    ibox 2 plus handling disappearing HD channels. what to do?

    Hi guys
    Just wondering what is the best way to set the box to ignore channels that have been prevented from use via the new systems implemented by sky recently. ie the disappearing HD.
    I use autobouquetmaker and in providers ive set my region. I need a way (if possible) for the boxs to know whats disappearing and ideally replace hd with sd for those particular channels. Rather than just using sd provider in settings. Can this, or some variation, be done? On a skybox its easy. Omit them from next channel update. What about boxs with ABM?
    Thanks

        set your abm to update sd only not hd,then maybe you can delete non working hd from your list and wont be updated.

        not sure if on that channel by pressing down arrow then menu and select from there.

            I dont think I can do the sd only as an update tho. Only as a full time provider option. Maybe I just dont update until time to use the sd only option. And delete as I go!? Except for moved channels. Thatd be the only thing. But then its just a case of going through after an updste and deleting the dead again.

            Edit sorry think I have it now
