Channel packages

About channel packages

Satellites can offer channel packages that bundle free channels (free-to-air) and offer a sorting that suits a country. Some satellites offer subscription packages - a collection of channels you pay for.

If you choose a subscription package, the TV might ask you to select a Quick or Full installation. Select Quick to install the channels of the package only or select Full to install the package and all other available channels too. We recommend a Quick installation for subscription packages. If you have additional satellites that are not part of your subscription package, we recommend a Full installation. All installed channels are put in the channels list All.

Update channel package

With Update channel package, you can bring back satellite channels that were in the satellite channel list before but are now missing. The missing channels were repositioned on the transponder by the satellite operator. The TV must be updated with the latest version of the channel package.

To download the latest version of the channel package . . .

1 - Go to the Philips support website www.philips.com/support and enter the type number of your TV.

2 - Click on Software and drivers and look for the file : PredefinedSortingList

3 - Download the file on your computer and copy the file on the root directory of a USB flash drive, not in a folder (if necessary, unzip the file first).

4 - Plug the USB flash drive into the TV and press h, select S Setup and press OK.

5 - Select Satellite settings > Channel installation > Update channel package and press OK.

6 - The TV will copy the file and ask you to start a channel update immediately. Select Yes and press OK. This may take a few minutes. If you want to postpone the channel update, you can do it later with Setup > Search for satellite > Update channels.
