[QUOTE="quiller, post: 105275, member: 27306"] In MyTV, there is an option on the main screen called "TV On" or "TV Off." This button toggles live/timeshifted television, which means that while watching anything else it is in the "off" position. For instance, if I load a recorded television show, it still says "TV Off." The confusion I'd like to see avoided is if somebody had a recorded event coming up, saw that television was off, and assumed the recording would be missed. Like many things within MediaPortal, the label makes perfect sense once (as a user) you come to understand the vernacular. However, for a new or casual user (i.e. my roommates, significant others, etc) it's not very intuitive. My solution is to rename this button to "TV Active" and "TV Inactive." I looked, but couldn't find anywhere to change this locally, so hopefully somebody agrees with me... [/QUOTE]
