    They're calling this generic BBC One with no local programming "BBC One NightLight".

    You are correct, my post is wrong. I had gone by the EPG, selecting the channel when BBC one London news is on shows the message about changing to SD channel.

    Not sure about other areas, but I think this needs deleting for london areas

    <channel number="101" with="115" conditional="'BBC One' in service_hd['service_name']"/> <!-- BBC One HD -->

    For an sd list, there is a
    BBC One HD on 115
    BBC One Lon HD on 801

    I use the ABM London SD Custom bouquet and also the London Freesat bouquet. Freesat has updated 101 to BBC1 London HD and has removed the BBC1 London SD service which was on 106 and has a "Channel moved" service name in that position. Presumably, they will either delete that or move another channel into position 106 in time.

    I see you've moved a generic BBC1 SD service into 115 on the Sky London SD bouquet. I had downloaded xml update and run a providers update before re-running ABM.

    Move 801 and 802 lines above 115 lines should cure it. I can't test at the moment.

    801 is the generic bbc one HD, I Need to assign bbc q South west hd to 801 so it can be swapped in to the main bouquet. It's currently only available in the last scanned.

    801 should be a simulcast of whatever is at 101.

    For London, During news, 101 says you need to get hd box. 115 says to tune to 101. 801 is the local news in HD.

    Last set of changes are next week.

    That did not work. However, the FTA HD bouquet has BBC One Lon HD at position 1 for me.

    Just connected an official Sky HD box, the card is not paired.
    101 = BBC one London HD
    115 = BBC One HD - switch to bbc one for latest news
    801 = BBC One- Upgrade to HD....

    Edit: IIRC, we had some code for the FTAHD bouquet that seems to be doing the trick. We previously had the HDfirst section that was removed when the code was adapted.

    Can you tell me what you are trying to achieve in ABM that is not right now?

    Please state area, channel positions without swaps, channel positions with swaps.

    BTW, obviously the Sky HD box is going to be using HD ordering.

    FTA_HD bouquet uses the same swapDict as the main and sections bouquets.

    There are pictures attached to avoid the misunderstandings/confusions as well as logs. The change on post 18 works fine for me in my area.
