Will the new ABM still be including the odd Irish channels within?Only changes to ABM are:
1) Make the bouquet key available to servicehacks so conditional service hacks are possible (based on region/SD/HD/Custom/etc).
https://github.com/oe-alliance/oe-alliance-plugins/commit/b370f8bb6a12bea59a023a24fb9ef44ed9d88547
2) Swap channels in "sections" as well as "main".
https://github.com/oe-alliance/oe-alliance-plugins/commit/731bc533b359d52204c69ada4bd56b3d958e6762
3) Only "swapchannels" if both ends of the swap exist and the target is HD. This cures the "Nations bug", as well as a couple of other weird effects.
https://github.com/oe-alliance/oe-alliance-plugins/commit/21178dab96f3b743af1a3deb7238c42721463a92
The rest is just changes in the providers file. Luke's file had a load of "for" loops and these were run on every service so ended up being a bit inefficient. So whole process has been cut by tens of thousands of iterations. In theory the list produced should be more or less the same except for the changes to swap, which, for example, would place BBC2 HD at LCN 102, for all three bouquet types. Obviously swap needs to be enabled for this to occur.
And to add the Irish channels "extra channels" needs to be enabled. Those channels will use the same vacant slot numbers as Luke's provider file.
It's easy enough to modify the .xml file again to add the "Irish Channels" group back in with the full list of Irish channels if needed/wanted
hi,
just downloaded the zzl list for VIX image Hades on vu Solo2
I would like the working HD channels on TOP. i.e BBC ONE 101 should be BBC ONE HD...
it used to work on VIX Apollo 166 image so nicely.
Not sure which option allows me do have the HD channels on top. Like BT sport HD etc too.
Have another look at post #249

Yep.. Tis gone..
Maybe not, OScam reports the ECM are OK, other blocked channels are reported as Not OK, that's reading a local Red card. It could be the pairing or could be something different, I would wait a few days before removing it from the White list.
Hi,
I am relatively new to all this, having bought the Vu+ Duo2 last week. After a week of tinkering, I finally got it working how I wanted with all the FTA HD and Sly UK HD channels replacing the SD versions where available.
Then, last night I saw Hades had been released so I thought it was the right think to upgrade. Now however, I can no longer find the "Sky UK (SD)" provider in the providers list. How do I get this back to exactly how it was before I upgraded i.e.
101 = BBC 1 South East HD
102 = BBC2 HD
...
106 = Sky 1 HD
etc.
I've read #249 and tried the Custom setting for London Kent Custom setting but it still no joy...
What am I doing wrong, or is the equivalent of "Sky UK (SD) gone forever with Hades?
cheers.
you could copy the sky provider file, edit the name in the XML to create your own, and remove any channels you don't want to HD swap (e.g. BBC1) from the swap list.

ABM has been changed so swaps occur in teh bouquets too. If you don't want to swap, just say no in the settings.
and just to confirm, this then won't swap any SD channels for HD channels. If you set swap to yes, the channels in the list will be swaped in all bouquets.
All sorted - didn't realise I needed to reboot.
If you set swap to yes, the channels in the list will be swaped in all bouquets.No. Just just the listed channels.
I a so sorry to be such a newbie(although had box a year), but had ZZL working and was perfect, although recently One,Atlantis,Living etc disappeared but as I dont like to risk changing my ideal setup I left it alone. Anyway, wife was left alone with TV for 2 minutes and somehow messed all the TV listing bouquets up, went into providers and no Sky ZZL to select. I restored it to a back up and was fine again, but I tried an ABM scan and lost the layout of channels again.
Why has ZZL gone? The ZZL XML IS showing when I FTP to my box.
Also once resolved above how should I get the missing channels back?
Hello All,
Before I changed to Hades (dont think it has anything to do with this issue but you never know) I had the SD / HD setup fine, but since my reflash I cant get the settings quite right.
I had it set to it would give me the channels on #1 BBC1HD, #2 BBC2HD, #3 ITVHD, #4 C4HD, #5 C5 SD
The important bit was that Channel 5 was the SD version and since my reflash channel #5 is C5HD which is unviewable.
Can someone confirm what settings I need to put in please>
Thanks,
FP.

You don't need the Luke's xml file. His coding to exclud unavailable channels has been incorporated into the main xml.
Your location must be followed by custom. Not HD or SD.
I have no "custom" providers :(

The default provider file in Hades has an SD,HD and Custom entry for each location.
Basically keep pressing right until you reach your area and custom you will see what I mean.

Quicker to go left.
Quicker to go left.Depends where you are starting from. :D
All sorted for me... Forgot about the custom shizzle....
Thanks for your help --- again.... I will get the hang of this soon...
If I go to Menu->Setup->Service searching->Autobouquetsmaker->Providers I have 4 options:-Freesat(uk), Sky Republic Ireland, Sky UK and Sky UK(SD), all are set to "no". If I change Sky UK or Sky UK(SD) to yes and cycle through the areas I get all in SD and all in HD and that is it, no custom.

What image are you using?
abu baniaz
16-05-15, 22:59
I think you should Flash Hades 08.
Hades 08 now there, custom provider chosen, fresh scan done. But not the sky channel number tv list and includes HD rather than freeview HD and SD sky.

What exactly do you want to achieve?
Freeview is on aerial, not satellite.
Please upload your debug log. This will show what settings you have used for ABM.
Sorry just gone back into TV guide and showing Exactly how I want it! Many thanks!

Hope someone can help me, I have just flashed my box to image Hades 018 and set it up to use SKY (SD) abm. I've set it to swap SD channels with HD but its not swapping the channels. 104 Channel 4 is still SD version and 227 is HD version. Its the same for other channels too. BBC1/ITV etc

It's built into the latest image now so you need to select your region with custom on it & that will sort it out :)
ETA: You'll need to run ABM again once your custom region has been selected btw.

Hi Dude - if i use the default 'SKY UK' abm provider i choose the area i'm in (London HD) and set swap channels. After doing a scan yes all channels are now HD but this includes sky HD channels that do not work. the ZZL provider only swapped the HD channels that actually worked. Am i doing something wrong?
Yes. Select "London Custom".
Yes. Select "London Custom".
I dont have a 'london custom' only london, london/essex, london/kent, and london/thames valley.
That is because you are using the ZZL file. You should be using the file that comes with the image. I.e. "Sky UK".

I feel like such a numpty, was going through the regions on that provider and all i could see was 'HD' at the end of all the London areas not realising you have to go to the end. Thank you so much, this has been driving me crazy for days :thumbsup:

I am closing this thread now. The "skip unavailable HD chanenls" coding that ZoomZoomLuke introduced has been in main xml file since Hades was released. There are three types of each location. Please look at the end of the location name. I am using London as an example:
1. London HD
Almost exact lineup as on an offcial HD receiver
2. London SD
Almost exact lineup as on an offcial SD receiver
3. London Custom
Numbering is the same as an official SD receiver.
Unavailable HD channels are skipped.
Other hacks come into play such as "not indexed" (extra chanels from other regions as well as test channels)
Other channels are inserted such
You can reach the custom variant quicker by scrolling left instaed of right.
