Problem with preview mode in channel listing.

[GiP]

Hi,

The new preview mode in channel listing works as expected and very well (thanks, it was on my wish list), but it causes problems for the next and previous channel ( < and > ) and 0 (in NO panic mode) as it seems that the only channel memorized are the one used in the preview and normal zapping is discarded.

As I use that often I had to disable preview which is a pity....

Thanks,
G

ok i'll see if i can remove history for next update (but not the one i that i hope to release today, as i don't want to delay it further)

EDIT:

i have just checked code, and it should add the channel to history as you leave on the current preview channel (i.e. the 2nd ok press)


can you explain how what you are doing exactly please mate,

Yes it adds that channel, the problem is that it no longer adds the "normal" channels, the ones that you change to with "left" and "right" (or "+" "-") or by giving the number, as a step by step:
1)tune to Ch 10
2)open listing and zap to ch 1
3)"Ok" and you are on ch 1 (normal view)
4) press "next ch" (you see ch 2)
5) again "nextch" ( you see ch 3)
6) press "<", instead of ch 2 you see ch 1

and when you enter epg and then leave the last channel to preview and decide to keep it (by pressing the 2nd OK) does it not append the end of the history ?

or are you want ALL the previews in the history list ?

No, I think I wasn' t clear. the preview chosen (2nd OK) IS in the history, it's the normal zapping which isn't. When "Preview in listing" is "yes" the "normal" history doesn't work anymore. Or, at least is what happens here...

hmmm ok,i'll take a look, but the downside is that the preview might be added to the history as well, would that be a problem ?
