Jason,
I have been playing with that in MythCenter-wide. If you value your 
sanity, remember to make a full copy of the original before playing!

Those fields are defined by 'baseverywideselector' (for the 'record 
once') and 'baseverywidebutton' in base.xml. You will have to change the 
of the 'area' details from <area>0,0,486,44</area> to something like 
<area>0,0,696,44</area> in the definition stanza. I have added a fixed 
amount to all of the 'w' figures (the def. is x,y,w,h).

That seems to work nicely, but the next level down in say 'Scheduling 
Options' the texts are not aligned...
Still searching and testing on that. Maybe tonight.

Good luck.

Geoff
