the Sly RED button

[shumifan50]

Has anybody implemented the Sly red button on their dreambox. Wayyyyy back I did have the channels for this button set up for a few channels, but I have lost the channel info. It would actually be nice to implement the red button on dreamboxes as it gives easy access to some additional sporting events etc. The channel info obviously differs depending on the channel for which the red button is pressed. There is also a channel that broadcasts the composite video ( tiled ) of what is available. If I have some time I will look into writing a plugin that will allow the switching - I have some code somewhere that does channel switching on a dreambox. It will just require wrapping the channel details in a GUI. But this might already have been done by somebody.
Any comments welcome.

dont (or didnt) premiere do a simular thing that works on the 'green button' on db, for movies sports etc. i swear this used to work on my 5620 (ive not tried on enigma 2 box yet)

am guessin that is done in a simular way as i could manually find the channels as well, but this did seem to use a base channel to start the navigation from...

cud this be emulated?

i for 1 dont miss the red button appearing all the time on the sly dodgyboxes, (and so does my gf) wow... the only nice thing shes said about it lolol

The red button stuff dont show up on the box atfer a scan as they are data channels. The sky sports acive and football first channels are from memory 1381 to 1399 and 1471 to 1479. I suppose changing all your data channels to tv type in DBedit would allow you to work out whats what. Some are numbered and some have a channel name. I think theres about 200.

Edit, nearer 400 lol

guys you'll find the Sly Sports Active channels in my Sly UK Bouquets list that I posted here. I put them in the Sports bouquet. 18 of them.

As for other channels, what are they ? Can we compile a list, then we can work together to get them all setup.
