See which TV Source is being used?

I have loaded multiple IPTV provider's playlist into progdvb and am using them to record different things at different times. Each service can only be used one stream at a time.

I am looking for a way to identify which stream is playing when a program is live in the viewing window, or to see which service is being used for a background record job, or to see which playlist is being used for a scheduled recording job. Is any of this possible?

Thank you.

New question for me. I am not have good solution but if you have same channel name on more then one provider then can check Stream menu in Manu->Playback or Context menu of TV.

What best place for information about provider of current channel?

Thanks for replying! TiviMate has a nice way of dealing with this when the on screen menu is displayed. Something like this would be great.

For the view on background record, maybe something like this?

Imho, this information is not needed all the time. Perhaps you need to display additional information or channel properties by pressing the button. Need an idea better
About the scheduler - marked himself for future version.

Thanks for taking the suggestion about the scheduler. For the live view, a keyboard shortcut would work great. That would work very well for me if that is possible. Thank you.
