Sort channels in each section alphabetically.
This can be used for any provider but the attached file would need to be correctly named for the provider being modified. Switch "swap channels" to "no".

Create an ITV regions bouquet.
Hades 018+.
For use in conjunction with "Sky UK". This will create an ITV regions bouquet as the last but one bouquet. In ABM -> Configure, "Include not indexed channels" must be set to "Yes".

Create a timeshift bouquet.
For Sky UK. Creates a bouquet with "+1", "+2" and "+24" channels. Bouquet is placed after the interactive sections so as not to interfere with numbering.

For those who want number printed next to channel name.
Only 1-999 are numbered (inclusive of enforced numbers, i.e where we give a channel a number in that range. Eg Setanta sports)
This will break SNPicons
Code:<custommix> <hacks> <![CDATA[ for service in sorted(services[section_identifier]["video"].keys()): if service in range(1,1000): if "interactive_name" in services[section_identifier]["video"][service]: services[section_identifier]["video"][service]["interactive_name"] = str(services[section_identifier]["video"][service]["number"]) + " - " + services[section_identifier]["video"][service]["interactive_name"] else: services[section_identifier]["video"][service]["interactive_name"] = str(services[section_identifier]["video"][service]["number"]) + " - " + services[section_identifier]["video"][service]["service_name"] ]]> </hacks> </custommix>
To show channel numbers on Info bars:
Menu > Setup > System > User Interface > Settings > Show channel number in infobar
Change this to yes and Restart E2 for setting to be applied.
N.B
Enigma2 does not have numbering. The numbers are dynamic and based on the order in which bouquets/channels are loaded. As such not easy to do for Graphical EPG screen.
Edit: mark II version... allows swap to display the correct numbers. For use in OpenViX 4.2.001+.

These will make a csv file containing:
Interactive name
Service reference
Channel Name
Official LCN (Logical Channel Number)
EPG/Channel ID
Encryption type (some are wrong on the tables)
Provider name
IPTV link
TSID
Service type
Ocram Picon SRP value
EDIT:
These are not compatible with Python 3 images

This is a test provider file. It goes in the provider folder. You can sort by the Channel/EPG ID, LCN, Name

That is the default behaviour. If there is not a simulcast HD channel available ABM will select the substitute HD channel provided by the broadcaster. More on that here: ITV HD channel scanned by ABM doesn't match local region.Originally Posted by lincsat
If you want to override that behaviour and only swap the simulcast versions of BBC/ITV, not the substitutes, you can try the following:
