Anybody willing to test these should backup their xml files first. Please check the swapchannels and chanenlsontop file section of xml files forsy for changes. I have modified the names too, feel free to sugegst better ones.
There is no Vix for SD receivers, this prompted post 535. If we don't need them, then they can be omitted. This will result in smaller list of regions to toggle through. Does it matter as it is a once in while activity?
I have left the Wales regions in the England xml. Only one pair of regions mentioned post 538 had S4/C. Didn't want to get rid of them if still needed.
I have not tested every region, so would be gerateful for feedback. Also I use the third party plugin and not ABM. I am unsure as to whether the Entertainment section is meant to include the swapped HD channels. They are in the all channels and HD sections.

@abu baniaz - I will test tonight. Thank you for all of your great help.
@andyblac please see my post http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...l=1#post251822 It contains a skyie.xml attached that is correct for Sky Northern Ireland. I used the file that you committed in your post http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...l=1#post250419 which I amended for BBC 1 HD NI swap, as well as the HD Bouquet order so that the line up was BBC1 NI HD / BBC NI 2 HD / UTV HD / Channel 4 HD / Channel 5 HD
@abu baniaz - I have tested the six xml files. I have used various "swap" yes/no, and checked the HD order, as well as "all channels" order. As example I have noted that regions of Scotland receive BBC Scotland and Wales get BBC Wales and ITV Wales accordingly. Ireland and N. Ireland look good from all respects. On the UK regions, I confirm the .xml works fine, but I am not overly familiar with all of the region variations so cannot be 100% on channels by UK region; that said it all looks good. Great work
On the FreeSat options, I am not sure what G2 is against many of the listings? Have tested London/South HD - looks good.

Last thing, during testing I happened to notice that some "help" text was masked in ABM (marked in red) - I never noticed before or knew the feature was there. I checked with older.xml files and condition was same - so nothing to do with files you posted.

Hello, sorrry if this is the wrong thread, but $ly sports HD 1 has changed its frequency and autobouquets picks up the old channel (maybe because it is transmitting a blank screen) does someone need to manually change this or will it eventually sort itself out?
Thanks.
Working fine for me.

I've downloaded the file in post 539 and applied to ABM (thanks to all involved). I now have all the NI HD swapped with the SD channels in the main bouquet only, I've been looking at the .xml file and was wondering if there is a way to modify it so the Hd swap applies to the entertainment bouquet?
I'm not holding out much hope as if it was possible to do so it would already have been done.
Thanks to all who created and maintain ABM. I have been using it for a while now but I only run it manually which obviously restricts one of its main benefits. The problem is that I have a 'Favourites TV' bouquet which the family have now become familiar with and they use the number keys on the remote to quickly select the first 9 of those favourites. As ABM sorts other bouquets to the end then I have to manually shift the favourites to the top of the list after each new scan. That's not a problem but is the reason why I don't run ABM daily.
Is there some other utility which I could run after ABM to re-order the bouquets? Or is there some other workaround such that I can get my favourites bouquet to stay at the top? Or should I somehow re-educate the family?
You can easily set your favourites to be the main (first) bouquet.
Just enable expert mode & work through the options.

Many thanks for that. I had it set in expert mode but hadn't realised that you could specify the main bouquet. I had managed to complicate things even further as I discovered that I was creating bouquets with both Freesat and Sky providers and my Favourites (TV) bouquet was ending up way down the list of bouquets. It's all good now though and a daily scan has now been scheduled .
Thanks again.
Hi.
Great job!!!
Is it possible to add more providers???
I have modified one provider's file:
but when i launch the scan i get the message "cannot read data"...Code:<provider> <name>Digital+ Astra</name> <protocol>fastscan</protocol> <!-- namespace could change even on the same sat... in case of use the service hacks to fix it --> <namespace>c00000</namespace> <transponder frequency="11038000" symbol_rate="22000000" polarization="1" fec_inner="4" orbital_position="192" inversion="2" system="0" modulation="1" roll_off="0" pilot="2" nit_pid="0x10" nit_current_table_id="0x40" nit_other_table_id="0x41" fastscan_pid="0x10" fastscan_table_id="0x40" /> <sections> <section number="1">Digital+</section> </sections> <servicehacks> <![CDATA[ if service["number"] > 999 or service["number"] < 1: skip = True ]]> </servicehacks> </provider>
is it correct?? or for this provider is it possible??
thanks and regards.
There were some changes a while back, as we have have no updates on teh 3.0 images, can somone upload the latest version with the updated xmls? People can the remove existing one and install the latest one. They are available on the other OE alliance images. I'd be grateful if someone can teach how do download it too? I can view the xmls on the GIT, but don't know how to download them.
I can download version 91 from receiver.
Thanks.

I hope I'm in the right forum for this post.
Autobouquetsmaker not working now in south west Spain/Portugal . They are no longer getting the BBC radio channel that ABM needs. Is there a work around?
thanks
