- added round-trip unit test for all loaders to check reordering channels and favorites, saving and reloading
- internal code clean-up regarding different favorite list modes (none vs. flags vs. ordered per source vs. mixed source)
- Toshiba settingsDB.db: support for lists without analog tuner data (missing TADTunerDataTable)
- Grunding: failed to load lists where the <Digital> element did not contain a <channels> child element
- W.I.P: reworking the reference list system so that a simple list of channels can be applied to the main channel numbers or a particular favorite list.
(The "Automatically reorder all lists" options currently does not work)
- 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
- 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.
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)
- 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
- 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
- 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
- fixed issue when saving Sony Android list with high program numbers (causing negative int32 values due to bit shift)
- for unknown DVB service types the UI now shows the number instead of an empty string
- loaders are now setting the OldFavIndex (to be consistent with the use OldProgramNr)
- Form shows full file path in title bar
- no longer defaulting to "swap" mode when opening a file and using "current order"
- show "Source" column in the left list when editing a mixed source favorite list
- constructor replaces empty masks with full masks (i.e. if no tv/radio/data bit is set, then all bits get set and the list can hold any such channels)
- DataRoot.GetChannelList(SignalSource) works now accordingly to ignore a mask when it is empty in the search criteria (as opposed to the list's SignalSource)
Added checkbox for Data/Other in the reference list dialog
- ChannelList.SignalSource and DataRoot.GetChannelList(SignalSource) are now handled so that if all bits of a given Mask are left 0, the list will accept anything.
i.e. if Tv/Radio/Data is left 0, the list can contain all of them as well as channels that have neither of the 3 bits set.
- added basic unit tests for each loader to ensure test files have the expected numbers of channels in the various sub lists
- LG GlobalClone: data/option channels were not listed before and are now shown in the TV channel list
- added function to copy list to clipboard (which can then be pasted into Excel or other programs)
- Samsung ZIP: deleting a channel now really deletes it from the file, instead of marking it as deleted
and assigning -1 as channel number (which appears as 65535 on some models)
(There are MANY different file formats, only a few are currently supported)
- fixed "most-recently-used" getting reversed every time the program was started
- added "UTF-8 (Unicode)" character set to menu
- fixed disappearing columns when loading different channel lists without restarting the application
- changed logic how channel lists can control which columns are visible in the UI
- added column for PcrPid
- removed column AudioPid from SCM lists
- added handling for SCM lists where the value of the "hidden" flag is 255. (Guessing the hidden-status based on another field)
- hide VPID and APID columns for Panasonic (no data provided)
- Samsung J lists could have a \0 character at the end of a unicode16 string, which caused "Copy to Excel" to truncate the text
- Fixed new-version check to work with github (only supports TLS 1.2 and newer now, not SSL 3.0)
- added pull-request with GB Sky reference channel list
- after loading a list it is now ensures that if IsDeleted => OldProgramNr =-1 and for fixing bad files: if OldProgramNr == -1 => IsDeleted = true
- while saving a list, if NewProgramNr == -1, the channel will be set to IsDeleted=true and temporarily gets a sequential NewProgramNr assigned, so that no "-1" or duplicate numbers end up in the file. Afterwards for deleted channels the NewProgramNr will be set back to -1.
- GlobalClone files now set IsDeleted and IsDisabled if a channel was removed
file format
- show error message when trying to open a .zip file that doen't contain
the expected files of a Samsung J series or Toshiba .zip channel list
- show error message when trying to open a broken .zip file, which is
most likely caused by exporting to a USB stick formatted with NTFS
- allow changing the "crypt" flag for Samsung .scm lists
- iterating through loaders supporting a file extension till one can read the file
- added feature to allow specific channel lists to define which data columns should be visible. This can be customized by individual file format loaders.
- upgraded to DevExpress 15.1.6
"hidden" and "skipped/unselectable"
- reference lists: the satellite orbital position is no longer used
to match channels. (Samsung J series does not provide that info).
- Samsung J series: favorite lists are no longer individually sortable.
(The same Pr# is used for all favorite lists).
- Samsung J series: deleting channels now physically removes them from
the file. (The TV might automatically append them again when it finds
them in the DVB data stream).
- Samsung J series: editing of channel names is now enabled.
- Samsung J series: favorite E is now also available
