           Summary: loading a video and choosing a tv channel are not
                    intuitive
           Product: kmplayer
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: koos.vriezen@xs4all.nl
        ReportedBy: tnagy@eleve.emn.fr


Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:          Linux

For choosing a video, kmplayer brings the preferences window in which a source has to \
be chosen. This is really counter-intuitive, and the video choice should be removed \
from the preferences window. Instead, it would be clearer if there was only 4 menus : \
load video from file, watch tv, watch a dvd or load a video from a url.

There are lots of features but in my opinion it is a pity that the most important one \
(loading a video) got lost in the preference dialog.

Concerning the tv channels .. choosing the tv should bring a non-modal dialog for \
selecting a channel straight from the first menu entry. I currently have to do \
source->tv->bt878_long_name_of_the_tv_card->television->channel". This is not very \
convenient, even if the tv submenu can be put in a window (this last thing is also a \
bit counter-intuitive).
