Theme/custom channel feature?
I'm currently a ReplayTV user and I'm looking into switching to a PVR app. Beyond TV looks pretty good, but there's one crucial feature that I'm looking for. I'd like to create my own custom channels.
ReplayTV has a great feature that lets you create a channel based on a search. So I can tell it to automatically record every program that has the word "jazz" in the title or description. I see that I can do a search like this on snapstream.net, but there are a bunch of annoyances: 1) Having to leave the full-screen UI to do a description search 2) Searches don't take into account hidden channels. Why would I want to search on channels that I don't subscribe to or don't watch? 3) I have to remember to manually perform the search every week or two. I love how on my Replay programs that match my search criteria pop up in the list of recorded programs. Is there a way to do what I want in Beyond TV? If not, is there any hope that such a feature will be implemented soon? Thanks in advance, Boris |

I guess, based on the fact that there were no responses, that there's no way to create custom channels with Beyond TV. Bummer. It's a slick-looking product and it does 90% of what I want in a PVR app. But if the searching is so rudimentary, I'm going to have to grudgingly stick with my Replay for now.
