Excellent image so far, got to be the best commando yet, like the time in the bouquets, noticed it in the latest dreambox image and wanted it, and now i've got it.lol, pic as sharp as ever, chan change as quick as ever, very pleased

And the bouquet sorter, think that will be a big plus for all the lazy peeps lol.

Big thanks to all involved.

It scanned in 2mins 12secs here (ex c&w)

Got it installed and personalized. The main thing I don't like about the VM bouquets is having the smut between the movies and sport.

Not done too much wringing out so not noticed any bugs yet, although I did notice that the old EPG filter (from Late '08) is not compatible with the current sectionsd. Not a major problem as most peeps would use the supplied sample anyway

I agree, cydine. Waiting and waiting for a bug-fix on the CVS LCD-EPG, but we don't think it's gonna happen. Unless you can sort it? .....

So, much as it goes against our perfectionist ideals- decision was made to release 'as is' - but bug notified in the little readme that comes with C11.

There's some nice tweaks by FreddyFr0g and LraiZer in there, but the biggest step forward for UK Neutrino is your new Scan stuff. You're all honourary members of T-C (like me), coz all three of you have helped to make C11 what it is- and all the info is being shared with the other devs, creators and modders.

Cheers- and a big thanks, as per the Hall of Fame menu in the image! AL

I think that Sir Richie's rationále behind that, lincsat, is Mrs Dopey and her kids sitting there, idly channeling up and down from channel 1 on the R/C. Whichever way they go, VM have positioned the smut as far away as they possibly can, diametrically opposite BBC One, almost...

And by 'Sir Richie' - I wasn't referring to Renwich, LMAO!!

1st off im getting too old for this new stuff lol. Anyway cracking on. Everything seems "smooth" ie channel change is quick and also remote response "seems" pretty fast (which i like btw).
1 little issue im on ex TW and using the new scan feature i have several porn channels showing up in "other" bouquette (spelling sorry). This could end u an issue as im not sure the wife wants to see Gay TV but does like the VM music on demand service not to mention her absolute love of the PVR-Epg channel...(please switch you sarcasm meter on for that bit lol)
Overall a nice image and obv ive only had it on for a few mins but it does look the dogs danglies.

We must ALL remember (pure / TW / ex-C&W) that cydine's brilliant work has been sitting in T-C HQ for over 5 weeks now- and that since then, VM have done a lot of Channel shuffling and new transponders, service IDs etc.

This stuff isn't 'dynamic - on the fly' - it's all based on Scan feedback fed to cydine at that time. So regard it as a good starting point on which to build, with a few minutes work in Bouquet Editor etc.

It's certainly light years ahead of the previous create new option, which gave you 300+ seperate Bouquets, each containing one channel, and each with a totally incomprehenible bouquet name!

One day- cydine might work out how to use the background scan capability to keep this lot updated in real time- there again, he might not bother. The poor bloke has got a life to live as well, LOL!

Cheers- AL

You can remove GayTv (and other unwanted channels) with a myservices.xml file. I use it to remove unwanted BBC + ITV, Data Channels & Gay TV and also to add entries for the VOD (Teleport) channels

Mini-Tute coming soon!
