The kids are starting to complain about a few things in myth tv. This is good, 
it means they are starting to use it.
One complaint that I had last night, was about the recorded programs list. when 
you first view the recordings list, the focus is on the all recordings the 
groups pane, but the highlight is on the newest program in the episodes pane. 
At a glance (if you dont know better) you would think that pushing the down 
button on the remote would move you down through the episodes, but it doesn't, 
it moves you down through the groups. This is actually indicated by the fact 
that the text in the groups pane is white. To move throught the programs pane, 
you just need to press the right arrow button, and the focus shifts to the 
programs, the programs change to white and everthing is rosy, er white. The 
confusion comes from the highlight bar being on the programs pane, while the 
focus is actually on the groups initially. This is not intuitive, since you 
wouldn't expect a new user to instantly pick up that white text means the 
active pane.

Does anyone know if this behaviour can be changed, or if there is a reason for 
this behaviour? I would expect the highlight to be on the active pane by 
default.

This is a very small thing, but I often catch myself scrolling through the 
groups by mistake as well.

Cheers
David
