Any intention to make the value of "short" modifiable via the front-end?
Is it a "feature" that'd be considered if I supplied a patch?

The wife surfs live TV a fair bit and she has a longer attention
span (or lower bullshit threshold, I'm not sure which :-)
so given a choice I'd set short to about 90 minutes or so.
It'd also have the effect of not cluttering up my disk
and recording listing.

Cheers
