If you are setting up a Philips TV for a bar, hotel, or waiting room, the Channel Editor works in tandem with "Hotel Mode." Once you have edited the perfect channel list, enable in the settings (usually accessed via 123654 or specific remote codes). This locks the Channel Editor list permanently so guests cannot rescan or move channels.

Before you can use the editor, you must get the current channel data onto a USB drive.

Extremely slow for large lists; limited to creating a separate "Favorites" view rather than reordering the "All Channels" list. 2. Philips CMND (Professional)

With Philips moving toward Google TV, the definition of "channel" is changing. While the traditional works for DVB inputs, Android TV users can also edit IPTV channels (via apps like TiviMate or OTT Navigator). Philips does not have a native IPTV editor, but third-party apps on the Play Store mimic the functionality perfectly, often allowing you to import m3u playlists and edit them via a web browser on your PC.
