Thank you for your input.
1. The field of the channel name is as long as it can be. You can rename your channels to have a shorter name, if it disturbs you that they are too long.
2. When you start to import your m3u file, all the groups are marked as "No EPG, delete from M3U".
That setting will be added to all channels in that group.
If you choose "Get EPG" for the group, all the channels will have that option.
It's always a personal choice. Do you want to keep or delete the majority of the channels in a group. We don't know.
So, if you set a group to get EPG, all the channels will be set to get EPG in that group.
You can then set it to something else during the editing process.
I am sorry, if in your case you wanted to delete more channels, than to keep, but somebody else may want it exactly the opposite way, then he would complain that he had to set all the channels to "get EPG".
Channels inheriting their group's option is the programatically logical way.
