Hope you people can help. Got me second Nokia dbox2 with, but this has the latest sportster pro image on it. My other Nokia dbox2 has the older sporster 1.7uk image on.

On the older image I can switch between Favourite channels and Others, by pressing OK and the Left arrow on the remote. Also the Others list is in alaphabetical order.

So my question is how do I set up the same on my new box with the sporster pro image?

I know the menus on these images are quite complex, so would rather ask than play around with the settings and screw something up!
 
Blue button, add current channel to Favourite.
If the favourite bouquet is created use the bouquet editor and delete unwanted bouquets and add channels to your favourite bouquet.
 
Only get the sportster menu when I press the blue button but which has the settings/service options. The Green button on my old image used to switch between the radio and tv. Can these coloured buttons be assigned a function?

When I first recieved the box I did a service san and setup to Create New, should I have selected Update or Erase All?

Don't press the dbox button before. Simply press the blue button.
 
mgb m8 how do I display all channels in alaphabetical order for easy of viewing?
 
DBox button -> service, open the bouquet editor, delete all bouquets except that one you want, leave the bouquet editor via the home button, select save.
After that you should get all channels in alphabetical order in others, except that one which are assigned to a bouquet.

I'd try and find some bouquets and service files in the downloads and just ftp to the box alot easier. Most are set up well but it also depends if you can find one for your area.
 
Sorted people, just did a service scan and set bouquet to erase all. Once scan was complete was left with all channels in alphabetical order in one bouquet. After that first favourite saved sets up the favourite channels bouquet.
Not a good idea to service scan using Create New in the bouquet field!

Cheers for all your input.

One other thing I can't change is the name of the bouquet called Andre(All Channels list). When I try using bouquet editor, rename, save changes, then back using Home button it defaults back to Andre, I when to rename it to All Channels. Any ideas? Image is Sportster Pro. Anyone have same problem with this image????
 
Andere/others is not a real bouquet. Its a list for all channels which are not assigned to a bouquet. If you assign every channel to a bouquet andere disappears.
 
From my Helpfile:

Can I hide the Bouquet called andere/others ?

look for : /var/tuxbox/config/zapit/zapit.conf

and edit it with a proper editor and add the following to the end:

makeRemainingChannelsBouquet=0
