Protect season recordings with a PIN

[AOSandman]

Anyone with kids might appreciate this one. A simple approach might be a single PIN code setup through config, and you can't modify or cancel any existing season recordings that are protected with the PIN (without entering the PIN). This should include blocking the canceling of pending recordings from the pending list, not just blocking modifications to the reoccurring list.

Another approach might be to allow any PIN when creating/updating a season recording, so everyone can use their own PIN. Then have a master PIN (setup through config) so that *I* can override any other PIN.

Anyone else like this idea? It drives me crazy when someone cancels one of my scheduled recordings on me.

Although I'm not using it myself, I believe XRecord has this feature?

xrecord has it for ready and pending and videos. I did not add it for season recordings. I will investigate.

Yeah, I started looking at xRecord last night & was excited to see that it already has PIN support, & nearly identical to what I was imagining. Makes me think that I probably read about xRecord some time ago, and my idea wasn't so original after all.

Jorm, if you could expand it to include season recordings, that would be sweet.

I will take a look at it early next week.
