GEOSATpro Does anyone know how to convert an ali and udf satellite channel list to a downloadable file?

[skyscanner4ever]

Ok I have used the ali channel editor with my udf file and pulled up my entire channel list on the editor.

Now what I was wondering and have tried to do is somehow put this entire channel list into a downloadable file to where I could send it to a friend so he could see all my channels on fta.


Basically just want to know how to make my channel list on ali into a file.


thanks

There is a channel list print option in the Mediabox Editor Studio software. You could also export the file from MES as Text or Excel.

I am confused. Ok here is what i did step by step


1. I loaded my channel list of my micro hd.

2. I opened up the ali editor and brought up my complete channel list on there.

3. I hit save as and it created a file for me on my desktop.

4. whenever i click on the file all I get is a bunch of letters, no channel list or anything close to one, just tons of letters and junk


I tried the MES editor and whenever I go to open up my .udf channel list on there I get an error message saying invalid file format while opening?

I tried to use the channel list file I created with the ali editor by opening it with the MES editor, however when i do that I see my list flash on the screen in RED writing but it disapears and i cant figure how to pull it up!


I am thoroughly confused! all i want is to be able to make a downloadable file of my channel list so I can email it to people where they can just straight up open it and see my entire list of sats and channels.


thanks

Skyscanner, You could have your friend download a copy of the Ali editor and then email them the .Abs file I guess.....
They could open the file and look at it same as you or I would...I haven't used the other editor Brian mentioned so I can't help ya there
