[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1271009, member: 141969"] It seems helpful for end users if [i]all[/i] EPG-related settings are included in a single section called simply "Electronic Program Guide" (no "DVB" in the name). But that would require revising the existing panel hierarchy (more work), and it still would not include XmlTv (maybe others) because they are plugins. Also, the panels labelled "TV Epg grabber" and "Radio Epg grabber" are more like siblings of "DVB EPG", and not subsidiary to it. So this suggests that the following structure might be worth considering: (1) The section in the left side menu is renamed from "DVB EPG" to "Electronic Program Guide". It has no subsections listed. (2) The panel displayed when "Electronic Program Guide" is selected has the following tabs: [LIST] [*]"DVB EPG grabber" (this has the content from the old "DVB EPG" panel) [*]"DVB grabber for TV" [*]"DVB grabber for radio" [*]"EPG genre map" [/LIST] Just in case anyone thinks that "DVB grabber for radio" is a long name for a tab, I would point out that the "Recordings" section has a tab called "Custom paths and filenames". I don't know how much work would be involved to re-arrange the panel hierarchy in the way. The simpler choice is as suggested by [USER=19448]@framug[/USER] (move the "EPG Genre Map" to the left to become a separate section in the left side menu). Hmm, difficult choice. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
