live preview in tv guide

[reven]

this is probably already on subs todo list but anyhow

it would be nice if a preview of the currently selected channel in the tv guide was shown in the video inset in the tv guide, using the live preview mode so it changes channel quickly. but only if no video is playing back to begin with.

of course there would have to be an seperate config option to enable this in the config than just the "use live preview" option, since i (and probably a lot of users) preview timeshift mode when viewing tv and dont actually have live preview turned on at all, but only way to do the channel preview.

i have a feeling that wold be soooo slowww...
i'd rather have instead, a preview button to play selection in little window,and hit home to make it fullscreen or just hit play to go full directly..
[imagine holding down the down key and wanting to scroll down real quick and having to wait forever to get there!]
that way you could browse the guide and preview the channels without leaving or suffering the performance loss of changing thru channels you just wanted to get past...
i'm just amazed at the readability of text in the little window..

live preview is pretty quick, just set it up similar to the task image fading in/out how it wont fade in/out every image if you push up a few times it will fade when you stop. ie change channel when you stop for a second, not when you going through 10 channels at once.
