I have just got my new MediaLink box its all set up everything is running great on it. I wanted to know though whether i can add the HD FTA Channels on this like i had on my old skybox F5s. I know other hd channles are not avilable. but channels like sky news bbc one etc etc.
 
If you have the Open Vix image on your box, use the autobouquet to setup the channels they will be in the same order and numbers as sky. 141 BBC 1 HD 142 bbc 2 hD, 178 ITV HD and so on.

thanks but is it possible to have them so 101 is bbc one hd rather 141?
 
No not by using autobouquet, 101 in sky list is the SD channel. What you could do is move then manually. to swap the HD with the SD. has to be done in the favourites menu, go into all channels press the menu button and select enable move mode, select the channel you want to move press ok button then use the up down arrows to move the channel where you want it. once happy with your channel positions press menu again and disable move mode.

That was true until recently - can't remember exactly which ViX Apollo build it was but the old ZoomZoomLuke (renamed as Sky UK SD) list has now been incorporated into AutoBouquetsMaker, so if you select Sky UK (SD) in Providers, with FTA HD and Swap channels = yes - then it will place BBC1 HD to Channel 4 HD at 101 to 104 etc.

Edit to add:
For the remaining HD FTA channels to replace the SD you need to configure:
Menu/Setup/Service Searching/AutoBouquetsMaker/Configure and change the first option there "setup mode" to expert first.

Dan do you get setanta Ireland with your providers set like that? I have to allow sky rep Ireland or it don't show in bouquets.
 
Fezzer - no I don't get Setanta Ireland if I select the providers as shown in the screenshot above, but I do get Premier Sports channel in the Sports bouquet and this does show as Setanta on Saturdays :) for the 3pm matches. If people want the general Irish channels then yeah they'd have to select Sky Ireland and just hide whichever sections are duplicates of Sky UK.
