Summary:
Channels that are not visible in the guide (checkbox unchecked) should not have a channel automatically mapped.
Area:
XMLTV plugin configuration
Description:
I have satellite and DVB-T tuners and use XML TV for the DVB-T channels due to MediaPortal not supporting the MHEG-5 EPG.
In this area for many channels we have the same channel appear several times on different frequencies with only 1 of them chosen for the TV Guide. Every time I rescan for a new channel or popup channel and enter the XMLTV configuration, I have to manually blank out "Guide Channel" selections from the drop down box for the dozens of irrelevant channels. This is required as otherwise when using the Search system or select "Upcoming Episodes" in MP, it shows the same program dozens of times for the channels we don't want to see.
Perhaps MP shouldn't include channels that are not selected for the TV Guide, that's another discussion, but the simplist solution for me is if XMLTV plugin ignored the channels that are not in the TV Guide and leave the EPG channel selection blank.
