AutoBouquetsMaker showing BBC2 SD instead of HD

[SkyFan]

AutoBouquetsMaker today is showing BBC Two standard definition instead of the HD channel. I have Vix Apollo 113.

I was wondering why this happened when I thought AutoBouquetsMaker is supposed to automatically show the correct channel?

Elaborate more. What do you mean "ABM is supposed to automatically show the correct channel"??

I can't be any clearer than what I've already said. BBC2 SD is showing in my channel list instead of BBC2 HD. Autobouquets is supposed to show the correct channel at all times even when the frequencies change, etc.

What settings have you used? You have just refalshed your image, so the settings you used are most probably differnt to what you used last time.

I would have tried latest image instead of apollo 113

I backed up my image when everything was working. I have not changed any settings. I don't want to update to a new image, it gets exhausting having to install a new image and settings all the time.

Here are my AutoBouquetsMaker settings:

That is your custom lcn file, not your settings.

Which provider did you select?
What region did you select?
Did you enable swap?

[SkyFan]

Freesat (UK) Yes
Freesat (UK): Area: England HD: London/London. Leave other settings on defaults
Sky UK: Yes
Sky UK Area: London HD
Sky UK Swap Channels: No

What does an official Sky HD receiver show for BBC2 with a card registered to a London postcode? Is it HD or SD?

Enable the swap.

Freesat (UK) Yes

Sky UK Swap Channels: No

You are best using the LONDON SD version and setting Swap to YES. The reason for LONDON SD is so hides all the unwanted "non viewable hd channels" and enabling swap will swap your sd channels with the hd equivalent.

How do I do that? Under Sky UK (SD) do I select Yes?

[Andy_Hazza]

Enable the swap.

When I press 102 it goes to BBC2 SD. The HD channel is on channel 142.
Am I correct in saying that AutobouquetsMaker does NOT update the channel numbers, it only updates the channel frequencies?

Did you enable swap then rescanned ABM?

It replicates the offical list. If you have a HD sky receiver and using a card registered in London, the numbers will be as it has produced them. If you want to swap them, say yes to the question about swapping. They will then always be swapped.
