Title:
  [FFe] Channel selection osd menu

Status in Tv Time:
  Unknown
Status in “tvtime” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “tvtime” package in Debian:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In tvtime, one can change the channel with up/down/scrollwheel, and by
  typing the number of the channel. However, scrolling involves flipping
  through a large number of channels you're probably not interested in at
  that time, and typing means remembering the number for each channel. It
  would be nice if there was some sort of 'channel list', displaying the
  channel names, from which the user could choose the desired channel.

  I think very usable feature is ability to choose channel from menu. It
  may be item in current transparent menu which will contain item list
  presenting channel names which are currently set up and allow to
  choose channel from a list.

  So this will allow very fast and useful channel switch behavior:

  1. Use key "u" to open osd menu with channel list.
  2. Switch to required channel in one click in a list.
