[QUOTE="MrMario64, post: 9832, member: 10276"] there is more to it. In the past when enter opened the record menu we had people asking why it didn't tune to that channel then. I can imagine that this is an expected behaviour. But, pressing Enter on a station to set a recording can also be expected behaviour. So what to do? We can: 1. enter will put TV in full screen and tune to that channel, pressing F9 will bring up the context menu (as in the rest of MP) where one can choose to go to recording setup. 2. enter will bring up the context menu where one can choose what to do 3. enter will give the recordiing menu, f9 the context menu where the rest of the options can be chosen again I myself think that option 1 is the better one as the behaviour fits the rest of the application. why? well, pressing ok on a song will play it, so why not let TV "play" the channel when you press it. Pressing f9 on a picture shows me what I can do with it (contect menu) like rotating, deleting. Why not do this on a program so I can choose to record it, view it, search info on imdb (movie) etc.. And to anyone here, this discussion is a matter of opinion. Peoples opinions differ a lot. Come with good arguments and especially good alternatives to get anywhere and think not only on YOUR usage but also on others peoples usage. Simply saying "this suck, thats bad" etc etc will not work. Lemme hear your thoughts on the options I gave. [/QUOTE]
