    Movielist- Feature request

    Could you add an option that the cursor stay at position of the last watched movie when I return to the MovieList?
    I see that you have adopted from OpenPli red colour in channel list when recording is on in certain channel.
    This is another thing you should adopt from them.

    I can do that, as I was about to open a thread on the same issue.

    When you have finished watching a recording and press the Stop button you get taken back to the movie list (well, this is configurable - but that's the default setting). You will be taken back to the last folder you were in, which will be the one that this just-stopped recording is in. Your most-likely next action is to delete the now-viewed recording. However, the selection will not be on what you have just viewed, but rather it will be on the top entry in the list. So you are likely to accidentally delete this "wrong" entry (since it may have the same name in the list as that entry which you wish to delete).

    So the rewuest is to highlight the just-viewed entry when you go back to the movie list when stopping a viewing to make deleting it simpler.

    Hmm, than something is wrong. Default behaviour is that the last one viewed is highlighted. And on all my boxes that is and always has always been the case.
    And I'm 100% sure about that, as indeed I always delete that one immediately.

    Having said that: I have no idea why that doesn't happen in your case.

    So, when you open the movie list, where is the cursor placed? In the upper (last recorded) position or last watched movie?

    Opening the movie list from live-TV: cursor is at the top in the last watched folder.
    (Automated) opening of the list on stopping playback: the last played file is highlighted (so ready to be deleted).
    This behaviour is identical to PLi's.

    Unless you've been deleting the wrong files and not noticed....

    Having said that: I have no idea why that doesn't happen in your case.
    Not just my case. I didn't start this thread, so that means there are at least two of us, with different systems, that see this.

    With me I go back to the first file in the last folder used. I have my entries sorted alphabetically, directories first.
    It happens if I press Stop, or TV (which also stops the playback and drops you into the movie list).

    Nope, that's not the case; I always see that I'm on the correct, just watched file before deleting it.

    I use sorting alphabetical and chronological.

    Well, that's not wokring for everyone

    I use sorting alphabetical and chronological.
    Those are two separate options for me. I'd like to be abe to do both as at the moment an alphabetic sort (which I use) puts the most recent episode of a series at the top op the list, and I'd prefer that the earliest episode were first.

    Why should the image be changed for 2 people? I don't want the last viewed item to be selected.

    And, from your comment, it appears that you currently don't see it either, so we're up to at least 3.
