commando 15 allows you to rename bouquets and has three extra "freestyle" bouquets.)
