Almost useless for a motorised system.
It would be so nice to have the possibility to port channel settings from other STB receivers (DB or humax or...) and I do not understand why all the Samsung Channel editing even do not ave the possibility to add a channel (only deletion is possible).

Unlikely I'm not at all a good developer and I cannot improve it but .... ...it would be so nice...

The reason for that is quite simple:
To modify the channel number or delete a record, you only need to know a few details about the file format.
To add new channels you need to know the meaning of every single bit in the file. Anything done wrong could potentially damage the TV.
No TV manufacturer makes the documentation of the file format publicly accessible, so all the knowledge is acquired by reverse engineering and trial+error.

I understand... Thanks for the explanation.
It seems quite strange reason but I trust you.
That's possibly the reason why it is not possible to port anything from other STB's yet.

It is really a pity to have such a nice TV and not having the possibility to do much more on channels list.

Also the motorised system works nice but all the channels are thel almost impossible to be organised inside the system in such a way that they can be used.
