[mythtv-users] Manual Recording: feature suggestion

Due to tv_grab_uk_rt leaving almost all late-night programmes as "Unknown", I've had to manually program a few things recently. My source of information for this is the listings page on teletext, which shows the start time for each programme, but not the start time and duration.

When I go to manually program a recording, it requires a start time and duration, which requires me to do a little temporal maths - not my strong point. I'd prefer an option to use start time and end time instead. Unfortunately I wouldn't know where to start coding this myself, so I'm throwing it out there as a feature suggestion in the hope that someone will take up the challenge.

I presume that this feature isn't present, because I haven't found a configuration option for it. If it's already there and I've just missed it, could someone point me in the right direction.
