Channel change/favourites in TV-window menu

The TV window is one of DVBdream's best functions, cos without it a DVB app takes up way too much screen estate to watch in the corner while you work/read/whatever - this is one of the main reasons I use DVBdream ahead of the 5 or 6 other DVB apps on my PC. However, a major hassle is the up/down is simply too slow - you end up switching out to the main window, going to your choice of sat, clicking favourites, clicking group, then clicking the channel.

How about a favourites sub-menu, split by satellite? Obviously a full channel list via a menu system isn't terribly practical, given how many thousands you can find out there (with a motor in the UK you can get 6500 TV channels, and maybe another 2000 radio).

Alternatively - a channel list window that only appears when you click in the TV window?

Thanks

Few hints:

- you can switch between main window and tv window by middle mouse button, very useful

- do you know about channel list options - try Ctrl+L

- X05 is working on new OSD with the channel list, more here:
