With the favorite channels lists I intend to implement, the user can select only those channels that s/he wants to see. The channels.conf file will still contain all channels ever detected.
A problem is, that the channels.conf keeps on growing as new channels are added but old are never removed.
I vote for a mechanism with a touch timestamp (which is set when the channels if announced). Channels which are not touched for a certain time and are not used otherwise e.g. by a pending timer could be removed.
