(My) Radio interface is confusing

Gorecki83 · 2007-05-30, 00:54

Hi everyone,

I don't know if this is correct forum (if not, mods, please move this thread).
I find the (My) Radio interface of MediaPortal rather confusing. The main reason is that there seems no way to know which station is actually playing. Of course you have to select a station by clicking it. But what if you forgot which one you are listing to (unlikely to some maybe, but still)? The interface doesn't show it.
I propose to switch to another display once a station is selected, showing the station name, and maybe other information.

And another thing, is it possible to have time-shifting features for radio as well?
If it works for tv (and thus for audio), why not for radio?

That said, I like to conclude on a positive note, MediaPortal is simply the best htpc software out there! Keep up the good work :-)
