Nope, not yet the code hasn't reached the required level of niceness
yet :) I've still got some classifying to do etc. Also some of the UI
needs fixing so it does something sensible if you select "Full Scan dvb-
s" etc. Probably, it'll just do the "Full scan (tuned)" instead.

It'll be post 0.18 but hopefully reasonably soon.

Nope, but then I wasn't really expecting it. I'll badger Taylor into
doing some testing at some point. It's probably hosed at the moment.

I'm thinking along those lines. I may have to do this for ATSC anyway
and I'm not sure what I need to do for dvb-s/c. So a solution which is
more generic would be better anyway.

I'll probably start work on this soon, when Taylor is happy with some
work I've been doing for him and work stops stressing me :P
