- fixed loading of some Philips 120 / 125 lists that complained about missing channels in MtkChannelList.xml
- put file name in Sqlite connect string in quotes
- improvements to Mediatek Philips 120+125/Sony serializer (physically reorder XML nodes, use flags stored in Java serialized blob)
- selecting a RefList changed the current working directory, which prevented .ini files to be found by loaders
- downgraded SQLite libraries to avoid a memory access violation crash in the SQLitePCL.raw 2.1.10 (causing at least Panasonic lists to crash on load)
- added support for \*.dbm files with size 782536 (e.g. Vantage VT-80 HD)
- moved "Save as..." and "Export reference list" to a sub menu as they caused frequent confusion with the regular "Save".

for this particular format to not only change the number but also change the order or data records in the file
- removed app.config files containing assembly redirects from projects and included them in the central Solution.props instead
- upgraded various NuGet packages
- Philips list versions 120 and 125 are now read-only because the TV ignores changes to the main channel numbers. Only favorite lists are imported correctly
- experimental support for MtkChannelList.xml (which is part of several MediaTek based Google TVs, e.g. Philips formats 120 and 125)
- Philips formats 100-125: improved decoding of non-latin characters (turkish, cyrillic, ...)

- "Tornado" TV lists which are a slight variation of old Philips lists using a file name __chtb_do_not_delete_.xml
- SignalSource.IP is now treated as a broadcast system (distinguishing Analog/Dvb/Ip) and no longer a broadcast medium (like antenna/cable/sat).

- fixed text input in "Favorites" column (for lists that only have favorite markers and not individual numbers)
- converted source code to use SDK/MSBuild project files (for future migration to .NET 7 or 8)
- channels can also be swapped now be directly selecting two rows and clicking on "swap"
- swapping mark (strike through) is now automatically removed after swapping
- swapping is now recognized as a change and will prompt to save the list on exit
- added "Pooling=False" parameter to all Sqlite connection strings to prevent open file locks after closing the connection and to avoid extreme delays when using CloseAllPools()
- C# code refactoring "using var" instead of "using ( ) { }" where possible
- fixed issues where SQLite database files didn't get unlocked after saving
- fixed quirks with missing e_sqlite3.dll when running unit tests with Resharper
- replaced misuse of "FileLoadException" with a custom LoaderException to handle file loading issues with better continue/fail logic
- removed "Save As" and replaced it with "Convert list" menu item that shows information on how to use a reference list instead of direct conversion
- replaced misuse of "FileLoadException" with a custom LoaderException to handle file loading issues with better continue/fail logic
- removed "Save As" and replaced it with "Convert list" menu item that shows information on how to use a reference list instead of direct conversion

- re-imported translation file (to fix incorrect letters in language names like "Русский")
- upgrade to DevExpress 22.1 libraries
- added experimental support for Loewe servicelist.xml format
- added polarity information to Excel export (and changed column order slightly)

(Lists with .bin files require that the .xml file contains all the same channels to override all channel numbers)
- Panasonic: improved symbol rate and satellite position detection
- startup window location and size are adjusted to fit on screen
- improved "column auto width" (right clicking a column header) by forcing line breaks in the column captions
- Philips: improved and re-enabled favorite list editing for FLASH\_\*/\*.db lists
- Panasonic: fixed display of symbol ra
- Philips: ability to read/write broken CM\_*.xml files that contain channel names with an unescaped & character
- Philips: enabled write mode for Repair\\FLASH\_\*/\*.db file format (one variant was confirmed to work)
Favorite lists for this format are disabled for now (TV ignored them).
- Panasonic: importing a modified svl.bin file caused the TV to use case-sensitive sorting when using the
function to list the names sorted alphabetically. This is now fixed.
- Philips: ChannelMap formats 100-115 did not always fill "Source" and "Polarity" columns correctly
- Philips: improved experimental support for Philips FLASH\_\*/\*.db file formats
(read-only by default, can be enabled in Philips.ini for testing)
- added Polish readme and updated translation (by JakubDriver)
- Philips: support for FLASH/*.bin DVB-T/C and preset DVB-S lists (mgr_chan_s_pkg.db)
- Toshiba: lists with chmgt_type001\\chmgt.bin can now be opened without zipping them
- Toshiba: selecting the hotelopt_type001.bin will now also load the list (if the type is supported)
- Alden: added support for "Alden" Android SmartTV channel list format (dvr_rtk_tv.db)
- lots of documentation around Philips lists
- working configuration for ChannelMap_100 variant with cmdb files (redordering confirmed, hide/lock/rename/favorites are best-effort)
- pressing the "Del"-key on the keyboard no longer deletes a channel when a text editor is open
- dragging a file (or something else) from outside ChanSort over the ChanSort window no longer creates an error
- opening a file containing a read-only channel list now shows the original numbers
".BIN" and ".BIN" to lowercase ".bin".
- Philips: Removing a channel from a list is no longer possible (because it is not supported by the TV's import).
When saving a file, all unsorted channels will be placed at the end of the list.
- support for Philips Repair\mgr_chan_s_fta.db lists is now read-only. Files can be used as a reference list,
but modifying them won't be possible.
unter File / File Information. (The TV seems to ignore bad checksums during the import and the official
Sony PC Editor ignores bad checksums and write incorrect ones, depending on the file format version)
- Updated Hungarian translation. Thanks to efi99 on Github!
- Minor cleanup amongst translation (setting @Invariant for constant strings and unifying "..." in menu items that open a new dialog)
- upgraded to latest Sqlite libraries to support ARM

- added "Settings / Reset to defaults and restart" function to delete the stored customized settings in case something
went wrong (like massively oversized column widths)
- Philips ChannelMap\_30: fixed error when trying to save this type of list
- Upgraded to DevExpress WinForms 20.2.7 user interface library
