    use kiddacs jedimakerxtream


    and set


    use rytec uk epg

    and replace uk channel names with swap names


    that will more or less make all your uk one to service name, so service named picons can be used

    strange im on openatv 6.2, there was only one file in /aliases folder and that was a conf file

    as for history, there is no epg replacment in the config file so you wont get epg for HISTORY


    but the way it works we can use the history hd epg and edit the alias.conf


    ie

    History HD-bskyb=HISTORY HD,HISTORY

    What have you changed in the Py file and why? Migh as well as add it to the plugin properly.

    the py file was from jenseneverest, like i said not much info out there,tbh i think the py file is the same,


    i was also looking at having its own folder, i found how to but its the renaming of the alias files, as the .py file would need changing, or do we?

    yeh we had a bit of trouble at first, its trying find any more info as most is from 2011,so any help is greatly appreciated but what we do know is it keeps the old epg somehow,even if you delete the config file,also a change to att to 755 and reboot when you ftp a new file helps,

    any reason you have both east and west and central and not all same or is that best for you

    SETUP & PREREQUISITES:


    Crossepg plugin installed and working

    A satellite feed on 28.2e ( freesat - sky ) is required for openTV data

    Putty or a similar telnet / SSH tool will be required - DO NOT USE OPENWEBIF TERMINAL


    Putty can be downloaded here:

    https://www.chiark.greenend.or…gtatham/putty/latest.html


    Please use google if your unsure how to telnet to your box, or ask on the forum



    HOW TO INSTALL:


    A simple one line command will now open an install script

    It will give you a choice of your ITV region when installing the mod

    Copy and paste the command below and hit enter with putty


    Code
    cd /tmp && wget -q --no-check-certificate https://github.com/jenseneverest/regionals/raw/master/choice.sh && chmod 755 choice.sh && ./choice.sh

    USAGE

    go to crossepg plugin ( it is assumed you have already setup crossepg before, if not ask for help if required)

    make sure opentv provider is set to 28.2

    go to scripts providers

    and tick the boxes pictured

    press green to save

    check providers order, move about until you get as pictured below:

    Green to save...

    Once setup of crossepg is finished, exit all menus, go back into crossepg and "download now"

    You should have full sat and cable EPG when it has finished downloading


    Scotland and N Ireland dont need ITV regions, you have your own versions and so will get a std Alias file that still updates online like everyone else, you should choose option 19 when installing.


    The ITV regions are based on what i could find online, if your epg data is wrong then please say for what channel / region i have made a cock up on, and please provide the correct details for your area by posting them to this thread

    For peeps interested in what the script is doing:


    1. Downloads and installs required files to crossepg plugin if it exists (if not attempts to install from feed)

    2. Deletes your excisting epg.dat and crossepg folder/logs from your storage device

    3. Changes the crossepg version to 5.x.x - SEE NOTE BELOW**
    4. Adds scripts to usr/crossepg/providers - hopefully they are self explanatory

    5. Restarts your box



    ** It was decided to change to version number to 5.x.x - The main reason for this it to stop crossepg being overwritten by an image update (well in theory anyways....) and messing up our mod.


    As always post any issues or questions

    theres a few on here,have you tried a openpli one, or have you had a play at using spark (the boot thing is normally to do with space,joeuser normally compressed a few so they would boot,) also are you using spark to install or the front buttons
