 One thing i don't think i have ever seen mentioned anywhere, in regard to
this topic and other similar topics. Is the idea of Myth "Users". Each user
has a different account with differing levels of control and access to
features and shows. Account for the kids maybe where you can't delete
anything or only delete there own shows that they have "subscribed"/Set to
Record. I think that if there was user accounts with the ability each user
to "subscribe" to the shows they want to watch. After they are done
watching they can delete it from there Watch Recordings but it will still be
available for those users who have "subscribed" and haven't watch the
program yet. I think this would resolve the problem of someone deleting a
recording before someone else got to watch it. I know others must run into
this problem in multi users situations roommates or kids. Maybe later i'll
write a long more detailed kind response of what i had in my head. But I
think this is a bit of the general idea and maybe will give others some
ideas. I'd poke around in the code but i have rather limited programming
skills very basic C/C++ and Motorola 68k assembly. Though maybe this isn't
possible without a major restructure of myth's basic code
.
Thank you to everyone in our wonderful Myth Community.
