[Feature request] Add ability to flip through the channels repeatedly

Right now to flip the channels you need to do the following

  1. Swipe down
  2. Swipe right
  3. Click

That will get you one “flip”. To go the next channel you must repeat all 3 steps and so forth.

What I suggest is using the FF/RWD ability of the remote to give a more seamless experience. All the above functionality would stay, but there would be the added ability to click on the edges of the remote to combine steps 2 & 3 while leaving the channel list up.

Giving us the following workflow:

  1. Swipe down (reveal channels)
  2. Click right (load and highlight channel to the right)
  3. Click right (load and highlight channel to the right)
  4. Click left (load and highlight channel to the left)

That way the user can easily flip through the channels over and over again previewing each program before landing on a selection.
