I've got some code for strongest channel selection. It inserts here in the code-base.
I've also provided a default path for the pre-existing behaviour.

I enriched the channel object adding a quality field, set and used for comparison. I have ignored signal level.

I'll see how testing goes. If it goes well, then I have an integration job to complete with [USER=19448]@framug[/USER]'s pretty good UI stuff, if that is deemed ok.

[USER=19448]@framug[/USER], Your UI,

Only needs Retain Strongest Channel. Nothing else is required, for the strongest channel stuff to be enabled.

We could optionally filter weaker ones, below a certain threshold, but as [USER=68833]@ajs[/USER] and [USER=141969]@CyberSimian[/USER] have pointed out, this is very dependent on individual set-ups and would need to vary over the course of the day too. Best we drop this I think.

At present, all available channels will be brought in, regardless of quality, then each channel will compete to make it into the list presented for mapping and EPG grabbing.

I've completed as full a test as I could here and I am super-happy with the results !
