The channels are listed / edited in a grid.
<ul>
<li>To edit a cell, double-click on it. After a cell is changed it
will flags one of its corner to red to indicated that it has been
changed. To commit these changes back to Tvheadend press the
'Save changes' button. In order to change a Checkbox cell you only
have to click once in it.
<li>To delete one or more entries, select the lines (by clicking once on
them), and press the 'Delete selected' button. A popup
will ask you to confirm your request.
</ul>
<p>
The columns have the following functions:
<dl>
<dt>Name
<dd>Name of the channel as presented in EPG and external interfaces.
Changing name of a channel does not interfere with scheduled
recordings etc.
<dt>XML-TV Source
<dd>Name of the XML-TV channel. If you have XML-TV enabled you can
select which XML-TV channel to obtain data from. By default
Tvheadend tries to match the name itself, but sometimes it might
not match between the XML-TV source and the TV provider so in
such cases you can change it yourself.
<dt>Tags
<dd>Each channel can be bound to a zero, one or many tags.
The tags are used for multiple things and it's up to you how
you wish to use and name them. Tags can be used to aid searching
in the EPG if you have many channels. The tags are also presented
in a Media player.
<dt>DVR Pre-Start
<dd>Allows the user to specify an amout of extra time that should
be prepended to a recording scheduled on this channel.
In other words, if you type 5 here for a recording that is scheduled
for 20:00 will start to record at 19:55.
<dt>DVR Post-End
<dd>Similar to DVR Pre-Start this allows the user to add an extra
amount of time that should be appended to a recording.
In other words, if you type 5 here for a recording that is scheduled
to end 20:30 will stop to record at 20:35.
