Dunno about the GUI. I like to do this directly.

This works well for my OTA channels.

     select channum,callsign,visible,recpriority 
       	    from channel where visible=1 and channum like '%-%';

This should be good in general (assuming names mean somthing).

     select channum,callsign,visible,recpriority 
     	    from channel where visible=1 and callsign like '%HD%';

You can also key in on chanid which will be prefixed with the input id.

+--------+---------+----------+---------+-------------+
| chanid | channum | callsign | visible | recpriority |
+--------+---------+----------+---------+-------------+
|   2121 | 12-1    | CBS12HD  |       1 |           2 | 
|   2123 | 12-3    | FOX12HD  |       1 |           2 | 
|   2131 | 13-1    | KERA-HD  |       1 |          10 | 
|   3271 | 698     | CSNETHD  |       1 |           0 | 
|   3282 | 672     | FSM3HD   |       1 |           0 | 
+--------+---------+----------+---------+-------------+

    Is there a flag as such for HD channels? That would be
a handy thing to have for mixed environments like DirectTV.
You can't always count on convenient naming...
