Read the first three posts, there are some excellent templates for manual config of settings2.xml. That will be especially helpful for your youtube channels. Also there is the built in tool under PTVL settings. Finally refer to Milkman's guide (linked on page 1). That should get you started.
As for rearranging, that's as simple as going into settings2.xml and channel the channel numbers for each config.
Milkman's offered tools do not work in Linux. Personally it feels somewhat stupid to have to go in and manually edit when the software is close to a decade old.
But anyway. Thanks I guess.
Additionally the bumpers in milkman's post all lead to... Sketchy... Sites and or flat out don't work. Are there links to sites that don't make me feel like i'm risking badness just by being there?
Not tools, Milkman's GUIDE. It will give you all kinds of tips on how to configure things. It was written for PTV but is still largely applicable to PTVL.
While PTV may be a decade old (which I'm not sure is even true), support for it by the developer ended quite some time ago. PTVL is a forked project that began only last year and it has not reached a full release yet. Luna's plan is eventually to completely phase out the need for manual editing. It is not at that stage yet, so your options are to a) wait, or b) appreciate everything that has been done so far and get your hands a little dirty and do some manual work on your own.
Look farther down Milkman's thread. I think his own links went down but there are safe working links lower in the thread where people re-uploaded his stuff (in whole or in part). I don't know of anyone who has had any trouble with any of the sites, myself included (none of the material is of the nature that would get you in trouble anyway).
Luna and peppy are working on a new config tool that will eventually be released on linux, but right now the best options are manual config (which is not very difficult if you read the first few posts, and the built in tool (which is the best way to set up local content channels). To use the built in tool go into PTVL's settings within XBMC and configure channels.
