ChanSort supports various file formats from Philips (new), Sony (new), ITT, Medion, Nabo, ok., PEAQ, Schaub-Lorenz, Silva-Schneider, Telefunken (new), Hisense, Samsung, LG, Panasonic, Toshiba and the Linux VDR project.


ChanSort

Features

  • Reorder channels (change numbers directly, move up/down, drag&drop, double-click).
  • Use another channel list as a reference to apply the same ordering.
  • Multi-selection for editing multiple channels at once.
  • Side-by-side view of new/sorted list and original/complete list (similar to playlist and library).
  • Rename or delete channels.
  • Manage favorites, parental lock, channel skipping (when zapping), channel hiding.
  • User interface in English, German and partially in Turkish and Portuguese.
  • Unicode character support for channel names (Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, ...).

Some features may not be available on all TV models and channel types (analog, digital, sat, cable, ...)

! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK !

Most of this software was written without support from TV manufacturers or access to any official documentation about the file formats. It is solely based on analysing existing data files, trial and error. There is a chance of unwanted side-effects or even damage to your TV, as reported in 2 cases.

Hisense is the only manufacturer who provided technical information and a test device.

System requirements

  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 (Full): included in Win8, required for Win7, Vista and XP SP3.
  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86): required to edit SQLite lists (Hisense, Panasonic, Toshiba and Samsung .zip format).
  • USB stick/SD-card to transfer the channel list between your TV and PC (FAT32 file system recommended).
  • Some LG models require a special service remote control to access the import/export functions (see Wiki for details).
