sat and cable custom mix updater plugin (BETA)

[dsayers]

added to automatically download the lastest sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml on reboot

Hi i have managed to create an ipk to install my latest sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml from my github branch what i would like is members to test it. What this will do is swap the none working sat hd channels for vm so you only need one set of sky bouquets using Autobouquetsmaker and would like members to test it to see if the ipk downloads ok.

This should work on any box and enigma2 image using AutoBouquetsMaker


PLEASE NOTE THIS IS BETA AND I WILL BE DOING MORE AMENDMENTS SO FOR NOW I WOULD LIKE THIS TO STAY SMALL SO NO POSTING ON OTHER FORUMS AND FACEBOOK GROUPS



ftp the ipk tmp


to install it on box


OpenATV
Menu... setup... software management... install local extension
memory/tmp
Press ok on the package
press green to install.




OpenVIX
Menu > setup > VIX > Iplkg install or install loca extenrions
memory/tmp
Press ok on the package
press green to install.

restart your box and it should automatically download the latest sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml

you now should have a sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml file in /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/custom.
Every time you restart the box it will download the latest sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml


now you need to set your bouquets
menu>setup>service searching>Autobouquets maker> providers my recommended settings are:


sky roi: yes
all other roi options to no
sky uk: yes
sky uk: area HD not custom or sd
generate bouquets yes
channel swap to yes
virgin uk: yes
virgin generate bouquets to no i have main bouquet to yes for epgrefresh
Press green to save.

In autobouqetesmarker you need to go to providers order sat_282_sky_uk needs to be at the top highlight it and press blue button to move it up once done press green to save now you can press start scan.

If you decide this isn't for you just uninstall it from your plugins menu then ftp /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/custom and delete the sat_282_sky_uk_CustomMix.xml
