There is an hardcoded limit in SpinControl to have max 100 items, so MiniEPG can show max 100 groups.
In file GuiSpinControl.cs, at line 85 :
protected int _endInt = 100;

Can be this limit changed to a bigger value (say 300) ?


Thanks

Chemelli,
I have DVB-S (Astra and Hotbird), DVB-T and Analog channels, so I have 2396 TV channels.
I selected to create a group for every provider when I done channel scan, so I have 220 TV groups.
Now I'm reorganizing channels and groups to reduce them, but I need to access them to choose the new mapping.
When I use miniEPG, I see only the first 100 groups. Also, when I am on the first group, if I press the left key, MP goes to the 100th group, but from this group, if I press the right key MP stays on the group, it doesn't go to the first group.
Now I have found a workaround : when I use "big" EPG and choose to change group, I can select any of 220 groups, but I think that this change request shouldn't have impact on performance or occupied resources also because MP internally allocates internal resources to manage all groups, it's only a gui limit.

Thanks again,
romadd
