I would like to delete the number of TV stations recieved in my channel list

...if you whould hide it (why delete it? ) you can simply right click on the channel list and click on "Show channel number"...

I dont think I made my self clear. (english not first language)

When I have DVB watching,. When I go to time line I have hundreds on channels eg bbc1 anglia, bbc 1 central, bbc1 meridian. I want to set DVBViewer to show me just one bbc Channel (BBC yorks). Therefore I want to delete all the others.

 

I tried to set numerous channels to favorites and this has helped but unfortuatly I have set some channels to favorites which are not favorites and now I cant delete them from favorites. Is there any way to delete channels from favorites.

Click on:

• menu "Channel"

• item "Channel editor"

• button "Edit Fav."

• select the channel you wanto to delete

• press the middle bottom button (it show a little recycle bin) to delete

• remember to save the edited favourite list with the next button (the little floppy disk)

Many thanks for your reply - but there is a problem. When I tick on "Channel Editor" nothing happens (apart from a tick appearing next to it) there isn't any "Edit Favorites" to edit.

 

 

 

• menu "Channel"

• item "Channel editor"

• button "Edit Fav."

• select the channel you wanto to delete

• press the middle bottom button (it show a little recycle bin) to delete

• remember to save the edited favourite list with the next button (the little floppy disk)

Ah, I think I got the point...

 

• close DVBViewer and go in the prog folder (normally C:\Programs\DVBViewer)

• open the file file setup.xml with Notepad (or similar plain text editor)

• search for "frmChannellist"

• edit the value of this two line, setting "0" in both

<entry name="X">0</entry>

<entry name="Y">0</entry>

save, start DVBViewer and enjoy...

Again many thanks for you reply. I have tried this but still no luck - any other suggestion

 

• close DVBViewer and go in the prog folder (normally C:\Programs\DVBViewer)

• open the file file setup.xml with Notepad (or similar plain text editor)

• search for "frmChannellist"

• edit the value of this two line, setting "0" in both

<entry name="X">0</entry>

<entry name="Y">0</entry>

save, start DVBViewer and enjoy...

Hmm, The plot thickens. I have installed an old version (3.2.6) and I am able to delete and amend my channel listings. But when I install the latest version I am not able. I'll play around a bit more and if I dont get anywhere then I'll submit a bug report.

...it seems that a solution is to write down the entire missing "frmChannellist" section from an old installation...

I think you can place it everywere in the Setup.xml, but originally it is right before the "frmAbout" section...

 

This is an example of how it could look:

 

<section name="frmChannellist">

  <entry name="X">100</entry>

  <entry name="Y">100</entry>

  <entry name="W">300</entry>

  <entry name="H">600</entry>

  <entry name="Headerheight">49</entry>

</section>

In DVBViewer click on Help -> Configuration Folder. It opens an Explorer window. There you can find setup.xml. Close DVBViewer before changing this file!
