Bugfix by Anders Holst: A bug was detected in the recent recordpath patch. It could cause a crash when using the green or yellow button to select a tag in the movielist.
By Anders Holst: At regular intervalls there are questions in the forum (in at least three or four different threads on only this subject) on how to configure the recording paths so you don't have to set them to the same thing over and over again in e.g EPG timers. People apparently forget to set it, and miss their recordings because the harddisk is full or not built in. They want an easy way to change the default from /hdd/movies/ to a NAS or a USB device. I have rebased the patch in this thread from March 23, added two minor bugfixes, and hopefully made it less controversial by making sure that it only affects the expert setup level. I don't think there should be anything controversial about this patch now, and no known bugs. It only provides functionality that several people are screaming to get. Synopsis: The patch changes the "Timeshift path..." setup dialogue into a "Recording paths..." dialogue where you can easily configure both the timeshift and the other recording paths.
small optimizations and cleanups by Moritz Venn
Patch by Moritz Venn/Anders Holst: the long awaited 'setting tags from timer menu'-patch
add possibility to choose record location on timer creation and choose record location in movieplayer (only in expert user level)
movieplayer_select.patch by Moritz Venn
add support for cyclic garbage collection to eTimer and eSocketNotifier class, add simpler method to set a timer callback.. or remove.. instead of timer.timeout.get().append(func).. or .remove(func)... now it is possible to do timer.callback.append(func)... timer.callback.remove(func) (the old method still works..but is now deprecated)
change movielist liststyle to our old default
add possibility to select between different list styles via context menu add possibility to sort the movielist by record time or alphanumeric add possibility to show detailed information about current selected movie thx to ralfk
cleanup some imports
just recalc length of visible entries in movie selection
allow filtering for more than two tags, finally fix green/yellow button in movielist. defining tags is still not possible.
fix off-by-one
add ability to filter by tag. they must be created by hand right now.
fill movielist only once
add possibility to view eventinfo in recorded movielist (move cursor to recorded movie and press info)
show name in delete dialog
stop update length timer when a movie was selected
speedup opening of long movielists
faster loading of movie list (done by initially not loading the file length and updating the file lengths after displaying the list in the background (timer driven))
