    Description

      <p>In performing some tests for virtual folder deletion and scrolling in "Recorded Radio", I copied some radio recordings from "Videos" to the folder where recordings are stored.&nbsp; I then started "TV Server Config" to import those recordings into the database.&nbsp; Most imported OK, but some would not.&nbsp; "TV Server Config" claimed that the channel was unknown.&nbsp; How that happened is a puzzle, but that is not the subject of this problem report.</p>

      <p>&nbsp;</p>

      <p>I then selected a radio recording with an unknown channel, and clicked the "Change channel" button.&nbsp; "TV Server Config" displayed a list of known channels, but they were all <b>TV channels</b>.&nbsp; I could not select a radio channel.</p>

      <p>&nbsp;</p>

      <p>Out of curiosity, I selected a TV channel and the database import proceeded successfully.&nbsp; However, I was then surprised to find that the radio recording was displayed in MP's "Recorded TV" panel.&nbsp; I had expected MP to distinguish radio recordings from TV recordings by the presence or absence of a video stream, but I guess that instead it uses some sort of channel id stored in the TS file.</p>

      <p>&nbsp;</p>

      <p>I don't think that being unable to select a radio channel on database import is a common problem, so this is low priority.&nbsp; But I have opened this problem report firstly to log the problem, and secondly to acquaint the TVE 3.5 Development team with this problem, to avoid it being propagated into TVE 3.5.</p>
