[QUOTE="ender, post: 138384, member: 18595"] Ah.. well... it detects a lot of channels that are duplicates or something else but not channels you would actually use (too weak frequency or whatever). Anyway.. the channel names are also weird at points when it shows the name of the current program for the channel name. My point is that it takes you a conciderate amount of time to configure the channels Well, in the old version I could say that I live in the neth, and that my cable provider is UPC and I have the channel config for Ermelo and ... voila.. all the channels are set correctly. Just a few mouse clicks and you're done. I understand that these updates are required. Point is that you only know this after you reinstalled the engine after which you don't have the option anymore to export. So, if you forgot to do it.... On the other hand, it is fairly simple for the program to do all this in the background (imho). Export the channels > update the database > reimport the channels. In other words: don't let the user deal with this. Even better, but I understand this is a lot more work, is to make the entire update process a better experience by not having to remove the previous version first and keep all the settings etc. But that's for the future ;-).
