Actually, that doesn't enable/disable "browse mode."  (I know, there are 
way too many settings to keep track of--at least until Justin works his 
magic. ;)  That would be used such that if a user types 20 (and doesn't 
have any channels in the 200-209 or 2000-2099 or ... ranges), Myth will 
automatically change channels without waiting for select.  From the 
settings:

Change channels immediately without select
When a complete channel number is entered MythTV will switch to that 
channel immediately without requiring you to hit the select button.

The setting for "browse mode" is:

Always use Browse mode when changing channels in LiveTV
If enabled, Browse mode will automatically be activated whenever you use 
Channel UP/DOWN while watching Live TV.

and can be found under Playback on the page, "On-screen display" (I 
think it's page 8).
