Sub-Forum for Satellite Mappings

[NumberFive]

Hi,

Would it be possible to get a sub forum organised, and perhaps even a programmic change to GBPVR, to make it easier to find satellite channels through user updated catalogues?

To make my idea more clear, I'd love to have a system whereby periodically I can just download a file from the forum named, say "Freesat_UK.sat", that would setup GBPVR's Freesat Tuning requests and assign the correct channel numbers. Whenever mappings change, a kind user can update his profile and upload the new definitions to the community. Perhaps a function on the tuning screen to, instead of scan from channels, to import tuning requests from a file??

Now to me this seems very obvious in that it'll save countless hours and headaches doing manual scans and channel mappings, but I'm guessing the fact it hasn't been done is because it's very difficult to programme?? Any thoughts?

Thanks

There was a utiltity to do this sort of thing
Where I could export my channel mapping from gb pvr database ( for example if you had a dual tuner you could config one then export the data and import it
to the other part of the tuner)

But I have tried the util and it messes up when importing , the channels get mapped to the wrong tuning request :-(

I know what you mean , I wish they would stop moving channels about , the gits
