You're obviously right about this...

Well I generally edit channels.conf and sometimes also setup.conf manually.
For setup.conf, it's just much faster than navigating the OSD while testing
parameters of own developments, even since my streaming-server is in the
living room, and my work-machine and test-client are in another room... For
channels.conf, it's MUCH faster, since I get most channel entries pasted
from other ppl's channels.conf. Whenever there is a recording going on
(which is the case quite often), I can't restart VDR immediately. So at
least reloading those two (and signalling PlugIns that they should try to
reload their setupfiles) would be fine here..

Anyway... Good to have you back :-)
