Jppoet. Isn't this in the code already ? I'm using the latest svn revision. It has the "List Newest Recording First" option along with the "Sort Episode" by record date option. This does the same thing your patch does in regards to the "All Program" section. Does this not work for you ? Works for me.

This patch allows the "All Programs" or "Default" section to be controlled *independant* of the individual "titles" section.
Personally, I like the "Titles" sections to be sorted in *ascending* order by "Original Air Date" so I can easily watch the programs in the correct order. However, I like the "All Programs" section to be sorted in *descending* order so I can see what has been recorded recently. Does that make sense?

John, I like this functionality, but I don't like the extra configuration box. Can you make the PlayBoxOrdering? a tri-state instead?
Make it a ComboBox? and use something like:
addSelection("Sort Descending", 0); addSelection("Sort Ascending", 1); addSelection("Sort Descending except in multiprogram views", 2);
That way no one's existing configuration is effected, and we don't add yet another configuration item...
I'm closing this for now, but please reopen it when you have an updated patch, or e-mail me with any questions or concerns.

Use single setting for both types of title sort modes.

This version gets rid of the seperate setting for the "All Program" section.
The setting for general PlayBoxOrdering? is now used to specify the different sort order possibilities for the individual title and multi-title sections.
Better, Daniel?

Removed some tabs and added a comment to the help explaining that sections in parentheses are not affected by this setting.

(In [11423]) Fixes #1771. This allows the "All Programs" list to have a different order from other program lists by applying patch from John P. Poet.
The main benefit of this is to allow you to see the latest recorded program in "All Programs" while still having series recordings ordered however you want.
The only non-formatting change from the patch is to use a little simple math to set listOrder & allOrder from DB field instead of a switch.
