When I use GB-PVR via the ordinary TV interface, and I look up a show in the "Search guide", it will show a list of all the times the show is transmitted during the week. It would be great if I could see if any of these were already programmed to be recorded. If one of the shows was "pending" it could be marked with red, which would tell me that I don't need to select it to be recorded because somebody else already did that.
If I program GB-PVR to record a show, and my wife already programmed GB-PVR to record the same show, but maybe another day, I will only discover the mistake if I look in the Pending list and see the same show appear two times. I have two Tuner cards, so we could even program GB-PVR to record the same show twice at the same time without noticing the mistake.
If I look at my GB-PVR via the web interface, and do an "Episode search", I will see the same list showing all the times the show is transmitted during the week. But in addition I can also see if one of them is already programmed to be recorded. The pending show is marked with a red background. In that way it is easy to see that I don't need to program GB-PVR to be record the show, because I or somebody else already programmed it.
It would be a great help to have the same functionallity via the ordinary TV interface.
