Does anybody know how to initiate ABM via command line / telnet?

[b4ndit74]

How do you setup AB so that when you type channel number of 101 in on remote it goes to bbc1 or 501 for sky news ?

Thanks

That is standard. Only condition is that Freesat must be lower than the Sky in your list of providers.

No issues here with ABM on Helios build 010, we need a little more info from you in order to start the fault finding process, plus you really should have made a bug report in the appropriate section rather than just tacking onto the end of what is a general discussion thread.

Perhaps @Phoenix or @abu baniaz can explain to me the numbering for ABM bouquets? Maybe this is more to do with ViX / Enigma 2?

The "ALL Channels" has numbering that you would expect in line with EPG line up of popular provider.

With either "alternative numbering" or regular numbering, the additional bouquets generated by ABM have either 1,2,3, etc (alternative) or numbers that start at a different schema to "All Channels"?

I would love to see the numbering from "All Channels" consistent with "All Channels", but I am sure there is a reason why not? Can one of you experts please explain.

Thanks for taking the time to read

[abu baniaz]

Alternative numbering will start the first channel in each bouquet at 1. Whether you use ABM, AB 28.2 or any compiled bouquets. Please disable and see the differnce. Default is off, please disable and compare the differnce.

ABM does not require the main bouquet to use the 5ky numbering. If you have the main bouquet, the other channels are added on top of these. So you will have a cumulative chanenl number. You can disable create main bouquet, the 5ky numbering will still work provided that the 5ky bouquet is at top of your list of providers.

There is also an option within ABM as to where it creates your bouquets. On top of your existing ones, or below. Best to keep on top if you do not have any premade bouquets.

In ViX's ABM settings, go to ABM Providers and set SkyUK 'Generate main boquets' to NO and the channel numbering will be just like sky. then green button to save, rescan n restart enigma n all done.

We have a dedicated section for AutoBouquetsMaker support threads, link below. There is a category for it in the support drop down menu.

Anyone having issues should ideally post screenshots of their setup so others can replicate their issue.

Yep Agree, does exactlty as you say, Thanks!

BUT.... This is great for all of the sections that you select in ABM - numbering is consistent.

However as with the HD Bouquet, and FTA Bouquet, it would be FANTASTIC to get an "All Channels" bouquet option at the bottom for ABM in this scenario. This would provide a "catch all" listings bouquet for every channel, AND keep the sections above with the 'correct' number schema - I hope I make sense!

[QUOTE=pheonix;179678]A few of the really nice features of this plugin as follows.

This plugin currently supports 15 different providers as detailed below

AustriaSat 19.2 East
Canal Digitaal HD 19.2 East
Canal Digitaal SD 19.2 East
Czech Republic 23.5 East
Freesat 28.2 & 28.5 East
Mobistar FR 19.2 East

TéléSAT SD 19.2 East
TVSat 13.0 East

This plugin has been coded from the ground up in C+ and python which means it's very fast and does not need any form of service scan prior to using, it can be run from a totally virgin setup in around 60 to 80 seconds flat.

I was gonna ask how many this can install - i have a motorised dish and wish to add to the ones I already have - is there a new version/update on the way to be able to add more in the near future?
