Comment (by Klaas de Waal):
No bisect needed, the API function GetChannelInfoList does indeed call the
modified function.
A question is whether this API function is intended to provide an
interface to the existing mythfrontend functionality which shows the
program guide, or if this API function is independent and only shares part
of the implementation.
This also depends on how applications use the API function; is it used to
provide a program guide, similar to mythfrontend, or is it used to provide
a channel editor, similar to mythtv-setup?
If it is used to provide a program guide then it should not show the
channels from an unconnected video source, as these channels cannot be
viewed or recorded.
Possibly two separate API functions, or an additional parameter to the
existing API function, may be needed.
