How to create a channel list for Openbox/Skybox S9, S10, S11, S12, M3, X3,F3, F4 & F5

I am putting up a video to show people how to create or modify an existing channel list that they have or one that
they want to create from scratch. The channel lists used in the video can be found in the following locations if
you wish to use them for your own base lists.

Unfortunately the video was slightly too big for maximum zip size to upload to Digital Kaos so I have had to upload to an alternate site :
Zippyshare.com (http://www66.zippyshare.com/v/34125428/file.html) (Size 37mb)

The software & Blank base channel list shown in the video can be found below:

I must say this is the best thing i have saw on DK in the 1000's of post's i have read.....My Apologies for all the other post's helpful they where....

even my 4 year old grandson could follow this tut....

Fantastic post mate ...

Updating a channel list after channel transponders are changed now a piece of piss :ridinghorse::tee::party :

Many thx Sattv5

[dpool]

Excellent tutorial Sattv5, save me asking a lot of questions...

one thing though, when i update the channel lists the favourite heading stay as group1,2,3 etc, how do i get them to change to what you have them name as without having to manually rename each one?? im using skybox f5....

[P&D]

I think its a manual job....unless you revert to an earlier firmware with the fav's named

[stuartygr]

I would like to take time to thank you for your excellent tutorial ( video ) and supplying the relevant software to teach & learn how to maintain the channel listings. I my self are new to this but computing & programming is my thing and i found this very rewarding as i learned how to do it instantly and you have answered many questions on how to. Thanks and keep up the good work, much appreciated :top:

Dpool,,,reset box back to factory settings, do not tick any boxes when asked to do so, eg CCcam.cfg. when box reboots you will have all the named groups.

thanks for that, must try it later and report back, one thing though if i factory reset can i then install the last firmware again or just leave it at the default firmware (its just there are some changes e.g. youtube update on the lastest firmware...

Also if i factory reset will i have to install my channel list and subscription line again?

how do i open dbs editor on my pc t edit channel lists? i have extracted the dbs editor zip but it has no extension to open up and use.

[sattv5]

when you extract the dbs editor.zip there will be a folder, in the folder is a file named PVR800-Editor_dbs.exe, click on this
If it is not downloading properly try a different web browser

thanks alot for that! i have been playing around with it and now know how to delete channels i don't want and arrange favorites.

do you know if there is any editor that lets you lock channels, move channels etc? not a problem if not, it can be done through the box but was just wondering.

Yes, the media box editor studio will let you lock the channels, double click on the name of the channel, and a new box will appear. Under parameters put a tick in the box lock. As for moving channels they are just drag and drop very much like windows explorer (drag the channel where you want)

you need to rename the file extension from dbs to abs
Import the file into Media Box and open using Ali generic no cas settings

What program are you using to play it?

Works fine on my Windows Media Player V11.

You could try downloading another player, such as VLC Media Player & try playing it with that.

[sizzler1966]

I have checked the link for the video and it's still working.
Click on the download button and download as I couldn't get it to play direct from the website ?
If it still wont work try installing VLC Media Player
VideoLAN - Official page for VLC media player, the Open Source video framework! (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html)

[Dawpor]

[digicon]

Should do as they share the same file system

[IscoDisco23]

my extraction files are unable to be read. They are unable to be read and when opened are just randon letters in a file.

Help

Are you using Internet Explorer? This can corrupt some zipped files.

Try downloading again using Firefox.

[IscoDisco23]

Mate was using Firefox. Just tried it again and nothing.

Is this the only way to create a channel list where I have all of my channels I watch under one list? As opposed to flicking between Favourites?

Strange. I've just downloaded the 3 files again with no problems.

AJ's list & CWAITE's list have the option to view all channels under 1 list or view under favorites.

This thread is about creating your own, or modifying an existing list.

[CrustyManMeat]

Awesome thread. Time to get stuck in.
