[QUOTE="davlaw2000, post: 384398, member: 29751"] As a dumb user I have to say the task of scanning, sorting and mapping channels is complex, frustrating and illogical. I am sure it makes perfect sense to geeks and wireheads but it leaves me absolutely baffled. I have a card with twin tuners, so I do understand that I have to scan for channels on both. I appreciate that this then has to be stored, and that I might want to sort the results into my preferred order. But mapping? What is that? And why are there so many similar screens where I can play with channel order? Why can I spend ages on one of them, thinking I am changing the order of the channels, only to then go into MP itself and find the channels in a different order? Surely you can make this more friendly and yet still get the necessary result? I hope you understand what I am talking about - if not let me know and I will do some screen grabs to explain myself better..... Apart from this I have to say your software is fantastic and you deserve nothing but praise to tolerate loads of people like me moaning about something that is free. Thank you!! [/QUOTE]
