I'm just trying to find a show to watch.  I turned off the live previews and
thumbnails to try to speed things up. It takes 5 seconds to move one show
title. This sucks when you have 300 shows recorded.....  The user can delete
recorded shows so it's not a permissions thing. I don't see how that woul
dbe possible anyways since it's a remote front end and none of the recording
are mounted locally. They are all on the backend.
I tried a few of the different themes and there was not much difference.
