Well, not *quite* per-show, more like 'per-content'. He's got a single
channel (i.e., 'frequency') that broadcasts different 'channels' (i.e.,
content) at different times during the day. So, for most of the day
it's a cartoon channel, during which he wants the color/saturation to
be at one setting. Then he would like a different setting used during
the time of the day when it transmits the Playboy channel (uhh... the
same channel has cartoons AND Playboy??? I don't know whether to be
excited or disturbed.)
The current solution would be to create 3 different channels with the
same channum & freqid, but different descriptions and chanid. Or
something like that; I *think* it's doable. But, as to the problem of
them showing up as three distinct 24-hr-a-day channels in the EPG,
you're kind of SOL without writing a whole bunch of code. Be an
interesting feature, though...
