Ideally I'd like the option of either cancelling or watching, but I wasn't sure of the best way to present that to the user.

For me cancelling is the option I preferred because I have a low priority schedule to record the latest news every hour, so I've always got the latest news.

I'll see if I get a chance to implement both options this weekend & will submit.

Hi,

I wrote this patch because I found it annoying to have to go back to the
watch recordings menu, find the active recording, delete it and then go
back to the live tv menu, when I just want to watch a bit of live tv and
I know myth is recording some program I don't really care too much about.

If myth can't find a free recorder, it looks up the status of all
current recorders and adds a button for each of the titles currently
being recorded.  You can choose one to stop recording, and it will then
take you to live tv, or you can press the cancel button and go back to
the TV menu as before.

Note: I only have a single backend/frontend box with a single tuner
card, but I can't see any reason why this wouldn't work for those of you
with multiple recorders and backends, but if there's some problem,
please let me know.


I kinda think that this is a bit backwards.. I think that the default action be to watch one of the in-progress shows, instead of stopping the recording?
