Coolsat 8000 Channel Editor

[rrob311]

Hi does anyone know of a channel program for this receiver? I would like to experiment with it and save my channels on it. This is my main receiver for storing channels.

I dont think there is one

What format does it save the channel list as?
Old coolsats used the .ndf

 

[Mr Tony]

the 8000 uses a different menu setup than the 4/5/6000's did

Its a Coolsat name but totally different guts inside and the menus arent compatible with the 4/5/6000

if I knew the filetype I could search on euro forums.

other euro brands used the ndf files then they went to compressed format cndf

My Coolsat 7000 stores channel data in an fdu file which is not viewable in standard text editor. Added: SetEditFDU
