[QUOTE="FlipGer, post: 10020, member: 10293"] Hi, nice discussion here! :) Ok, i tried to sort out my thoughts. ;) First of all, as Mario said, there will be now solution, that satisfies everyone. Because this mainly depends on the usage of the TV guide. I think there are two (three) groups: - people who use it to schedule records, they would like to have the recording menu - people who want to see whats going on at the moment on TV and change the channel - something in between, so those people want the context menu There maybee more groups. :) [b]More importand:[/b] Mario also said, that there should be a logical way for all modules. For example enter plays the a file (music/video) so in TV Guide this should change the channel. That's true, but is it logical? I looked at my remote and something different came up to my mind. Perhaps more logical? - PLAY should start movies / musik / TV etc - ENTER / OK should call the context menu [1] - RECORD should call the record menu [1] The context menu should show to the user what he can i do with this item / file. Play / record / delete / add to playlist / etc...The most common should be at the first place! E.g. PLAY for movies / music. RECORD for TV Guide, to browse fast with ENTER. So, these are my thoughts. Any comments? :) Flip. [/QUOTE]
