Summary:
Would it be possible to manually "combine" SD and HD channels where channels are simulcast in HD and SD?
Area:
TV server
Description:
Currently, with ITV1, BBC One and soon Channel 4 (in the UK) these channels are broadcast in both HD and SD. This means that I have to have both listed in the EPG and I pick the one I want to watch (always HD as a preference). It would be great if there was an option to combine these channels so that only one of each channel showed in the EPG.
Clearly there are some complicatons to consider and so the following options might be useful:
- "Always prefer HD"
- "Always record in HD"
- "Stop HD timeshifting to allow HD recording" - with a sub option of "automatically start SD timeshifting when HD stopped for recording"
- "Prompt user to select HD or SD when channel selected for timeshifting"
- "Enable OSD menu to switch between HD and SD streams"
What do you think?
