MAC connection vs M3U

by Just_Me19

I have been using m3u connections in tivimate for a while. I like that I can easily edit the m3u in m3u4u and remove channels I dont want. I also like that I can sort the channels so that the channels I most frequently watch are at the top of the line up. Further, I like the m3u4u epg better than my providers and finally, I like that I can take channels from say the sport group and place them in other groups. As a result of all these features, I am reluctant to leave m3u type connections.

Now I am noticing that many providers are going away from m3u to MAC connections. Is it possible to do any of the things that I can do in the first paragraph with a MAC connection?

Will I be stuck with my providers epg? Is it possible to resort, delete and regroup channels with MAC connections?

Thanks for any help

Where did you notice providers are going away from m3u? MAC connections are usually provided by xtc too. Once you have Mac connection, in most cases you can easily fetch the m3u from it.
