Peter,

thx. 
indeed this helps!

btw: 
I see You are doing great work on usability of FE. 

Many of mm2 users including me (and all those I converted from kodi to mythtv) are missing following functionality:

kodi has nice feature for browsing list of recordings:  when user is on title with multiple episodes, right arrow on such title displays list of all episodes of this title.
This behavior is like virtually browsing directories tree where dir is title and within dir we have episodes. 
This is IMHO very nice feature.

myth has already option to show all episodes of given title so implementing such functionality is just discover in PBB that selection is on title and call „list recorded episodes” when right arrow is pressed. IMHO such way of browsing for given episode will be much more convenient than today’s way (pressing M and select „„list recorded episodes””). 

what you think?
