I disagree with the stated problem.... and the response. :)
1. the problem isn't with it showing the current channel (and I think
when you're clicking up and down that is a useful visual feedback).
The problem is the osd stuttering, and that can and should be adressed.
2. IMHO there's nothing wrong with channel surfing on a myth box.
