Looks fine; however, if a user buys a second TV card of the same type, he/she
might like a facility to say "tv1 can do the same as tv0". That could be a
simple python two-liner which adds all entries to the CHANNEL_LIST that are
then needed.
Ideally, something like
CHANNEL_LIST = [
('vox.de', 'VOX', '1234')
]
DEFAULT_CHANNEL_METHOD = ['tv0', 'tv1']
would suffice. At least something like
CHANNEL_LIST = [
('vox.de', 'VOX', 'tv0:1234')
]
CHANNEL_METHOD_ALTERNATIVES = {'tv0': 'tv1'}
should be possible to save the user from a *lot* of typing (or from knowing
his Emacs well ;-) ).

This question should actually be about "dvb:VOX" or "dvb:band" (sorry if I'm
using the wrong terminology, only analog equipment around..) so that a plugin
might say: OK, the device is busy, but can record a second channel from the
same source" (/foo/bar/whatever, being ignorant ;-) ).
The whole thing makes sense to me, although my impression is that a
Freevo-setup utility (a separate app) might to the trick as well, since this
is mostly about complex config file structures, not really about complex
program interna.
