[QUOTE="SwissBuster, post: 294100, member: 78168"] I found a workaround to get the 'red button' services. For BBC 1, the red button channels appear in the TV channel listing as 'Stream-0' to 'Stream-6'. In the TV server config, I added these to a new TV group called 'Red Button'. I sorted the channel order and renamed the channels so that the first channel in the list was called 'BBC 1 multi-screen' (from memory this is Stream-6) followed by 'BBC 1 red button 2', 'BBC 1 red button 3', etc. One of these streams (stream-1?) is the normal BBC 1 channel so I deleted this from the group. When watching TV, if I want to go to the red button service, I just select 'change channel', press 'right' on the remote to switch to the red button group, then select the feed I want. It should actually be possible to map these key presses to a macro for the remote control, but that's getting too clever for me. You could do the same thing with BBC news; the multi-view screens are channels 'T7 STRM-0' and 'T7 STRM-1'. I haven't found the corresponding feeds, and I won't because I don't use this service.
