I'm not trying to marginalize your frustration, but I think you are<br>
way over complicating the matter. I can only speak towards the<br>
American English translation and my personal interpretative of it.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I didn't think so; my point here is that mythtv-setup is something you tend to do once and then forget for the next year (or so). It could benefit from better wording in some places - I see there is an effort in the roadmap to drop it completely and replace it with some web configuration. </div>

field is expecting. Positive and negative numbers are valid both by<br>
the wording and the underlying algorithm. And they behave as a<br>
"common" user would expect.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I would mildly disagree here - a common user finds the whole experience very confusing, compared to known "alternatives" - not naming names. But my aim here is not to start a flamewar. </div>
<div><br></div><div>What could be done - and I could possibly volunteer some time to that - is that someone goes through the exact set of screens for mythtv setup as a QA and rephrase some things left and right. With regards to the algorithm, I'm a programmer also and it figured out at the end. But I had to revisit the configuration twice; I did it initially and left it running for a couple of days, only to find out that some shows (not all) were being cropped at the beginning. </div>
