Thanks Chris for including my patch. I have two questions.
Are you planning on adding multiple groups per recording? The problem is 
this. Say my brother likes 3 shows, and I like 1 show of his, but have 4 
others that he doesn't like. We set up two groups, "his shows" and "my 
shows". How would I make this work? Or does it already, and I'm just 
missing something?
Second question. Is there any specific reason you didn't add the code 
that lets you access the "Advanced Recordings Screen" from the 
playbackbox? Just curious. Did I code something wrong? I wasn't quite 
sure how to do it. Most of that function was copied from another class 
(programrecpriorities? I think).
