Summary:
Add an userfriendly navigation when using small LCD screens.

Description:
I'm using MP mostly for listening to radio or cd's. Sometimes I use it for watching video's. My MP has a small LCD screen (iMon) and an external TV. I don't want to turn on the Television to listen to the music. Also the remote navigation is not user friendly when only using an small LCD-display.
eg. update rate large (1 second) and mainly displaying status information.

The navigation lacks responsiveness and uniformity and displays 'wrong type of information'. When pressing down when at the end of a music list the focus appears in the menu. pressing up will not go back to the music list.

Is it possible to make an altered navigation. Like being idiot proof navigation.

Greetings,
Jeroen Bakker

I agree with this request, it would be great, for example, to be able to schedule a recording using only the display without the TV. I have an iMON Ultrabay and if I try to follow it to schedule a new recording, I can go on until a certain point after which the TV is needed to know what the dialog is asking.
Thanks to all the developers.
