Changing satellite.xml file

[doubleudee]

Question?
When you change just your satellite.xml file, do all the settings related to your 'favourites' and other tv channel settings get updated automatically?

e.g.
Let's say a channel changes it's frequency, for example BBC1 moves from frequency settings 'A', to frequency settings 'B'.
Now if I have BBC1 in my 'favourites' as well as in my 'FreeToAir' categories of channel settings, and I download a new updated satellite.xml file from [satellites-xml.eu] and overwrite my file on my box, do the settings for my BBC1 channels get automatically updated, or do I have to update each one myself again through DCC or whatever?

Any enigma box should handle any changes automatically.

Hi doubleudee
If you change the xml file, provided that the change to the channel doesn’t involve a frequency change enigma2 should handle it OK after a sat scan, but with a frequency change and a scan it will show up as a new channel and you will have to copy it over to your favourite list and delete the old one.

Thanks both.
