Hitcher, very nice work. Personally stoked to see you embracing PVR support. Your skins are some of the best designed and best looking available.

I also cannot browse the directory by going to the "files" menu. Removing and reading the source doesn't fix the issue either.

Anyone else getting this?
Have latest version of skin (3.0.4 I think?) and Beta 3.

thanks for the PVR changes (adding timer and recording icons to the views and making the PVR menu a submenu of the main Live-TV menu).
Some more ideas:
- show a subtle and globally visible indication that a recording is going on (like now playing or something like that)
- add a options menu to the PVR section and move the following stuff there:
* switch EPG view/mode + current mode (or integrate it somehow else, where always visible)
* switch recordings view mode (+ adding other view modes ofc)
* switch channel group and/or list all groups (if more then one)
* EPG search
- maybe discrete alternating row colors in the EPG timeline view or highlight the current one
- show the number of recorded items on "folders" somewhere (so if more then one recording of the same show, like: "Bing Bang Theory (21)")
- maybe thumbnails of recorded shows?
- a "latest recordings" option for the home screen
- pressing the "e" key for the EPG view should hide the EPG again if already visible
Just some ideas I had - not sure if all make sense for everybody or really improve usability though. Pick what makes sense for you and fits your vision of Xeebo.

What do you think?Moved the channel and EPG toggle buttons back to the sub menu along with the Timer and Search functions.
