This may depend on the total number of channels mythweb has to display. Once you
reach a threshold you'll have to tinker with the PHP default settings, and
possible the suhosin settings as well. Buffer size, # fields, etc. will all
result in an apache error message when your channel count breaks the limits.
Actually, I would prefer a different approach to editing this unwieldy table.
Instead of making every possible field an editable field, just make each line a
link which brings up an editable dialog. No need for thousands of fields that way.
