What do you guys think of a search function by keyword ie you cant find where itv2+1 is so you search for itv or itv2 to bring up the available options

But that also means you'll lose it all at the next update if the packaged with the "real" *.pyo file gets updated - so keep it around in order that you may put it back for a later recompile.
I create my own bouquet files, so that I can put all of the Freeview (incl. HD) channels onto their standard channel numbers (ABM may do this now, but it didn't a few months ago). It also means that my Radio and TV bouquets are the same (they each contain both...)

Not a single py file uploaded to this thread, how can anyone expect any code to be tested or even added to the image?
Currently, no one can even help to improve or implement any of the ideas suggested.

Sky UK (SD) swaps SD channels for HD channels for those channels that work.
All I did was change function of red and green key so that EPG goes 24+/- in my code so it's not worth uploading my code as it's nothing compared to the work @matt007 has done.
@matt007, when you get a chance can you upload your py code so it can be tested and possibly implemented into the image itself. Thank you.
@bbbuk I'd be interested in your code. All I'm after is changing red to show bouquets and channel +&- to page up and down, not really bothered about extra popup menu like matt007's
Sent by pressing the screen on 1 of my Apple devices, cuz that's how I roll..
Attached as requested. Remember all I did was change what the first three coloured buttons do.

SIMPLES.
Whered Matt007 gone, it's all gone quiet.
Hi guys! Im really sorry for the delay - Personal life got a bit hectic, not to mention I work full time and this is just a hobby to give back to the community.
Here are the files. I have included the .pyo file instead of the .py file for the reason stated above by Abu Baniaz.
@bbbuk - I realise you want the .py file as you want your colours buttons to be set up a bit differently. It will become a bit messy if we deal with that in this thread so I am more than happy to go through the source with you outside this thread (PM perhaps) and help you get your buttons working.
Whilst the functionality is coded in the python files, the visual side is always down to the skin. As a result I have only made this work with my current skin which is Blue HD v3. There is no reason why it cannot work on any other skin - just requires a few elements to be added to the skins xml file.
Please back up your original files before replacing them with the ones below.
The files:
EpgSelection.pyo - This contains coding for the new functionality. Place this inside /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Screens
skin_Blue-HD.xml - This contains new elements that will allow you to see the added features. Place this inside /usr/share/enigma2/Blue-HD
epg.png - I modified the look of the epg screen to incorporate the list of bouquets next to the current bouquet. Place this inside /usr/share/enigma2/Blue-HD/infobar
What has been modified?
Red Button:
If event is present then it will display a options dialog with the following options:
1) IMDb Search
2) Add Timer (or Change Timer if timer has already been added for that event)
3) Add AutoTimer
4) Search
If event is not present then the red button will just turn into a search button as it doesnt make sense retaining options such as Add Timer, Add AutoTimer if an event is not present.
Green Button:
Short Press - Brings up your recordings
Long Press - Brings up your timer list
Yellow Button:
Minus 24 hours
Blue Button
Plus 24 hours
Channel +:
Goes up a page
Channel -:
Goes down a page
< and >:
They switch through your bouquet list as before - No changes there. However with the new bouquet list element I have added, you can see the list being scrolled through - Just a user experience improvement (well for me at least!).
Numbers 0-9:
Allows you to search for a channel. As you are typing, if your channel number exists then the channel name will appear. Pressing OK will go to that channel in the EPG. Waiting for a few seconds does the same.
I decided to leave out the numbering of the channels as I feel it will get quite messy as my code required the first bouquet in your list to contain all of the channels with the correct numbers. It seems to me not everyone has set up their bouquets like that so things will just get messy.
Let me know of any bugs or issues. As I said before, I am pretty new to the enigma2 scene, having just got a box a few weeks ago so would appreciate any feedback.
Download:
Upload removed. See further along thread for later version.
Edit: Once I get time, I will modify other skins so it can work with them too.
