When scanning for analog channels, the TVE3 finds three channels which all carry the same info text ("SVERIGES TELEVISION") but are, infact, three different channels. But after such a scan, it only keeps one of the channels. I can see the usefulness of this functionallity, but an option or a question to avoid this behaviour would be desirable.

    Hi,
    Yup can confirm this, happens with lots of channels. Especially those that have almost same name like SVT1, SVT2, TV2, NRK1, NRK2 etc. Will add this as a quest in Mantis.

    Hi I have notised the same thing. I dont realy think that it only keep one of the chanels. If I look in the TV Server´s Chanel list there is mutiple "Details" column´s one for each chanel. However I cant find any way to automatic split them to separate chanels.

    Hi,
    The problem is that TVE3 thinks that the channels are the same from same "provider" & assign all values to one of them. Like i have for TV2 & TV2 Zebra, they're merged so i can only use TV2, same with NRK1 & NRK2, same with SVT1 & SVT2. This should be selectable for us up north ;)

    Added in rev 15611.
    I only added a checkbox to the Analog channel scan.
    Just let me know if this is needed for the other channel types too.
