LIve-TV Channel Switching Behaviour
#1
Hi,

I have a question regarding Live-TV channel switching behaviour:

When I press UP or DOWN in **fullscreen**, the channel switch is triggered immediately, resulting in a 5 second hang on my DVB-S2 setup. Is there any way for UP+DOWN to instead bring up the channel info OSD at the bottom of the screen, and browse channels there with up+down, and switch to the new channel once I press OK? MythTV frontend calls this browse mode.

If this is not possible, could there be an option added so that when you press UP or DOWN in fullscreen, live-TV is minimized and you get the channel list, and can browse there? I will try to emulate this by remapping keys/remote buttons, but I think for future versions a nice and clean option would be good. Immediately switching channels without confirmation induces long delays on most DVB systems and is not desireable in most circumstances.

And by the way, I'm really impressed with how smooth the PVR support is, it is just so nice to use with my mythtv backend, I can't wait for the Frodo release so I can go into production, wife will be pleased :-)

Thx and have a nice day!
