- Philips ChannelMap_45: fixed handling of favorite lists (allow up to 8 lists, empty ones get removed automatically)
- Philips ChannelMap_45: no longer prompting to reorder channels sequentially (to close gaps).
(This feature caused DVB-C/T list to only contain odd numbers and DVB-S to contain only even numbers, when both exist)
- Philips ChannelMap_45: added display for service type (TV/radio), encryption, sat frequency polarity
- Philips ChannelMap_45: fixed display of DVB-C/T frequency
- Philips Repair\chanLst.bin (1.x): fixed sat frequency display for transponders with vertical polarity
and original number of bytes for hex-encoded Unicode names (channel name, fav list names)
- Philips ChannelMap_110: setting the "UserReorderChannel" flag in the file to 1
- Philips ChannelMap_45: fixed error when channel names did not match between tv.db and Cable/Terrestrial/SatelliteDb.bin
- fixed handling of reference lists (matching sat/cable/antenna, digital/analog, tv/radio/data criteria), especially for m3u lists which don't contain ONID-TSID-SID to identify channels
- Philips: fixed display of symbol rate and frequency (off by factor 1000 depending of list and DVB source)
- Philips: fixed special characters in channel names (e.g. german umlauts)
- Philips: "ServiceType" now only shows "TV" or "Radio". There is no information about HD/SD in the file.
- LG WebOS 5: added warning that support is only experimental.
- Panasonic: Channel name editing is now supported for svl.bin files (unless there is no indicator what encoding to use)
- Hungarian translation: added missing files to .zip
- added Hungarian translation (credits to Istvan Krisko)
- Sony XML: fixed display of wrong DVB-C cable channel/transponder number
- LG webOS 5: unfortunately no news yet, but the insight that some "CX" models run on webOS 3.6 and others on 5.1, using
different file formats.
- LG WebOS 5: fixed handling for deleted satellite radio channels (some TVs expect majorNumber 0, others 16384)
- "Open File Dialog" now works again when double-clicking on a shortcut to a directory (.lnk file).
- DevExpress library update
- Philips: added support for analog channel lists (Repair/CM_* format)
- GB Freesat reference lists updated
- Hiding "Favorite" column when the list doesn't support favorites
currently supports:
- read and write of satellite channels (incl. sorted favorites and "locked" flag)
- read-only of digital cable/antenna files (still missing transponder information)
directory.
(Philips exports the .xml file with file attributes "hidden" and "system", which makes them invisible to Windows Explorer)
- upgrade to DevExpress 20.1.6
- Samsung .zip loader: auto-detect UTF-16 endianness and allow to change encoding after loading to UTF-16 LE/BE
(some files use Little Endian format and show chinese characters when loaded with the default Big Endian format)
- Customized column order is now preserved across file formats and input sources
- Note about LG WebOS 5 files (e.g. CX series):
It is still unclear what exact firmware version and conditions are needed to properly import a channel list.
Users reported about varying success of an import, reaching from not possible at all, only after a factory reset,
importing the same list twice or working just fine.
The problems is not related to ChanSort, as it can be reproduced by exporting a list to USB, swapping channels
in the TV's menu and trying to loading the previously exported list back. The TV may keep the swapped channels and
show inconsistencies between the channel list in the settings menu and the EPG.
- upgrade to DevExpress 20.1.4
- aded NUnit test to compare original and modified file and ensure only expected changes are made
- added DevExpress Data.Desktop DLL is now with 20.1 to start the application
during the TV setup or channel search
- fixed: Sony KDL channel lists were not saved correctly
- upgrade to DevExpres 20.1.3
- Loaders can use Api.View.Default.MessageBox(...) to show a DevExpress themed message box without adding a reference to DX libs
- NO favorite list support
- UNCLEAR behavior when the list contains channels from multiple sources (DVB-C/T/S) - so far only files with a single source are supported
- Philips: combined DVB-C and DVB-T into a single list with a common number domain
- added exprimental support for Samsung "iptv" list
- added Suiss reference lists with Astra 19.2E + Hotbird 13.0E channels
- fixed "System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException..." when opening a file which supports mixed-source favorite lists
(Sony, Philips, Hisense, ...)
- System requirements changed: .NET Framework 4.8
- added high-DPI support
- added Accessibility menu options to change the UI font size
It seems that when a user changes a program number through the TVs menu, it creates a cloned record and sets the SRV_EXT_APP.recState=1
So when there are 2 channels with the same program number, the one with recState=NULL should be ignored
- fixed applying favorites from a reference list (it showed fav letters on the channels, but the fav lists were empty)
- added Polish translation (thanks to Jakub Driver!)
- potential fix for Samsung 1352.0 format, which can contain channels marked as deleted
- fixed non-unique numbers in mixed-source favorite lists when using "Add to Fav A" (Panasonic, Hisense, Sony, Philips)
- function to reorder channels from 1-x is now reordering all channels when only a single one was selected
- function to sort channels by name is now reordering all channels when only a single one was selected
- support for Hisense channel.db format of the H50B7700UW, which has a different schema in the fav_x tables
- added spanish translation to distribution packages
- LG GlobalClone: some changes that might fix problems where the TV didn't work properly
with an importet list (ChanSort now modifies less data in the file)
- Menu items for hide/unhide, skip/unskip, lock/unlock are now disabled when these features are not supported by the
channel list file format
- Applying a .txt reference list (which doesn't contain information about skip/lock/hide) will no longer clear these
flags in the current channel list
Selecting any .xml or .bin file in the folder will now load all DVB\*.xml files from the
channellib and s2channellib sub folders.
The Loader can now return multiple file names to the MainForm that it will use for backup/restore.
