Agreed, but until you add more than one, you aren't really using 
playgroups...

No, because it tells me something useful as I could be on 1 of 3 tuners 
here.  Seeing "Default Settings" everytime when there is no other 
possible choice is a little redundant.  I'd like it to show when it is 
useful, such as when the playgroups are utilized, just not when they are 
not.  Suppressing based on "Default" isn't really a good answer because 
if you are using playgroups, knowing what is Default and what is 
something else is important.  Is there an easy way in that routine to 
get a playgroup count?  I think that if the count is 1, then it can be 
assumed that it isn't necessary to display the information since it 
isn't ever going to be anything other than "Default"
