ABM 40988 not locking

[carlowen]

I'm in area id 40988. Yesterday without changing anything almost half of the HD channels showed tune failed. Tried running abm and it display an error " failed to tune v uk on tuner c ". I tried to update config file and no update found.
I know the tuner is configured correctly as when I do a auto scan it tunes and finds all channels and all channels in the bouquets now display. Just the Abm tune fails.

Vu duo2. Vix 5.1.012.

The tuning frequency that ABM could have have changed like other areas. We can update ABM.

Set your tuners to "Virgin Media UK (All systems)"
Remove all cable services. This is done by following: Channel up, green, select cable services, menu, remove cable services, confirm. Then restart
Perform a manual scan, selecting "complete". Enable network scan too. It will take a while.
Restart
Transfer your lamedb and lamedb 5 files from /etc/enigma2 to your PC
Zip/rar and attach here

Hey Abu, I noticed you also update the ABM on github. It took me a while to understand how this works and I've been trying to understand why some VM cable channels don't work. I am on 40985 - north London(Finchley) and the ABM fails to tune saying the same thing as the issue in this thread. Can I help you update the ABM github so I can update config file and hopefully manage to tune using my area net id successfully?

Hi i think the frequencies have changed in my area, i was going to upload my lamedb files but when u click on manual scan i dont see the (selecting provider) option

[abu baniaz]

Thanks. Just need to fine tune



Transfer this file to /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/providers

Delete providers.cache



Try ABM again.



If it works....



Remove all cable services:> Channel up, green, select cable services, menu, remove cable services, confirm
Restart
Run ABM again
Restart
Transfer your lamedb file from /etc/enigma2 to your PC

Transfer your lamedb5 file from /etc/enigma2 to your PC

Zip/rar and attach here

[carlowen]

Worked great. File attached.

[abu baniaz]

Can you attach the lamedb5 file too please?

[carlowen]

Will do it as soon as home

[carlowen]

File as requested. Thanks again for your work.

[abu baniaz]

That does not have cable services, did you restart first?

[carlowen]

Sorry. Do I need to do the whole process again. Clear cable services and do a auto scan then download the file.

[abu baniaz]

Lamedb5 is updated on restart. No need to do whole process again. Just restart, then transfer file.

Thanks.

[carlowen]

Hope it correct this time. Restarted and grabbed the file.
