Hi,
prepared some pix from myHTPC. Unfortunately I do not see a chance to upload them here. If nobody with webspace gives me an email adress where I can send the pix to I will not be able to provide.
Anyways... here are my ideas how to implement the channel list:
I would suggest to have a button called "Channels" in windowing mode (means live TV is a small window to the right) that opens a menu similar to channels.jpg
with maybe an arrow button on top and in the bottom of the list to scroll.
In fullscreen one left mouseclick could open a menu (similar to menu.jpg)with the same button "channels" and maybe buttons for Pause, record, Play, Stop,...
I will add another request for having the possibilty to use Videotext (don't know if this a international thing). Then we would need another button to switch to Videotext and back to TV.
Need more pix? Just tell me and I will be happy to provide
This is a first draw. I do not want it implemtented EXACTLY the same way myHTPC did it (b/c they had drawbacks too), but I guess the way I suggested (if possible) would be userfriendly.
Comments? Other ideas?
The Guys providing email and ftp space: THANX

I made some proposals for a better channel switching in this thread:
http://nolanparty.com/mediaportal.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=713
For example using a icon view like in my music or my movies for a quick change of channels. Also a grouping by genres, favourites, news, etc.
would be the mp look and feel, wouldn´t it?

Sorry, not wishing to be a trouble-maker or anything. The screen shots shown (although probably encapsulated in myHTPC) are of GotTV www.gottvpvr.com, now known as GAM.
Just wouldn't want Tony's work to go unrecognised. His TV app is the best at the mo.
Sorry, back to channel chat...

yepp forbes is right. sorry for that.

I think having categorized channels would be nice to have but OSD is a must.
Can't tell my girl to switch back to main menu and do 3 other clicks just to change a channel.
But u can divide this prob in 2 parts - 1 is while fullscreen tv is shown the other when u have the small preview window and the main menu to the left.
For fullscreen I would stay with an OSD similar to GotTV.
For previews tomtom21000s solution sounds nice.
Frodo .. ideas ... is it all possible?
