    Yes, Autobouquets will sort them for you. Set up bouquets, entertainment, news, kids, music etc..

    What is the story with channel numbers? Is that all in autobouquets aswell?
    By the way a big thanks for preventing me.from.selling out and getting an inferior product. I can see the potential now :-)

    Please forgive this one!!:)
    In order to receive saorview I installed a dvb-C/t tuner. So now I have, in tuner config) A,B&C. Correct?
    A,B satelitte ok. What should C be set as? Dvb-C or dvb-t?
    Now the stupid part.... Is it only the ariel lead that I put into the back of tuner C?
    Then if I go back to earlier advice above and do a scan, will the saorview channels appear alongside the sat channels?

    In Autobouquets setup menu you have the option of inserting channel numbers or not.(Insert Channel Nos = yes or no.
    Personally I say no. But that's your choice.

    When Autobouquets is installed and you have set up bouquets, I recommend removing the first default bouquet. Also in setup menu say Default Bouquets = no.

    Dtt gives you 3 tuners. AB and C. dtt being c. Set to DVB-T (t= terrestrial)
    Set for european t not Australia t or other options. Then Do a scan on c tuner. The channels will appear under terrestrial. You can add them to your favourites so they appear alongside your satellite channels.
    Yes just plugin your aerial lead.

    Did you get your WIFI working:

    Get It going by going into SETUP-NETWORK-DEVICE SETUP-WLAN CONNECTION-ADAPTER SETTINGS. entered your encryption key on this page and saved the settings. Restarted your box and then try the network test.

    Back again...everything running smooth with my basic setup. STILL not connected to internet but just found out that there is a problem with my modem...couldn't figure that out as it is working and I'm using it for streaming etc but it turns out that it couldn't handle more then one device (odd) so new one on the way :)

    Came across this guide to assist you on getting your 7 day tv guide working correctly. This is the tv guide I use and it works flawlessly.

    You do not need to be connected to Internet to set this up.

    The CrossEPG Open Providers (or specifically the one for Sky UK) is what you'd use. These pull EPG data from the transponders.

    You need the net for the others.

    Again, use the Sky Open TV - it doesn't need the net.

    Here's a real funny and downright stupid question... Been messing around with wifi and while trying (again) to connect.I eventually ended up in adaptor settings, it looks like where I want.to.be BUT it is asking for my security key, great, but when.I try to enter it I can't.. Usually using the remote u get sone option or way to delete field and enter correct password...I can't seem to do this, any reason why or am I just blind and not seeing it?

    Found this video. It shows how to setup autobouquets (Not autobouquetsMaker)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=wnxuFhzg708

    Howya again I followed the instructions on the video but all I get on the blue button is my favourites list, that I made, but no sub folders (kids, nesw etc).... But I do have most of the on demand services without trying :-) Again I appreciate the help and advice you are giving me, I know it can be frustrating explaining to a brick.wall..:)
    A bit .of playing around and I have the picons on the epg...can they be got on chanel list?

    If you have it setup correctly, then while watching tv, press blue button, This should bring up a "Please choose an extension" list. Choose AutoBouquets Downloader.

    Wait about 1min. Then try find your bouquets

    Did all that and still the same. Pics attached, I don't know why

    2 questions.

    On second picture when you press blue button there do you not see bouquets?

    If Not

    Post photo of the autobouquets config menu. IE in autobouquets press menu, take photo and post it here please, so I can check that all is as it should be.

    As a matter of interest what channel appears when you type in ch101?

    Ok, Few things to check.

    1. Change your Pli placeholder setting in autobouquets.
    2. check tuner config to make sure it matches 1st attachment below
    3. Go into Autobouquets via Service searching/autobouquets and press green to start, See if you see image in attachment 2 below.
    4. Then after about 50 secs see do you see image in attachment 3 below. If not what error message do you see?

    Image 2&3 when I press blue button, either when on chanel or after pressing enter then blue button.

    Not quite sure what your saying above.

    Check that your 2 sat tuners are connected correctly. Easiest way to check is to record bbc1 and see can you watch itv1 at same time.
