hell any screen involving recordings.
EPG1 - Hit the "show guide" button
I think the point that Jono is making is that for interface issues
like this you shouldn't have to RTFM. My girlfriend isn't going to
jump on Google and try to find the legend for key bindings. He makes
some valid points here and isn't looking for the solution himself - he
is looking for the solution for ALL users.
You can, to a degree get away with web-only documentation for software
packages that are going to be used exclusively by computer people
(i.e. someone with the knowledge to install the package in the first
place), but MythTV is now getting to the point where many non-computer
users are using it. Usability and/or thorough online help is extremely
important in this instance.
So then the "computer people/person" needs to do:
A: Print out the keybindings and make all who use the TV where they are
(hint: near the TV somewhere)
B: Create a bookmark on the PC each family member uses to the keybindings.
C: Give pop quizes to family members on keybindings until memorized.
Take yer pic.
