Definatly not a feature. Might be because the setup is slightly
off. One problem I can see is that the dvbchannel code does
not support multiple channels with equal channel number
(it will pick the first regardless, but I belive this is
intended in MythTV anyways?).

TVRec ignores the return value from the channelchange, which
should be fairly straight forward to fix.

Does this only happen when you 'dont touch' the parameter
in question (which i suspect is the case)?

What I wonder about is why this channel does not have a channel number?
