I'm running 1.2.13 (hope to try 1.3.7 soon).

After cleaning up the database a bit I've got about 450 channels, with about 250 of those having guide data. (Usability has improved substantially since the cleanup - gbpvr.db3 size is now down by 50% to about 50MB).

The other 200 are tunable channels for which I do not have guide data or have not yet figured out what data goes with them (most will eventually be deleted). To keep track of all these channels, I've assigned them channel numbers that match the PID from the DVB-S stream. A few of these channel numbers are 5 digits, as large as 19000, but most are 4 digits. I can't seem to direct jump in the Guide listing to any channel number having 4 or 5 digits. I'm not sure whether to call this a bug report, a new feature request, or just a question about how to do it. Any info or comments would be appreciated. If this is not possible in 1.2.13, is it available in 1.3.7?

Thanks!

Sorry, neither version will allow you directly enter channel numbers that big.

I'll see if I can support this in a future version.

Thanks for the reply. If it's easy to implement, it would help for this case (channel=PID) and when working with different groups of channels - by just adding a digit in front. Cable becomes 1000-1999. OTA 2000-2999, sats etc.

I'll suggest another feature you might want to add when working in this area of the code - When there's a request to jump direct to a nonexistent channel number, jump to the closest number that does exist or the next higher number. Currently it doesn't jump. I often want to jump to the 200 area or the 1000 area and have to remember some key channels that do exist (like 213 or 998) to get close to that area so that I can then scroll around. Some suppliers organize channels by subject (Sports, etc) and getting close would be helpful. Thanks for a great program!
