To quickly change the channel numbers of your stations, Guide Tool will still be necessary (for now). EPG123 can only link channels to lineup stations, change channel call signs, and enable/disable guide channels.nairnmonster wrote:So I had a drive die and have to rebuild... So I found my backup of guide tool, but after reading on the new EPG123 update. It says there is no need for GT anymore.
But I am at a loss on how to re-arrange channel order within EPG123 like I could with GT. Doing it in MCE is a long and tedious proccess.
What am I missing?
Thanks a lot.

It works great! Can you do the same for the 1.2.5 version?DanITman wrote:Since the project seems to be abandoned, I modified the EXE so that its activated. This is for version 1.4.
With no feedback from Fredx21, my plan is to create a key generator for all versions to "activate" Guide Tool... this is something in my toolbox I can do. What I have no idea how to do is what DanITman just did and determine which bits to change in the executable to get there.StinkyImp wrote:It works great!

I can confirm the executable works and the features are available. Good Job!
What did you use to decompile? I see you did exactly what I asked fredx21 to do, or I would do if fredx21 shared the source code, and just set the flag=true in the CheckIsActivated() function. I'm using .NET Reflector to decompile the code, but didn't work too hard to get it to a point where I could recompile.DanITman wrote:A keygen sounds awesome but also sounds like a lot of work I decompiled the exe so if you want to complete your keygen, let me know.
Do you have to tools to repackage the install files and include the hacked exe?
I've extracted the contents of the "GuideToolSetup.1.4.exe" file and replaced the "GuideTool.exe" with Dan's. I can create a new installer but I'll have to run fredx21's installer to see exactly what he's creating/writing to (run a diff program during install) before I can create a new one.garyan2 wrote:I don't have anything to modify installation packages.
As well as selecting which version of GuideToolAddin to use based on OS version, and registering the dll?DanITman wrote:I don’t believe the installer does much beside creating a director and verifying .net version.
