Channel numbers are *numbers*, *integer* numbers! There's a first channel, and a second one, and a third one, and they are numbered 1, 2 and 3. Now what's a "2.1" channel? Is that "ten percent more than the second channel"? VDR stores channel numbers as integers. So if you want to have a numbering scheme where you have channels "between" other channels, you need to make room for these additional entries. And the only way I see to do this is to shift all numbers one digit to the left.
