Search by channel?

Can Channel Name be added to the search criteria in V5? This was by far the most useful item in V4 NEWA, generating a list of everything showing on a particular channel for the next 2 weeks. Thanks.

Could you not partially achieve this with channel groups for your truly favourite channels. It would avoid typing in the name.

That certainly would work for the Guide, but I can only see one day at a time there. My process in the past has been to browse a list of all programs on a selected channel for the upcoming week (or 2) and pick off the ones I want. Some of these are shows I didn't know about ahead of time, so I couldn't have entered a search keyword for them.

Yes it is too bad the NextPVR guide does not auto scroll. Emby PVR gives a nice vertical list when you click a channel in their channel list which Is how I'd like to see this rather than a search.

+1 for this. A blocker for moving from VDR to NextPVR is the lack of this feature. We tend to select a favourite channel and look for programmes to record in the next week. This is possible with web interface to jellyfin with nextpvr plugin so maybe we will just use that (slightly convoluted) method to access the guide for setting recordings.

I would see this working by clicking on the channel in the PVR to filter by that channel, ideally showing a scrolling list of all programmes in the guide over the next few days. I did see a channel.html file in the www folder so wondered if this was already considered, but I couldn't figure out how to access that page from the web client.

FYI for others: the web browser TV Guide interface only let's you scroll for a single day at a time. But, the UI interface allows you to pick a channel and keep scrolling to the right to end of your guide data. I semi-regularly do what the OP was describing by going to a channel and scrolling to the right to pick movies/shows to record.
