Hello,

I've created a simple to use Live TV channel manager. You can quickly manage your channels, groups and channels assigned to groups.

Windows only at the moment.

Please report any issues you have.

Here's a Youtube demo of how it works: https://youtu.be/yrPzH72OjKUa

UPDATE - Version 2.0.6

Includes...

*Channel renaming
*Create channel groups
*Add channels to groups
*Activate / Deactivate channels and groups
*SSH commands to start/stop and custom commands to networked OpenElec Kodi boxes

Instructions

BEFORE you run this on your database you MUST...

1) Stop Kodi running on the box.

2) Copy your TV29.db file anywhere you want to - you'll open this with the Channel Manager

Make sure you create a backup so you can roll back your changes if necessary.

1) Run KodiChannelManager.exe

2) Click Options -> Kodi Control

3) In the new window enter your Kodi network IP, username and password - this will only work with OpenElec versions as the moment - sorry

4) Stop Kodi

5) Click Copy TV database to copy your TV29.db file. You can name it anything you want as long as it has .db at the end

6) Close the window and in the main window click File -> Open and select your saved database file you just copied

7) Click File -> Open and locate your TV29.db file

8) Edit your channels and groups

9) Once finished editing your channels click File -> Save

10) Then go to Options -> Kodi Control

11) Click Stop Kodi to make sure its stopped

11) Enter your connection details and click Upload TV Database - if you used a custom name when saving your database file it will automatically rename and upload to TV29.db

12) Click Start Kodi

Done

Further help

Once the database has loaded you'll see all your channels at the top. Channel groups bottom left and Channels in Groups bottom right.

You can double click any cell to edit. Some cells which cannot be changed are locked from editing.

Channels

Here you can select one or multiple (hold down shift) channels. Deactivate or activate them.

Add Channels to Group

1) Select your Channel Group.

2) Select the channels (top) you wish to add

3) Click Add Channel/s to Group

Delete Channels from Group

1) Select your Channel Group

2) Select your channels in the Channels in group list

3) Click Remove Channel/s from Group

You can rename channel groups, create new ones and search for specific channels in the Search Channels filter box.

For example...

Create a Channel Group called Movies.

Select the newly created Group.

Type into the Search Channels filter box: movie

Shift select all movie channels you want to add and click Add Channel/s to Group

Rename channels

You can rename channels in the top window (all channels) or inside a channel group. Either action will rename the channel in all tables.

Please let me know your thoughts all feedback is welcome

Many thanks,
