3) Excel table: filtering groups By creating an Excel file you can filter the M3U file according to the groups and extract the part of the useful M3U code relating to the desired services retained. To do this, open a blank Excel table: 1. Fill in the formula below in cell B2:

Code:

=LEFT(MID(A2;FIND("group-title=";A2)+13;100);FIND(",";MID(A2;FIND("group-title=";A2)+13;100))-2)

2. Enter identically for cell B3, then pull down to duplicate the same duplicate code for applications to other lines (B4, B5, B6 etc.)

Code:

=B2

3. Fill in the formula below in cell C2:

Code:

=RIGHT(A2;LEN(A2)-SEARCH("µ";SUBSTITUTE(A2;",";"µ";LEN(A2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A2;",";"")))))

4. Leave blank for the formula in cell C3, then pull down to duplicate the same duplicate code for applications to other rows (C4, C5, C6 etc.) 5. Copy then Paste the content of the M3U without spacing (line feed) in column A, starting from cell A2. Here is the rendering of the Excel file obtained, with possible filtering on Column B (for groups):
