Is there any way to select the channel NUMBER rather than it's position in channels.conf?
For instance, I want to select channels 55 and 99, but not channels.conf descriptors 55 and 99.
While we're on the subject, can you also suppress the 'position' number in channels.conf? My OSD looks like this:
15 99 CBUT
I'd much rather just hit '99' and get CBUT. Not have to scroll between channel entries.
Any ideas?

See "man 5 vdr": you can put delimiter lines like
:@201
in the channels.conf - in this case, the next channel will have number 201, but only if the number of the previous channel is less than 201.

For now, the only way vdr knows a channel number is by its position in channels.conf. This file _defines_ the numbers. So you've got to adjust what you and vdr mean by "channel number" - either by patching vdr, by getting used to it, or by sorting the channels.conf entries according to your liking ;-)
