Hey,

a small issue which makes life so much easier: channel groups
(especially when there are over 500 sat-channels :-) )

From my log, I see following statements
------------

-----------------------------------------

So it seems the plugin expects the groups to exist in the channels.conf of VDR. I could try to create them manually once to check that out.
Anyway: I think the locally created groups (in xbmc) should override those in VDR. The plugin should not generate an error if the group doesn't exist in VDR.

Kind regards,

Jan
