I would like to add a channel editor too. Until then, you can always use wmc to rename the channel, serverwmc will use the new name

Damn, I thought about making the name of the default file be set-able in the config file, but then thought no one would use it. I doubt kodi can handle the other formats, except for png. Maybe it detects the file type, and ignores the extension, to find out, rename your png file as 'default.jpg' and see what happens. I will make the file set-able in the next rev.
I agree that renaming more than a couple of channels in wmc is a pain. Have you tried changing the setting in the 'channels' tab to 'full service name'? You might get more agreeable names that way, while you wait for a channel editor.

One of these days xbmc will have transcoding built in, although I don't know that its being worked on.
IMO the devs here working around everyone else to shoehorn in transcoding would be a waste of their time although I can't speak for them.
There are other excellent transcoding solutions, like mediabrowser3, plex, and others. For permanent transcoding (not live) there's at least mcebuddy.
You never know what this top notch dev team is going to pull out next though.

It would be great to have a Web UI for the epg and scheduling recordings. I use Remote Potato to do it now but would love to have the same functionality in your app so I don't need that one.
Btw, fantastic work. Serverwmc is awesome. Thank you!

Mb3 would be overkill for just a epg. And, yes trying to reduce apps and complexity. Maybe you can collaborate with the current Dev for remote potato and remote media center (remote potato front end)?
