#7406: MythCenter EPG - cannot change channel
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: kbass@… | Owner: ijr
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: unknown
Component: MythTV - General | Version: 0.22rc1
Severity: medium | Mlocked: 0
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Comment(by mdean):
(In [22674]) Refs #7406. Fix channel change in the EPG. After this
commit, SELECT changes the channel and dismisses the EPG when watching
LiveTV and the selected show's starttime is less than now +
SelChangeRecThreshold. Users who prefer to always edit a schedule should
use the EDIT keybinding or access "Edit Schedule" through the MENU.
In the mythui port of guidegrid, the MENU key was changed to show the menu
(as it should). Unfortunately since prior to this change MENU was used to
change the channel and dismiss the EPG, this meant that the only way to
change channel and dismiss the EPG when in LiveTV was to enable
SelectChangesChannel and use the SELECT key. Since the use of the MENU
key to change channels doesn't fit the UI consistency guidelines, it makes
sense to just remove the SelectChangesChannel setting and always use its
functionality.
This change also fixes SELECT so that it does not attempt to change the
channel if not watching LiveTV (when using the alternate EPG while playing
back a recording). Furthermore, to ensure all functionality is always
available in spite of SELECT's dual-usage, it adds "Change Channel" to the
menu when watching LiveTV and adds "Edit Recording Status" to the menu for
shows that match a recording rule (where "Edit Recording Status" is the
function SELECT gives for a show that matches a rule and starts after
SelChangeRecThreshold minutes--the "allow you to resolve conflicts or
change overrides" in keys.txt).
I will backport this change to 0.22-fixes after 0.22 is released. Until
then users should enable the setting, "Use select to change the channel in
the program guide" or use the CHANUPDATE keybinding (by default, 'X') to
change the channel and then dismiss the EPG with ESCAPE.
