With SamyGO ChanEdit you can edit your channel list of your Samsung TV Set using any Computer able to run a Java VM supporting SWT. This makes moving channels around a lot easier. Also the list can be extended by channels that are not found by the channel search engine. For example Sky.de interactive channels, which the editor can add automatically when a list containing Sky.de channels is loaded.

SamyGO ChanEdit

With SamyGO ChanEdit you can edit your channel list of your Samsung TV Set using any Computer able to run a Java VM supporting SWT. This makes moving channels around a lot easier. Also the list can be extended by channels that are not found by the channel search engine. For example Sky.de interactive channels, which the editor can add automatically when a list containing Sky.de channels is loaded.

Channel Import/Export Menu

First you have to connect a USB drive with a FAT/FAT32 filesystem to your TV.

When the TV is switched ON press Volume Down Volume down key.png once and then press the Enter 30px‎ button for 10 seconds. This will display the "Channel Import / Export" Menu.

If this doesn't work, check that "Speaker Select" in "Sound Menu" is set to "TV Speaker". Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) should be disabled.

Channel Import / Export












Choose USB to TV for channeldata import or TV to USB for copying the channeldata to the USB drive.

When everything worked correct you'll find the following data on your USB drive:

kilroy@kilroy:~$ ls -la /media/USB2GB/T-CHLCIPDEUC/Clone/

Now you can edit the channel list (for the moment only map-CableD for DVB-C) stored on the drive using SamyGO ChanEdit.

After that just use the same procedure to import the list again.

WARNING! Do not remove USB drive before importing is finished. Let TV restart with USB drive connected to.

WARNING! You must keep enough free space on /mtd_rwarea partition to proceed channel list importing procedure. If there is too low free space, during USB-to-TV process error message will be shown. This may occur especially on TV's with extra files (software) installed in that partition. It shouldn't occur on "untouched" TV-set.


UE46C5105 (and probably other TV's from the C serie)

This TV have a slight different menu system than above described.

The "save to USB stick" is in the channel sub meny under "Antenna".

Also, Samsung does not save the channel files in a directory any more but instead all channel files are saved in one single file with the ending .scm

This scm file is an ordinary zip file so to unpack it the file have either to be "dropped" on WinZip (Windows) or feed to unzip. Another way is to rename the file so it ends with .zip instead of .scm and then open it with WinZip or feed to unzip.

The unpacking of the file recreates the above described file structure.

After the edition is done, zip together the content and rename it to .scm again.

Downloading and Installing

Download the SamyGO ChanEdit (and required Java library for you OS) from SamyGO Applications file download area.

Ubuntu 9.10 amd64

You have to download the files SamyGO ChanEdit-v0.31.tar.bz2 and SamyGoChanEd_lib-Linux-GTK-x86_64.tar.bz2
Ubuntu 9.10 is comes with openjdk-6-jre but you can also install Java from SUN (recommended).

# sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre
[ -d ~/bin ] || mkdir ~/bin
tar xjf Downloads/SamyGO\ ChanEdit-v0.31.tar.bz2 -C ~/bin/
tar xjf Downloads/SamyGoChanEd_lib-Linux-GTK-x86_64.tar.bz2 -C ~/bin/SamyGO\ ChanEdit-v0.31/
ln -s ~/bin/SamyGO\ ChanEdit-v0.31/SamyGoChanEd.jar Desktop/SamyGoChanEd.jar

Right click at the SamyGoChanEd.jar icon and select Properties -> Open With: OpenJDK Java 6 Runtime (or Sun Java 6 Runtime)

Microsoft Windows

To execute the channel editor you need two parts, the channel editor program itself and a support library called swt. The channel editor program can be found here SamyGO ChanEdit

The SWT library can either be downloaded directly from http://www.eclipse.org/swt or from SamyGo. For 64 bit swt library, you can check it out this page.


Unpack the downloaded files and place the both .jar files,SamyGoChanEd.jar and swt.jar, in the same director. These two jar files are the only files needed, there are other files and content in the downloaded zip/gz/bz2 files but they are not needed

Open a command prompt and enter

java -classpath .;swt.jar;SamyGoChanEd.jar gui.Main

The following example is on a Windows 7 installation, the java.exe file might be in a different place depending on the installation and operating system. If you get an error message saying that java is not a commando then you need to give the full path to the Java engine, like this

"c:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_23\bin\java.exe" -classpath .;swt.jar;SamyGoChanEd.jar gui.Main

Of course it is possible to create a link on the desktop and execute the same command line.

NOTE (Added 2011-04-09): There is another channel editor program here http://www.file-upload.net/download-2749294/chlpced-0.72-release.zip.html It is not a java program but an executable, it also read the .scm file directly, no need to unpack the file.

Modifying Channel List

You can modify your Channel list via SamyGO ChanEdit.

The files are under your USB at T-CHxxDEUC/Clone directory. With Version 0.31 currently only map-CableD for digital Cable Channels is editable.

Afterwards you can import the channel list to TV from the USB stick.
