The xml I messed up was
cable_uk_virgin.xml
I realised that the true numbers for the Sly Sports active were in the 30s 40s 50s or 60s, ie before 101. However, the original file had it in the 1000s which is an incorrect EPG number.
What I was trying to do was to amend the script so that the Sky Sports aCtives would appear on their true numbers, as well as the BT Sport ones. Also, no radio services appeared above 900, as well as all thed HD channels showing as n/a.
So what I am looking for is a working way of getting the true virgin lcns to appear as an entire list showing ALL numbers including the ones that are hidden.
The file I quoted above all I did was once I replaced it, I rebooted the box and now all I get is the option to scan Freeview, Saorview or Kable NK. There is no settings for cable at all so the program is not reading the cable xml file any more. That is strange. Why is this do yo think?
If you can make it so there are no variables just reading the true LCN list off the air that is all I am tryin to achieve.
Also what on earth has NetID 41017 got to o with the running of the program? That is not one of the ones in the list you can choose from. What is 41017?
And, why do we need whitelists and blacklists? You make it far more complicated than it needs to be. All I need is for the program to read the entire channel list as broadcast by virgin with its actual LCNs showing with all channel names shown also no "<n/a>"s please. That does not tell me the name of the channels.
Thanks again for your help.
