That would be great! One thing I don't like is that every time channels get re-numbered, CDVR doesn't just re-number for future programming, it also re-numbers everything you have previously recorded. That drives me nuts! Depending on how many changes one makes to their sources, what was originally recorded on a Classic TV series channel could end up looking like it was recorded from a PBS channel.
Example: I know for certain that this episode of All in the Family did not air on Pioneer PBS:
If the reassignment of numbers could be limited to everything from that point forward, and leave my old recording metadata alone, perhaps I could be happy.
Here's the way my brain looks at this numbering thing. Now that I have my Tubi sourced Cinevault channels locked in at 11020 to 11022, If I assign my LG Channels to the 21000 range, the Cinevault channels should be 21020 to 21022. Nice and "matchy".
I don't know if I'm rigid enough to run with this kind of numbering scheme. But, I present it as an example of how far one can go with channel organization. There are some folks out there who need everything to line up perfectly.
Having the ability to assign and lock in channel numbers is amazing, and very helpful for loved ones like @speedingcheetah 's Mom.
I don't record anything off any of the streaming channels so redundancy for us isn't necessary. We just watch it live. The stuff we do record is usually from off-air channels. Funny enough we do have redundancy there with the remote off-air channels (which I record at the remote location). With the streaming services though, if one of them does go down, we notice because one of the channels we usually watch live isn't available. At that point I then take a look to see why its down and fix it.
