Question about "Groups" and other suggestions

[mwkurt]

Hello,

I have a question about the way "Groups" work under the Advanced Tools select button on the Channels page.

Is there a way, when clicking on and highlighting a group, that just that group of channels will be displayed on the page while the others are hidden until they are selected?

If not, is there a way to incorporate this behavior? As it is right now, it is kind of a PITA having to scroll down 1000's of channels to reach the group I want to work on.

When clicking on the wrench to edit a channel, is it possible to add a "Trashcan" on the "Edit Channel Details" page? Once again, scrolling down, selecting a channel to delete and then having to scroll all the way back up is time consuming.

Finally, for now, is there any way to make the "Name", "Details", "EPG Source" columns expandable? Mainly concerned with the "Name" column as it would be easier to see the end of a name while scrolling rather than having to actually click and select it.

Thank you,
Mark

The purpose of this 'channels groups' feature is to be able to add/remove channels from groups. To do that you really need to be able to see all the channels, including the unselected ones, so you can tick them to add to the selected group.

You're using IPTV, where you got the groups supplied to you, but that is not the case with all the other tuner types. ie, the typical use would be to go in, create a group called 'Favourites', and tick the couple of dozen channels you like to watch.

FYI, it might not be obvious, but you can hit the 'delete' key on the keyboard to deleted a selected channel. This is useful when you're dealing with a long list of channels.

I'll look into this in a future build.

Rather than dealing with 1000's of streams, consider using the group filter when you import your first list to only import relevant groups at the beginning.

Being new to this, I didn't know that was an option as it was not readily clear when I imported my m3u file. I look closer the next time.

Thanks!
