    BBC Red Buttonq

    Hi guys,

    Winter Olympics is on but how do you use the red button on Solo2?

    In the epg there is a bbc interactive channel but there is nothing on it. Only normal bbc one. Is it not possible to use of these boxes?

    EPG= (synopsis, what is/will be on the channel)
    I take it your are referring to the channel list/bouquet instead. In which case this thread is in the wrong section.

    There are two channels BBC RB 1 and BBC RB 2. Perform a manual scan for the two channels as follows:
    Menu > Setup > Service Searching > Manual Scan > Type of Scan > Push left till you get "User defined transponder"
    For now, fill in the details as in pictures attached. The chanenls will not fall into a bouquet, you will have to access it as follows (unless you move them):
    TV button > Satellites > 28.2 services >

    If you are using Lriazer's plugin, the channels appear in the "Other" bouquet instead of BBC interactive.

    Thank you. I managed to find them doing a manual scan. I moved them to the BBC Interactive section on the EPG. But when it ran again, it removed them. Is there a way to stop it deleting them? Will putting them in favorites help?

    You cannot add to any existing bouquets that ABM creates/uses.

    I ran ABM again after I added the red button channels, to hide some sections like Religious etc. But after it ran I had to do a manual scan again to get red button channels back. It removed them.

    Yes, you can safely place them in a favourites bouquet or any other bouquet not updated by ABM.

    Just run ABM, both red button channels are also in the "Other" bouquet. Please ignore post 2 and go straight to the Other bouquet.

    I've ran ABM over n over n restarted but still no 2nd bbc interactive channel. I thought ABM was supposed to replicate/mirror whats on skt/freesat etc?

    Thanks,

    It does but the red button channels are not the same as other channels ie they dont have a EPG slot or channel number as there technically data channels.

    The XMLTV-importer does have some EPG for the interactive channels.
