I've been using MP for some time, but only recentyl got a DVB card...

I've been trying around and got it working without much hassle but there's something I must be missing...

Is there no way to change channels like in a 'standard' TV pressing the channel digits in the keyboard or remote?

Right now I can only change via the channel up/down keys :-(

Just pressing the digits should work! But I think the miniguide is nicer to change channels :)

Weird... I have the digits mapped on my remote, and they work on other windows (for selecting menu items, for example), but they don't seem to work while watching TV fullscreen :-m

I'll plug in a keyboard and try again to check it's not some issue with the Harmony remote...

Thanks!

BTW, I'm runninc RC1...

Is there any option to disable using digits to change channel... maybe I disabled it without noticing... :-m

I checked that option. I have it selected, and it works, more or less...

I've got quite a strange behaviour... channels change ok for all numers except 1 and 3.
When I hit one of those, it stalls for a while and then brings up a list to choose amongs what seem like news items related to the title of the show being displayed... kind of what would happen if using a scraper to find movie info... :-m

Maybe it's a conflict with another plugin... :-m
Here's the list of the ones I have installed that I rememeber, I'll double-check it when I get back home...
