REQ: Upcoming recordings on main screen :)

[mkanet]

PLUCKYHD, If I was misaken, I'm sorry. Thanks for expressing your opinion. I think I would prefer to see what Bialo has to say unless you're somehow responsible for his plugin. If he prefers to leave MyTV as is, then yes.. I would consider doing it myself.

I don't usually post about things that I'm working on, but in this case I will because it's relavant to this discussion.

I'm currently working on a Plugin that will display various "useful things" on the main menu depending on what item is focused. So if "TV" is focused it will show recent and upcoming recordings, if "Video" is focused it will show info about videos, etc.

No ETA, but I wanted to mention it here for two reasons:

- There seems to be a demand for it.
- I don't want Bialo, jorton, mkanet to think I am stealing their ideas!

I don't think anyone would accuse you of such a thing and does it really matter when it is for free anyways

Thanks for the post. It's all good. We're all here to help each other out... If someone takes an idea and improves upon it, I think that's wonderful. Good luck with your work!

I just uploaded a Plugin to the repository that will display the upcoming recordings and other interesting things on the main menu. See here: http://forums.sagetv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53546
