jlet,
I'm don't find an answer to my question in your reply. I wonder if I wasn't clear. I am using one satellit receiver in two activities.

"watch tv" is only the tv on and the sat receiver. (so the audio is via the tv)

"watch satellite" is the same satellite receiver, the same tv, but adding the audio through a surround receiver.

If it is possible, how can I use the same set of "satellite channel favorites" for both activites without reproducing the whole 4 pages of icons etc?

Thanks
