Hello I did a new list with ChanSort but when I load it into my new TV (LG OLED65CX9) only a few channels appear Most channels I cannot see the list changes from the old one but only 5% of the new channels are visible what can this be? I tried to load the list several times

There is a really long thread about LG's webOS 5 (and specifically the CX series): https://github.com/PredatH0r/ChanSort/issues/172

TL;DR: One user has a CX model with Firware 3.11 and DVB-C, which seems to work in ChanSort when the channels were searched with "Provider: other" Another user has a model with firmware version 5.xxx and DVB-S and that does not seem to work.

I have no idea what models and/or firmware versions and/or input sources (DVB-C/T/S) actually work or don't work. My current impression is that webOS is in most cases simply incapable of importing lists - at least when there are already channels in the TV. Maybe (and that is unconfirmed) the import works after resetting the TV and clearing the internal channel list.

It seems that webOS 5 related issues are fixed when using recent versions of LG firmware and ChanSort.
