recGroup direct access for PBB

[jppoet@…]

The recGroup-cycle.patch adds the ability to cycle through the user defined recording groups directly using the PAGERIGHT and PAGELEFT keys while in the PBB. This is much faster than bringing up the menu, and selecting which recording group to view.

The recGroup-ui.patch lets the theme optionally display the list of recording groups, with the current group highlighted.

The recGroup-Terra.patch, recGroup-default-wide.patch and recGroup-metallurgy_svn_10_01_09.patch(es) are not really polished. I am including them to demonstrate what a theme needs to do, to take advantage of the recGroup-ui feature. I also figured it would make it easier to review these patches.

I have almost 1300 recordings. Using these patches makes it much quicker to find the show I want to watch, by significantly reducing the amount of data I have to page through.

I realize I'm just one user, but I wanted to throw my two cents behind this patch (recGroup-cycle-v1.1.patch). I have the same problem as jppoet (lots of recordings in different groups) and this patch makes my myth experience significantly better.

Thanks jppoet! -Doug

(In [21261]) Allow the PAGELEFT and PAGERIGHT keybindings to cycle through Recording Groups in the Watch Recordings screen.

References #6318. I'll let Stuart look the UI/theme patch attached to the ticket since he took this ticket a few months ago.

This patch is by John P Poet, but I added the locking around the Recording Group cache so that we don't try to access the cache while it is being rebuilt by PlaybackBox::FillList?().

Oops. recGroup-ui-v2.patch had one-line of residue from a different patch. Attaching recGroup-ui-v2a.patch, which has that residue removed.

Added:

recGroup-default-v1.patch
recGroup-default-wide-v3.patch
recGroup-Terra-v5.patch
recGroup-Graphite-v1.patch
recGroup-metallurgy-v2.patch

All of these now take advantage of #7461 & #7462 and look much better than the previous theme patches.
