So what happens when the sub number was 2.10 is it now 21? And 2.11 becomes 21? I don't understand why there are such numbers to begin with. Why not just map 2.1 to the next available open number, giving the user the choice to move the channels in any order afterwards? my 2c On 3/7/08, Klaus Schmidinger <Klaus.Schmidinger@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 03/07/08 16:31, VDR User wrote: > > On Thu, Mar 6, 2008 at 11:37 PM, Klaus Schmidinger > > <Klaus.Schmidinger@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > >> On 03/06/08 21:13, Timothy D.
