    Hi there. Hope this is right forum/section for my query.

    I have a Finlux TV bought from Lidl, but tv info shows it is a Vestel MB211 2018 model.

    I have done auto-tune and got all Irish Saorview channels + free satellite channels. For 'missing' channels (such as Channel 4, 5 etc) I did a manual tune and managed to find those channels. However, many of the 'new' channels have high channel numbers (eg - 1028) etc and are not easy to find when I want to view. I can do on TV in single channel edit, but its a PITA!

    My question - is there an easy to use 'channel editor' available, so that I can download channel list to USB, edit into preferred list, and reload to USB for upload to TV? I have searched forum, but cant find answer.

    I'm reasonably computer literate, but not a PC or TV expert!

    Thanks in advance!

    I have a Walker, also made by Vestel, I use the Walker app to renumber my channels. There is a similar Finlux app, it takes a bit of playing with for the first couple of channels but after that you can renumber straight through the TV. The Walker app also gives a 3day sat epg and allows you set recordings when you are on the same WiFi.
