Thanks for clearing that up - and thanks for the PAL support! It makes all
the difference for my use of the MVP.
I used it last night for a somewhat special scenario:
1) Record a show
2) Start watching it in mythfrontend before it's finished (still recording)
3) Exit (and bookmark)
4) Pick up from MVPMC - Myth still recording. Finding the bookmark worked
perfectly
5) Bookmark and exit (Myth probably still recording)
6) Start playback in MVPMC after a couple of hours (after the recording
finished)
7) Trying to find the bookmark resulted in an error "invalid bookmark"
I don't know if this behaviour is related to the fact that the bookmark was
created by mvpmc before the recording finished or if it's just a
coincidence? I will do some more testing with this scenario.
BTW: I don't know if it's related to the PAL support changes, but I noticed
that the OSD "elapsed/remaining" time and percentage looks correct now - it
used to be way off (I think I have had percentages both in the thousands and
negative) making it impossible to search through the file with the arrow
buttons.
