Description

When pressing right and left to jump between channel sections (the ones starting with a column in the channels.conf), imonlcd doesn't show the section selected so that one has to navigate blind.
It would be really nice to have imonlcd show such sections.

That's can't be implemented. The interface between VDR / PLUGINS don't tell any keypress.

The interface class cStatus has only

void cStatus::OsdChannel(const char *Text) => The OSD displays the single line Text with the current channel information.

which inform if channel changes.

Thanks for reacting so quickly. I don't know if you'd need to grab the keypress: the name of the section actually appears at the same place on OSD as the name of a normal channel, but without actual channel change; a case which seems to be covered/known by the function ChannelSwitch: "If ChannelNumber is 0, this is before the channel is being switched". This said, I have no clue if it's really what is meant and where you'd get the name of the section.
