FWIW, I browse by channel a lot. We recently switched from DirecTivo,
with so many season passes we never had time to browse for new programs,
to MythTV and Armed Forces Network with 6 whole channels of programming.
We often search by channel, especially the movie channel, just to learn
what programming is available. On MythWeb you can select a channel and
see an entire day of programming at a glance. I do miss it when I'm
browsing the EPG with the remote.

So, I guess basically I'm saying "me, too." I'm not a coder but will
gladly test new code once it's released.

Cheers

Ted
