I already sent a patch for Isaac to take a look earlier today, didn't want
to commit it this close to release. The patch prepends "**" to the title of
deleted recordings, should provide at least enough feedback for the .17
release. It lets the backend's delete thread update the title in the db,
before it starts deleting the file, that way playbackbox updates and shows
the "**title", untill the backend is finished deleting it. It's fairly



Talked this over with Isaac on IRC a little to confirm my thoughts.
I think the 'inactive' font route mentioned on the -dev list earlier is
probably a better way to go. It's an easy change to make the font change
color when an item is pending deletion. I added a 'pendingDelete' bool
flag to ProgramInfo. PlaybackBox::doRemove() sets this flag and calls
update(fullRect). PlaybackBox::updateShowTitles then sets the font to
"inactive" for any items with pendingDelete set to true. This also has
the benefit of highlighting the shows pending deletion if you use the
new taglist feature to tag a bunch of shows and delete them. They will
all immediately go to "inactive"


Just to be sure: will making the item _appear_ inactive also prevent users from performing any action on it? (Like popping op its meny and selecting play or whatever) Strange things might happen otherwise I imagine :-)
