Just a very small bug (or feature) to mention. In TV server configuration you can unselect the channels you don't want to see in EPG. If this channel is let's say at position 3 in your channel list and you select "3" on your remote the channel is played, even if you cannot see it in the EPG. I find this confusing.

actually this is not a bug, its by (bad) design.

when you deselect the channel, it just means that it is not shown in the guide anymore, its not disabled.

this will not change for 1.0 release, but (hopefully) in a later release along with a lot of other weird and confusing things.
