The very fact that the OP has generated so much debate proves that the OP is right. I've said the same as him for the last 3 years and I've done a LOT of interface design. I personally put hundreds of hours into rewriting EVERY xml file in MythTV in order to create some semblance of order. Unfortunately much of the interface modifications I'd like to make are beyond my level of programming expertise.<br>
<br>Perhaps someone should start a project on sourceforge that is simply for redesigning the UI. It would contain no code, only a clear, easy to use, well designed set of screenshots that show a better UI for MythTV. 4-6 months of people sending in ideas and the project managers picking best of breed should do it. Heck, I'll volunteer to create the final mock ups in GIMP.<br>
