</div>*shrug* My first choice would be to just map it to some other key,<br>
but it's more because I think most users will be looking for "Switch<br>
Source" whether they know it or not and may find Switch Input instead.<br>
Then they will file bug reports demanding Switch Input be rewritten<br>
to function like Switch Source (why is my DVB card showing up eight<br>
times and crowding my other cards off the menu?!?!) But there are<br>
other solutions to the problem. We could for instance move things<br>
like Switch Input to a Developer sub-menu, or we could simply rename<br>
it to something more opaque. For this one feature I don't care. But<br>
since we have a goal of simplifying the UI, how we handle it<br>
should probably fit within some greater plan.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'm not sure what the negative is on Switch Input but since Inputs and Sources tie together, wouldn't a multi-level menu work?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Switch Source/Input -> Select Source from list -> Then the user can choose to switch to a different source on the current card (only shown if available) or a different source and then pick the input</div>
