| [21:53:12] | justinh: | hmm. just wondering.. anybody ever played with havign interchangeable group/show lists in recordings-ui.xml ? |
| [21:55:17] | justinh: | I think it might be possible but I'm not sure it's worth spending the time finding it out ;) |
| [21:58:10] | justinh: | hmm this might just work |
| [22:06:17] | justinh: | it does actually. kind of |
| [22:06:50] | justinh: | interesting. velly interlesting |
| [22:17:14] | justinh: | all it really needs is something to indicate the number of items in a group |
| [22:24:03] | gbee: | justinh: where do you want the number of items to appear, pretty sure that's available but I'd have to lookup the name of the textarea |
| [22:24:48] | justinh: | I found rec_count but don't think it's a textarea |
| [22:32:08] | gbee: | reccount within the group list |
| [22:32:32] | justinh: | ahh thanks |
| [22:32:34] | gbee: | but that's the old group list, not the recording group list, would be easy to add it to the recgroup list |
| [22:33:11] | gbee: | someone should swap rec_count for reccount (or vice versa) so it's consistent |
| [22:33:45] | justinh: | old group list? seems to be doing what I'd expect here |
| [22:35:00] | gbee: | then I'd not worry about it :) |
| [22:35:05] | justinh: | not sure I want to go with this idea.. but it seems to be more intuitive keypress-wise than a horizontal grouplist & recordings below that |
| [22:35:16] | gbee: | v. briefly, someone added a third, optional list to that screen |
| [22:35:38] | justinh: | and – as I realised a couple of minutes ago.. this is a new idea I've had – unseen as yet.. I'm astonished |
| [22:37:13] | justinh: | nothing revolutionary mind, but I'm surprised it even came to me at all |
| [22:37:18] | gbee: | reccount in action – http://miffteevee.co.uk/imagebin/bellatrix_actual.png |
| [22:38:15] | justinh: | I mean having both lists occupy the same space onscreen ;) |
| [22:38:31] | justinh: | sure there's gonna be a down side to it or somebody else woulda |
| [22:41:24] | justinh: | nice use of templates.. infact nice use of everything there |
| [22:43:05] | justinh: | heh all programmes group count is 0 |
| [22:43:49] | justinh: | is that a bug? or because I've enabled showing all |
| [22:44:13] | gbee: | justinh: and I meant "reccount in action", nothing more |
| [22:44:39] | gbee: | justinh: could be a bug |
| [22:44:58] | gbee: | yeah, it is, it's present in my screenshot too |
| [22:45:40] | justinh: | all progs shows 0 but 'default' is 457 |
| [22:46:50] | gbee: | open a ticket, we'll eventually get it fixed |
| [22:46:59] | justinh: | only downside I can see to this is that showing a group with only one item in it is kinda lame |
| [22:47:35] | justinh: | like you select a group with only one item inside it'd be less fussy to just get on & play it |
| [22:47:46] | justinh: | but apart from that it's tempting |
| [22:48:56] | justinh: | might not be too hard to code though.. if number of recs in group =1 just play it already |
| [22:49:10] | gbee: | justinh: you're assuming that everyone uses the same grouping, e.g. title? |
| [22:49:24] | justinh: | well any group with only one item inside |
| [22:49:36] | justinh: | you wouldn't really want to have to drill into it |
| [22:49:58] | justinh: | hmmm but then I spose that could be confusing sometimes |
| [22:50:21] | justinh: | and no, no temptation to make another setting for it |
| [22:50:24] | justinh: | ;) |
| [22:50:53] | justinh: | a lot of my non-title groups have only one show inside. pretty annoying |
| [22:51:17] | gbee: | well it would be difficult if using a theme/setting which displays the group stats when the group is selected and not the details of the first programme in that group |
| [22:51:37] | gbee: | you'd have no way of selecting the recording to see it's description etc |
| [22:51:49] | justinh: | true |
| [22:54:15] | justinh: | certainly food for future thought I think |
| [22:55:05] | justinh: | I like the horizontal group list I had originally, and my wife didn't have any issues getting to grips with it |
| [22:55:31] | justinh: | so I'll stick with that |
| [23:01:13] | justinh: | anyway, there's a ticket for the group count bug now.. best I did it before I forgot |
| [23:02:34] | justinh: | hmmm. could groups have their own banners perhaps? |
| [23:02:58] | justinh: | just shooting from the hip here, don't mind it... been drinking tonight :) |
| [23:04:16] | gbee: | conceivably, assuming you the group type is 'title', don't think any of the code is already there |
| [23:04:23] | gbee: | not difficult |
| [23:04:37] | justinh: | I mean for categories & stuff |
| [23:05:11] | justinh: | like when I'm on the group buttonlist fanart springs forth as I go between items |
| [23:06:16] | justinh: | or is that all just based on the first programme within each group? |
| [23:06:37] | gbee: | first programme AFAIK |
| [23:06:51] | justinh: | duh ignore me – think it was just the title groups I was seeing |
| [23:07:58] | justinh: | nah it doesn't seem to be the 1st programme – at least not when titles aren't shown as groups |
| [23:09:08] | justinh: | nor is it when titles are shown as groups. I'm ashamed not to have played more by now |
| [23:16:53] | justinh: | this is all a very big world away from running into so many brick walls in the old ui code :) |
| [23:17:30] | justinh: | just tweak the arrow.. just tweak the font.. doh.. look in the code.. wha? how much is hard coded? heh |
| [23:27:17] | justinh: | can't make my mind up whether to show the program list inactive or not. I'll sleep on it |
