installed it but now cannot seem to ftp or transfer/connect to box. I was able to find the vu in windows and explore it. Now i can't. Any ideas??
As has been posted in other threads, Samba is not installed as standard, install it from the Network menu. You can FTP without samba.

Thanks, managed to figure getting samba installed and then could FTP to the box fine. However, I then had an issue with a "Timeout for Tuner Lock" issue which i couldn't fix, so decided after all that to go back to Hades 018 as had no issues like any of the above with that.
Rescanned through the AutoBouquetMaker and still cannot get Setanta, Setanta Ireland or Setanta 1. Tried just doing an "Automatic" scan from the main scanning menu, it took ages (circa 15 mins) but then Setanta was there somewhere. However, everything was an absolute mess and jumble of an order. The channels are obviously there somehow, but how do i go about just adding them in neatly somewhere into my nice channel list which gets created in ABM? Sorry for these q's but i really need the Setanta channels for the 3pm Saturday games, and i am a total newbie so don't know if i can add just single channels somehow?? Thanks all!
Most probable cause of the timeout for tuner lock is tuner config error (telling receiver there is a signal wire connected to a tuner when there isn't one connected) or signal issue.
Samba is not required for FTP.
If you are using Hades 18, you need to replace the provider file.
Post 15 for manual transfer of file.
Post 43 for the ipk.

Thanks - so just because I am a newbie and want to make sure I get this spot on right....
I extract the XML file from the rar in post #15...and put the 'sat_282_sky_uk.xml' file into:
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/providers
Then, get the file (enigma2-plugin-extensions-sat282skyxmlupdate_25-07-2015_all.ipk) from post #43, and:
1. FTP the file to your tmp folder, "/tmp"
2. From the Menu > Setup > Vix then select 'Install local extension' to install the plugin and follow prompts including to reboot GUI.
3. From Menu > Setup > Service searching > AutoBouquetsMaker then select 'Start scan' to rescan.
Then the channels should appear? Thanks in advance for all help, will try above tonight when home if correct!
Yes. Although updating to a current image and setting it up properly would probably be easier for you in the long run.Originally Posted by bsdbm

Thanks Judge, what I think I will do is perform the above on the Hades that SB have working now and then backup the image to my USB stick.
Then, I will try and install 3.2 and get it all working. If I can't, then I can just revert back.
I assume the above would also be needed on 3.2 to get Setanta channels??
Either 15 or 43. Not both.
The files are included in images after Hades 18, so no need to repeat.
No, using a current image will usually contain all current updates.
Hades is no longer being developed so by reverting to it, you will also miss any future ABM updates.

Followed all of the above and did an automatic scan (outside of ABM) and managed to get the Setanta channels! They now appear on the channel list when I press the red button (to show "ALL CHANNELS") so at least I have them - albeit not next to the s*y sports channels where I would prefer them, but they are there none-the-less. Thanks All! This is still all on Hades 018. I have backed up the image to my USB stick now it is all working, and will try and load OpenVix 3.2 tonight and get it all working on there....wish me luck!
updated to the newest openvix image, and then downloaded blue HD skin, softcam, crossEPG and then Samba. Then added my cline file via ftp through windows laptop. Then did scan in ABM, if i put Sly ROI as the first provider and Sly LondonHD as the second (in the providers order), then Setanta1, SetantaIreland and SetantaHD all appear in the sports section. However, all of the Sly sports channels show Irish adverts! So then, if i delete all of the ABM channels and rescan, with the order of Sly LondonHD first and Sly ROI second, the Setanta channels do not appear in the bouquet. I have to click into red button "All Channels" to get to the alphabetical list of channels and find Setanta channels in there. Is there a way to get them to appear in the ABM sports section but retaining my current structure with the UK Sly Sports channels rather than the Irish? Not a biggie, just thought i would ask. At least i have them now, and am starting to learn a little about how these VU+ boxes and OpenVix work. Certainly far nicer than the old F3s i had, picture quality is certainly superior and interface seems more stable. Plus its nice not having to constantly update the channel lists when things change, just a quick rescan and all well again. Thanks!
