to prevent patching of vdr how about creating a kind of favorite channel plugin that has its own "namelist" which refers to the unique channel "markers" (like in timers.conf) maybe similar to that http://famillejacques.free.fr/vdr/prefermenu/ beside the fact that you have you chosen name for the channel it reduces the channel list to what you need _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
