SVN : Recorded TV missing program discription with list view

bigj · 2008-06-26, 14:14

First, let me say thankyou for great skin.

I've installed the latest SVN version (2 days back) on MP RC1.
All looks good so far.

I found one issue:

In recorded TV, when viewing programs in list view - the program description is missing.
It is present in icon view - but for me the icon view only shows about 3 programs so isn't very usable.

I found a another issue - but this is present in bluetwo RC1 too, so I'm not sure if it's a skin or MP logic problem.
I'll describe it here while in case any reader has a thought about it:
In the TV Search screen:
Sort by name. It only shows programs starting with the current letter. e.g. Starts with programs starting with 'A'.
It used to be possible to press the number keys on the remote for abc, def etc - but now the programs don't change - it stays on 'A's. Using the submenu 'Search' and changing to 'A' using the MP keyboard works - but that's really painful and clunky. In preRC1 the TV search was really easy - could just scroll through all items and see what was coming up; now it is not really usable.

Yes I can confirm your issue no.1 too - same problem here, not very usuable.
