[mythtv-users] hours to edit channels?

[Charles Wright]

I would find the editable link to a dialog to be a negative, because
what I mainly do is mark things that I don't get on that lineup (or
just plain don't want) invisible.  I can do this with 1 click per
channel + the submission.  A click, a dialog, a click, and a submit
would be much more painful.

Filtering based on source would be very nice though.
