I have to check how vdr references channels... No, just editing won't harm, but if user deletes a channel or just moves it out of AutoSort-Section the channel could be reapear the channel could be double the hole thing could crash But i stop thinking here - i try. > >> I really don't know how I could live without that plugin.

Rejected - that good old idea doesn't need a transponder separation, it can be done completely automated as dicussed here a long time ago. >- I have only 1 card. If channels are ordered by freq, I can see with >channels can be recorded at simultaniously. Confirmed I give highest priority to the 'complete-run-for-config-debug-button' that seems to be the hardest entry problem, let see what comes inbetween. Thorsten
