Hi Chris,

Many thanks for replying. Your patch did fix the problem. I will open a 
bug later.

By the way, there is one other defect I've noticed recently in regards 
to "Always prompt for initial group filter". I'm not sure if this was 
new in 0.23 and might have been in 0.22 also, so strictly speaking it 
may be off-topic for this subject line, but I'll mention it anyway.

It used to be the case that if I entered Watch Recordings, then pressed 
Esc while viewing the initial group filter popup, that it went back to 
the menu. Now, even with your patch, pressing Esc on the initial group 
filter popup leaves me in the Watch Recordings screen, and I have to 
press Esc again to get back to the menu. See 
http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/13027 for a description of how it 
should work. If there isn't a bug about this already (I couldn't find 
one), I'll raise one.

Cheers,

John
