    Are there any TV's where I can assign a mix of Saorview / Freesat channels to the same list / list of numbers 1 = RTE 1, 2 = RTE2, 3 = BBC1, 4 = BBC2 etc etc.?

    Kind of annoying having to switch tuners all the time (as i do with my Samsung TV)....

    Thanks.

    I find LG TVs to be the quickest. Long Press 1 for Saorview, Long Press 2 for Freesat

    You can get a Walker TV and manually chose your own order, but if a UK channel changes frequency, then you have to set it up again etc.

    I have LG and Walker, pro's and cons to both, the LG can be tuned as Saorview and Freesat, with 7 day epg, auto updates, but on separate lists, you can use the quick access. The Walker has all channels on one list, Saorview channels from 1 on, satellite channels from 300 but on the same list. Like as has been said, if a channel changes frequency, it has to be manually tuned on the Walker, it takes a couple of seconds.

    Instead of using quick access for Saorview & Freesat on the LG can you add them to the home scream simliar to how you access netflix etc?

    Any shortcuts for adding channels to the same list/ home screen on Samsung / Tizen OS?

    Sort of with Sony.

    You can have Saorview channels on one list and Freesat on another.

    However you can create a favourites list. You need to keep all Saorview together and then Freesat thought. But you can reorder within that.

    The issue I have is that I have to rescan the Freesat every week for the guide to load. And then they get dropped from the favourites. So not worth it.
