I've been thinking. Among others about my confusion when I first
started with Myth. Input or source should definitely be part of the
naming, but there are two inputs: the AV feed or source and the EPG
data.
At present those two are when starting for the first time a bit
running through each other, which makes it a bit confusing.
This is understandable for they are linked in to each other, but
separate things.
So my suggestion would be something like AV-source and EPG-source or
AV-input and EPG-input. Hereby clearly linking the two, but also
keeping them clearly distinguished.
