Now you mention it...  I have been trying to find a way of relocating 
popups in MythCenter-Wide - but when using the 'Search' (Ctrl/S) 
facility in screens like Previously Recorded.  The search works fine, 
but the box covers much of the info I hoped to find.

And I see Paul has committed a couple of MM tweaks recently.  I'll try 
to give them a whirl, but for much of the time I'm content to accept the 
results of the BBC's knowledgeable playlist compilers.  No MythTV 
involved then.  :-)
