The way I currently implemented the video groups in ivtv_xine_tv is: "If a user changes channel (or at init), lookup the video group for the selected channel. If the video group is not the same as the current one, then re-init ivtv with the new video device and input. If the group type is 'tuner' then also tune to the channel (else it is s-video or composite). The audio device is always set when changing video groups."
Is this what you would have expected, Duncan?
