Wishlist: Manually toggled colored dots for TV Recordings entries

[BrettB]

Alibert,

Thank you so much for porting TV Listings and TV Recordings to npvr. I've really been missing them!

If you are working on TV Recordings, I'd like to suggest that you consider adding a little bit of new functionality:

When a specific recording is selected, have it so that pressing the green button on the remote would toggle a green dot on and off, pressing the yellow button on the remote would toggle a yellow dot on and off, and pressing the blue button on the remote would toggle a blue dot on and off. In our household, we have multiple people watching the recordings often at different times. We would love to have a way for "the system" to indicate when each of us have watched a recording so that it can be deleted. As has been discussed elsewhere, trying to have it automatically detect and record this information is quite prolematic. However, a simple system where we would just manually toggle our assigned colored dot on once we've watched a recording would work quite nicely, I believe.

Hi,

sorry, but I think I won't add something like this.

Oh crap, I was just about to add a +1 to BrettB's suggestion

I have been looking for some way to tell that recordings have been watched by others for ages so they can be safely deleted, in my opinion something like this & the total lack of recordings groups are the biggest failing of GB-PVR & now NextPVR.

To keep this in context with my other post today in case this does get implemented note that Ctrl-R for rewind is also the Red key.

Yep. That's why I didn't include red in the list.
