5.d Provider functions
First you have to select the provider you want to modify. You will see all channels that belong to this provider.
To assign one or more channels to this provider please select the channels and drag them with the mouse to the provider name.
You can also change the provider of a channel in the channel data menu, (see chapter 3.e).
You get most functions if you click with the right mouse button on the provider list. You will get the popup menu of the provider list.

Change name: Here you can change the name of a provider. You also get this by double-clicking on the provider or by hitting the Enter key.
View sorted by: The providers can be shown in original order or sorted alphabetically.
New: Here you can create a new provider. You get the same window as in the "change name" function.
Delete: Here you can delete a provider and all channels that belong to this provider.
Delete all empty providers: Here you can delete all providers that don't contain channels.
With Remove provider you can delete a provider from the provider list, without deleting the channels too. The channels, which used this provider, will stay in the channel list, but they don't belong to any provider anymore. They are assigned to the provider "---". This provider does not appear in the provider list of the receiver.
It is not possible to change the order of the channels within a provider list independently of the main channel list.
To change the order of the providers within the provider list please use the drag & drop function or hit the ctrl key, keep it pressed and use the arrow keys (or Home or End) to move the selected provider.
If a provider only contains radio channels, it is shown in the provider list with a green background. Providers with only TV channels have a blue background colour. If a provider contains both channel types, it is shown with a white background. Empty providers are marked with a red background colour.
In the frame of the provider list there are several uppercase letters for the following functions:
F: The provider list is fixed. That means it does not jump to the provider of the selected channel.
S: The provider list scrolls to the provider of a selected channel.
O: The provider list is shown in original order.
N: The provider list is shown in alphabetical order.
