Channel groups in the EPG

Spooky · 2008-03-30, 16:05

Is it possible to switch between channel groups in the EPG...? Right now I have to go to "Channels", select a channel in the desired channel group there and then go to the EPG, in order to browse the program guide in that channel group.

Btw. I guess you are supposed to see the channel group's name on the top? In the screenshot it says "Deutschland" even though the programm guide views the channels of a group called "Sport".

So no solution for this? Right now the EPG is a bit tedious to use when using groups for the channels

You can open the context menu and switch the channel group there

Ah, thx

Though I feel the usability of the EPG isn't quite so good because of this.

Agreed. It would be nice to have a quicker, single button-type method for changing groups.

Just thought I would resurrect this thread as I agree also, a single button click to change groups would be nice when in full EPG view. The wife is moaning that she needs to press 3 buttons to get the group list up where as it's 1 on the Sky STB.
