Here is a patch to move newly added channels to separate radio/TV groups for every satellite position. It is based on an old patch that adds new channels to different groups based on the source (satellite position). New in this patch is that two groups are used for every satellite position: a radio group and a TV group.

Because when a new channel is added, it's PIDs are still zero, you cannot differentiate between radio and TV channels at that time. So the channel is first added to the end of the channel list, and moved to the appropriate group when the PIDs are updated for the first time, which is usually a few seconds later.
