NO LONGER MAINTAINED

THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER MAINTAINED.

At this moment, I no longer have access to Samsung TVs, and I cannot test their latest models. For this reason, this project cannot provide further updates. Fortunately, there are currently better options, such as ChanSort.

SamsChannelEditor

SamsChannelEditor is a desktop application for editing a channel list from your Samsung TV. Now sorting channels should be much easier.

Support Samsung C and D Series.
Works with scm files directly.
Support for multiple channels configurations:
- map-AirD
- map-AirA
- map-CableD
- map-CableA
- map-SateD
- map-CDTVVD
- AstraHDPlusD
Support for configuration files (read-only)
- CloneInfo
- SatDataBase
Easy to use: Just drag & drop channels.

! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK !

This software was written without support from TV manufacturers or access to any official documentation about the file formats and is suppliedded "as is" without warranty of any kind, either express or implied. Use at your own risk.

Installation

There's no setup package, just download the zip file from SamsChannelEditor, extract all in a folder and execute ''samschanneleditor.exe''.

This application is written in C# so you need the .Net framework 4.0 (or newer) to be installed on your computer.

Source Code

Source code is aviable from GitHub

Build instructions: Requieres .NET Framework 4.8 Sdk

projectPath\source> nuget.exe restore
projectPath\source> msbuild SamsChannelEditor.sln /property:Configuration=Release

Bad file size error

Since version 0.9 you can define new sizes in SamsChannelEditor.exe.config. Just open with a text editor like notepad and add a new size for your file in section.

key: starts with "fs_" and after comes the channel file name (without "-" after map) value: is a number list separated by commas. Each number specifies a possible record size.

To calculate your record size:

change extension .scm to .zip
Extract all files.
Select file you are opening and look the size in file properties.
record size is a 1000 multiple (divide your size by 1000 or 2000)

Example:

<appSettings> 
   <add key="fs_default" value="292,320" /> 
   <add key="fs_mapAirA" value="40,64" /> 
   <add key="fs_mapCableA" value="40,64" /> 
   <add key="fs_mapSateD" value="168,172,194" /> 
   <add key="fs_mapAstraHDPlusD" value="212" /> 
</appSettings>
