M3u export question

[warrentc3]

is there a query parameter that can affect the sorting of the channels in the m3u export?
for example, i would much rather export with sorting by channel number, especially when using devices/ANY where the ordering displays by channel number, but grouped by source.

I don't know if there is a direct API to do what you want, but this python script works really well to create a spreadsheet of all of your channels. Then you can sort it anyway you want. It assumes you are comfortable with running a python script.

Python script: channel list -> CSV file to easily see where channels are available

I wanted to have a clear overview of channel overlaps between the different sources so I wrote a python script that generates a CSV file with the information. If you open the CSV file with a spreadsheet program, you can format the display nicely and add filters. For example: [image] 7 channels are available in 4 different sources: [image] 60 channels are available in 3 sources (showing the first 10): [image]

thanks for sharing…
i’ve actually built a pretty complex powershell process for tidying things up that i’ll share one day soon.

this was a direct inquiry to see if there’s a parameter that can be added to the query string on export.
if not that’s fine, will just have to add another step on to the end of my script.
