About ChanSort
-------------ChanSort is a PC/Windows application that allows you to reorder your TV's channe

or SD-card,
which you can plug into your PC.
ChanSort currently supports various models from Samsung, LG, Panasonic, Toshiba
and the Linux VDR project.

ck)
- Use another channel list as a reference to apply the same ordering
- Multi-selection for editing multiple channels at once
- Side-by-side view of new/sorted list and original/complete list (similar to pl
