Update transponders list

Seems fastsatfinder is no longer updating (most recent is July 2017). There are sites that generate satellites.xml format but that is not compatible here. 1) Can you make ProgDVB use standard xml format 2) Any way to convert/import from the xml?

Thanks.

Yes, I can support this format. What sites you use for generation?

Simplest would be to import satellites.xml or even better yet, if Progdvb supported satellites.xml directly instead of the all.list file. Then I just download latest satellites.xml and save in prog folder

Yes, it is clear. But how many users guess put xml file to folder? I think not many...

Ok, so users don't know how, so add an option on the menu to "Import updated satellites/transponders" and do it for us please. Can you implement something like that? I am c# dev maybe I can help you?

https://satellites-xml.eu/ is gone.

Any chance you can implement import of satellites.xml? or even .ini files? Need something to update all.list without having to manually edit it 1 sat at a time please.
