    AutoBouquetsMaker and epg help

    Hi everyone,

    First of all thanks everyone for the help to decide on a box, got the VU+ solo2
    I'm probably mixing things but here is the thing, I've disconnected my sly box so I'm using a sly dish facing the sky
    On Autobouquet, I've the option to select freesat and sky, both give me the same channels and It's confusing when I go to the list, the question is, should I be using freesat and sky at the same time?
    On Epg there are different sources were I can download the epg from, should I just enable one? What's the best in your opinion?

    Thanks.

    Opentv 28.2 will service the epg of both sky and freesat.
    It depends on whether or not you have a viewing card, if yes scan your sky region, if not scan your freesat region.
    There is nothing that says you can't create bouquets for both if you so wish.
    VU+ Ultimo 4K 3TB, 1x Twin DVBS-2 FBC / 1x DVB-C FBC/ 1x Twin DVB-T2.

    Please clarify which you are refering to. AutoBoquetsMaker and AutoBouquets are two separate plugins.

    Yes, I still have my card, but do I have channels on freesat list that I don't have on the Sly list? Or Sly have exactly the same plus the premium ones?

    There are a few channels on Freesat not on the Sky line up.

    So the best is to use both, right? How can I handle duplicates?

    Both providers can be run without creating bouquets. That allows you to use custom mix and inject channels into the one you create.

    Also a good idea to enable the "not indexed" option.

    For people just using Freesat, there is no need to use CrossEPG or OpenTV at all.
