I agree, the playlist is nice because I can cull out the channels I don't watch, and move channels around. However, I still prefer the MAC method because if channels change (get removed or added), it's automatic with MAC. Plus I like to use the record/timer features on the BuzzTV that is only available through the MAC method. Can't set timers and record through any M3U software that I'm aware of.

next update you'll be able to do that

Able to do what? remove/move channels via MAC method on the BuzzTV, or set timers/record via M3U with third party software (which software)?

What would be great is if the server would renumber these to fit them in the US channel line up (since they're US channels) somewhere in the 100's or 200's instead of being in the 8000's. Unless you know the exact channel number (which most don't) you have to scroll through a bunch of foreign channels to get to the US network channels. If nothing else, put them in the single/double digit line up channels 1 through 20. The reason why they are in the 8000's is because the server is trying to match Dish Networks channel line up. That's all fine and dandy, but the 8000 stuff was because of the illegitimate MPEG2/4 receivers we used. Legitimate receivers have the networks in the single/double digits.

kens posted an m3u template awhile back that had all the Network channels located from 2 to 70, and from East coast to West coast.
Check here http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?3...he-SD-Channels
(just for reference, as this is not up to date, but shows how he added Null channels to acheive proper channel numbering in an m3u file.)

*Also, IPTVXtra2 relocates all the ntwk channels, as well.

That would be pretty cool. None the less, the server still needs to get the network channels renumbered out of the 8000's and get them in the US channel line up somewhere.

maybe you should get used to it
some servers are in alphabetical order

Then "ABC" would be at the beginning of the list wouldn't it, not in the 8000's.
