Default My TV Channel List

It would be nice to be able to see a channel list when in My TV, so that I can jump to a specific channel without having to move through all the other channels in between first (using the up / down).

You sort of can do this in the TV guide - all the channels are listed and click on them to view the channel, but its not a very concise list if you have a lot of channels.

I second this. Having to skiip through all the channels to find the one you want is not very nice. Then a shortcut to take you back to your last channel would be nice as well.

It would be good if you could click a "Select Channel" button, on the My TV page, and would get a (scrollable if required) pop up vertical menu of your TV channels.

I like this idea but I was perhaps thinking when in MyTv pressing the "DVD Menu" on the remote would bring up a 3x3 grid or similar with the channel icons in there that you just move to and press ok.

Another thing would be to get rid of the Card selector (ie card1,card2 etc) and just assign the channel to that specific card(s). So you would only select the channel and it would switch to the appropriate card automatically. Useful for people with 2 or more cards.

Maybe something like this? (could do more rows + columns if needed for people with lots of channels)
