Sorting channels into groups (UK Standard) (1 Viewer)

[Sam Woods]

Hi,

First of all can I just say what a great program Mediaportal is! I'm only just starting to get to know it but have so far been very impressed with its broad functionality, stability and the support community behind it.

I've recently installed a DVB-S2 card and have managed to get it all working etc. Problem is, the scan has found 900+ channels and many of them are unnamed (only numbered) or duplicates. I would like to sort them into groups as they might appear if they were being viewed through a set top box, sky box or similar but rather than sort through them manually with my tiny HTPC keyboard I'm hoping there is an standard UK channel list/grouping xml file I can download and import into Mediaportal?

This is the sort of logic I am looking for:

Many thanks!

Hi Sam, I think the plugin in this thread might do what you want: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...abber-with-plugins.96767/page-117#post-858120

Ok, got a slight hiccup. All seems to have gone well and the channels are now perfectly grouped and ordered. However, there is no EPG info for any channels... Am I missing something? I followed the instructions to the letter...

Ok it appears to be working no so no worries. Thanks again.
