Optimise TV overrides (Channel Sorting view)
Great plugin, thanks for your efforts! @Kevinjil
One issue I have observed is once channels are selected from "Live TV" tab, the list spans 10+ pages and has multiple number 1 channels from different categories at the top of list under "TV overrides" tab. This continues with number 2 channels and so on.......... in full list. So a sport channel numbered 1 could be next to an entertainment channel numbered 1, which is next to a music channel numbered 1.
So the need for manual channel sorting is required. It is a very manual process and as list could span 10+ pages, it would be good to optimise the experience through (all or some of the suggestions from below):
- Allow dynamic numbering, so that it re-sorts whole list as you enter a "number". (Currently it is hard to remember which number has been edited and which has not when scrolling through multiple pages)
- Manual sort by "Name" column or "Number" column (Makes similar named channels next to each other for easier manual numbering)
- Option to allow automatic Category sorting, so that all channels from same category are bunched together. e.g. channels 1-10 from entertainment, 1-10 from sports, 1-10 from music, etc.. (This would avoid them from mixing all into a random list, e.g. 1 sports, 1 entertainment, 1 music, all next to each other from different categories)
- Export list to be edited in a spreadsheet, and Import re-numbered list back into plugin. (It might me easier than using the Jellyfin plugin interface to make changes)
Thanks for you consideration.
Thanks for the suggestions! I'll put this on-hold for now, mainly due to personal time constraints. Some of these were planned for after the implementation of #89 (searching / filtering in the front-end using the indexed database in the back-end).
