I am using MP 1.9.0 pre, aMPed 3.6.2, on 32-bit Vista.

If I go to the "Scheduled Recordings" panel, select "sort by date", and select the upwardly-pointing triangle (which I interpret to mean "sort increasing"), I get a list with the earliest date first and the latest date last.

If I go to the "Recorded TV" or "Recorded Radio" panel, select "sort by date", and select the upwardly-pointing triangle (which I interpret to mean "sort increasing"), I get a list with the earliest date last and the latest date first, i.e. the opposite way to the "Scheduled Recordings" panel. I don't think that this is right, because it is supposed to be "sort by date" and not "sort by age".

Although "sort by age" would be a valid choice to offer (upward triangle means "youngest first"), I think that for "sort by date" most people would expect the order to be the same as the order used in "Scheduled Recordings". I have not checked any other panels, but they may be inconsistent too.
