HD bouquet corresponds with channelsontop, so not a bug.

[jawz]

Ok thanks for looking into it for me.

[Huevos]

Easiest way to cure this is switch off the HD bouquet and create your own.

[jawz]

how would you suggest i create my own hd bouquet. not sure how to instruct only hd channels to go in the bouquet.

thanks

[Huevos]

Spend some time reading the code. There is a list of service types in dvbscanner.py. Try to work it out. If you can't, post your attempt. It's the only way to lesrn.

[jawz]

thanks I was reading only the provider file. will give it a go

[Huevos]

You need to look in the files in the scanner folder. CustomMix xml files are read by tools.py. Ifyou don't read the surrounding code you are just trying to write code in the dark.

thanks for the help Huevos but i think i will need to come back to this once i learn some basic python.

[Huevos]

I think it works the other way around. You want to achieve something with your code. Learning just comes along the way and is secondary.

[Huevos]

Something like this at the end of your hacks section should create an HD section as the first bouquet. Order would be identical to your current list.

current_first_section = sorted(sections.keys())[0] # get the current first section number
start_HD_bouquet_at = 1 # where we are going to place our new HD section (i.e. the first bouquet)
if start_HD_bouquet_at < current_first_section: # Only add this section if there is space
	sections[start_HD_bouquet_at] = "HD Channels" # name the HD section
	current_slot = start_HD_bouquet_at # remember the next available slot
	for lcn in sorted(customised["video"].keys()): # iterate through occupied slots
		if not (current_slot < current_first_section): # if there are no more slots in the HD section
			break
		if customised["video"][lcn]["service_type"] in DvbScanner.HD_ALLOWED_TYPES: # if this channel is HD
			customised["video"][current_slot] = customised["video"][lcn]
			current_slot += 1

Excellent work again Huevos. Works exactly as you said.

thanks

Huevos is that code written just to have the bouquet placed at the top, or could i edit this to make the bouquet be placed at the bottom?

No, but the code to do that is simpler.

if customised["video"]: # check not zero length
	LCN_list = sorted(customised["video"].keys()) # get LCNs sorted low to high
	next_slot = LCN_list[-1]+1 # get last LCN +1
	sections[next_slot] = "HD Channels" # create HD section and name it
	for lcn in LCN_list: # run through LCNs in order
		if customised["video"][lcn]["service_type"] in DvbScanner.HD_ALLOWED_TYPES:: # if this channel is HD
			customised["video"][next_slot] = customised["video"][lcn] # add to HD section
			next_slot += 1 # bump slot

thanks Huevos, but unfortunately i got a crash with this added to the bottom of my file. (I removed the previous code placing the hd bouquet at the top)
