Fast channel switching

Vindral supports fast channel switching by the use of channel groups.

Vindral’s channel notion is similar to the concept of a (live) stream.

The relation between a channel and a stream may not be obvious, so let us use water as a reference for explaining:

A stream is any body of running water that occupies a channel.

Streams may be permanent or intermittent — occurring only part of the time.

The channel is always there even if no water runs in it.

A channel can be part of a Channel Group, a logical grouping of channels. Channel groups enable fast channel switching between them.
