Channel list - manual buttons not correct

[zece87]

Hi all, forgive my naivety, had an openbox before getting a VU+ Solo2 so I'm learning!

I've managed to download a channel list with sky channel numbers so the channels are in the order I'd like BUT... on the EPG it says the following:

1 101 BBC One HD
2 102 BBC Two HD
3 103 ITV HD
etc

So, when I type the numbers on the remote, they don't go to the correct channel e.g:

Type 501 on remote (for Sky News) and it goes to channel 838

I know the info is a bit rough, but if anyone can help I would really appreciate it!

Thanks all.

Right, a bit of an update..

I went through some settings and got to autobouquets, did a scan and it changed the channels to the correct numbering... but they are the exact sky list, so obviously Sky Sports 1 HD doesn't work etc, how can I go about changing that without spending hours swapping around?

Thanks!

Why would you want to?
The VU+ Solo 2 is a far better quality receiver than a Sky receiver, and it allows you to do so much more. Why not just set up User Bouquets, Favourites, with themed channels, Films, Music, Entertainment, Music, Children's, Do***entary, etc......
You could also use the Dreambox tools, like Dreamboxedit, to move your channels rouns, delete channels, re-name them, etc....

You might also want to consider getting a motorized dish, if you haven't already, to get the most out of your receiver.

I think it's more for the fact that we're so used to the sky numbering that we want the channels the same numbers but have the benefit of it on a VU+ box rather than a sky box!
