I recently bought 2 LG TVs and when I tried to edit the channels I get an error when opening the file generated by the TV.

No plugin found to read/write C:\TV\xxUS662H9ZC.TLL

Ill attach the channel file xxUS662H9ZC_9.TLL.zip

I dont know if its a file issue. The TV has firmware 4.64.40

I can open your .TLL file without problems. What version of ChanSort did you use? (the number/date can be found in the window title) The latest official version can be found here: https://github.com/PredatH0r/ChanSort/releases/tag/v2023-01-10

There will most likely be another update today or tomorrow, but with nothing that affects LG lists.

I’m using the latest version available. Files from older tvs can be opened without problem. Is there any recommendation for where the program should be unzipped?

Regards, Gabriel Bolea

Location shouldn't matter. I downloaded the official .zip now in a virtual machine that doesn't have any development tools installed. My suspicion was that a required DLL might have been missing, but that doesn't seem to be the case. There were no issues to open your file.

One thing that might cause it, is some 3rd party anti-virus tool or strict windows security settings that block DLLs that were downloaded from the internet. If you use 7-Zip to extract ChanSort, the files won't have that "downloaded from internet" tag. Extracting with Windows Explorer or WinZip does set that flag. On my machine I only use the standard windows defender. Both 7-Zip and Explorer's "Extract all" worked fine to load your file.

Ok I’ll give it a try and see. I’m also on an Windows 11 VM on a mac, as it’s ARM version shouldn’t be any issue also, right?

Cumprimentos, Gabriel Bolea

ARM might actually be the cause. For LG webOS6 the Newtonsoft.Json DLL is used to parse the file, which isn't needed for all older formats. I'll have to look if that DLL works for x86/x64 only.

PredatH0r commented 1 year ago

From what I could find, that DLL should work just fine with ARM too. I have a m1-MiniMac standing around and will try to set up VirtualBox and Windows 11 on it over the weekend to see if I can replicate the problem there.

Ok so little update. I extracted the zip file with 7zip at C:\ChanSort. Looks like now I can open the file. Thank you for your help.

Thanks, that's great news. I'm currently in the middle of installing Win11-ARM on my m1 MacMini for testing. Just out of curiosity, what VM System are you using? VirtualBox was a dead end, now I'm trying UTM, which seems to work fine so far.

I’m using Parallels Version 18.1.1
