Re: How to Delete channels from DM800

BM300 this is info that was needed to me for quite some time, since image that I use is very old and channel list updated for two years already so all those old channels unused are still there.
cheers

Using DreamBox Edit is wasting your time, because you spend time, a lot of time to edit and delete and other and save and send to the Box then with the first scan all unwanted and deleted canal would come back.

With DreamSet, the channels do not come back if you select hide feature.
They only come back if you select to rescan channels using the option of reseting.
You can always delete the transponders that have the unwanted channels from satellite.xml file.

normally, it works realy good, i often use it, when channels are inactive, to delete bouquets, change channel freq, etc it's very quickly.
Anyway, if you have any problem with softwere don't hesitate to tell us.

Re: How to Delete channels from DM800

Using DreamSet makes deleting the unwanted channels an easy job.
You have many options;
Download the channels list from your box to your computer.
* Put all these unwanted channels in a list called unwanted.
Sellect them all using the shift key on your computer.
Right click on the sellectd channels and select the Hide -> Yes.
Resend the list to your box and restart enigma2.

* If you rescan the satellite having these unwanted channels, they will still be hiden.

* If you want to see some of these channels (e.g. *****s content).
You need to hide -> No them before sending them to your box again.

* You can always have 2 versions of your channel list on 2 separate images on an external flash.

Re: How to Delete channels from DM800

you can try to go in in etc/enigma2
and delete everything
but not settings
if you delete settings then you shall reconfigure your sats and other stuff

tried that method, and its come back. it did take a while for it to come back.

I remember deleting everything in etc/enigma2 and it removed all settings including wifi encryption settings, is the wifi settings also in the 'settings' file?

I'll give that a try after it comes back again.

Re: How to Delete channels from DM800

when you have loaded the channels from dreambox
then u shall delete the channels you dont want
them you shall remember to save that list
when done you upload them again to db and then you shall use reload settings on dreambox
not Send Custom Telnet Command

the channel does not appear on dreamedit when you transfer it from dreambox to dreamedit even after that channel comes back,

its a channel that I manually scanned in the past and it keeps coming back randomly. its a useless inactive channel.

I can only get rid of by clicking send custom telnet

I know i can solve this by reflashing buts its too much hassle resetting it up.

Another big thing I should mention,

I have 2 dm800 connected to the same network and this unwanted channels comes back on both dm800. I always load fresh new bouquets on my dm800 and I dont know how can this happen.

Re: How to Delete channels from DM800

OK kind of sorted this problem,

Using DreamEdit
If I click 'Send Custom Telnet Command', it removes the unwanted channel from the 'All Channel List' and Removes the Provider folder where that channel was.

BUT the unwanted channel and the provider folder keeps coming back randomly, does anyone know why its doing this?

its not causing me a big problem but its just annoying.
