Comment:

 I've re-opened this ticket after Janne's reply to my re-opening of the
 closely-related ticket #1964. I'm running 13242.

 The channel dropdown list on the channel listing page still contains all
 copies of channels carrying the same station (with identical channum,
 callsign and listings data). This behaviour has not changed after the
 recent channel grouping updates in MythWeb.

 I'm still certain that the current implementation for the channel droplist
 is not the intended behaviour for users with stations being carried across
 multiple videosources.

 Where channels are configured with the same channum, callsign and listings
 data the channels are considered the same for scheduling purposes, and
 there is no benefit for listing them more than once in the droplist.
