Probably my "need" arises because I'm trying to use kaffeine as a Set
Top Box. In particular I use a remote where only digits are available,
so channel numbering is quite important, and it's very boring to
manually sort almost 100 channels. Besides the fact that MUX are changed
quite often, so one has to re-do the job quite often.
Maybe I'm just using kaffeine for the wrong puropose (for instance,
program recording or egp scheduling is not supported via dcop/OSD...)
Would you be interested in improving (maybe with my help?) that part of
kaffeine? I find kaffeine much better than other alternatives, because
it's easy to use and... it just works! (channel scan, adapter
recognition and so on...) But maybe we can add a few features about the
10-foot user interface.
Regards,
Alfredo
