but they all have one thing in common, they are all timed functions.
What are we talking about Power searches for? Surely a search function should also be separate from a timer function? I think yellow is for searches right?
Also set a Power Timer on your box to automatically turn put your box into standby mode after 1 hour then open the EPG and leave your box for 1 hour. It will not turn off even if there is no activity in the EPG. It will even detect that you have been inactive and still function as normal but it will not turn your box off if you have the EPG open. When you close the EPG it will show a notification telling you that you have been inactive for 1 hour and the box is automatically going to turn off. But closing the EPG is a form of activity and the box is supposed to stay switched on when your are active with this particular type of timer.

There is no native functionality to check episode or series numbers in Enigma2
The use of PowerSearch related to a Topfield box and was used as an example to demonstate that not all boxes use the word "record" to set criteria for setting timers.
On an Enigma2/OpenVix box a power timers can be used, for example, to
Put your box into standby/deep_standby at a certain time of day, say, when you usually retire to bed.
Put your box into standby/deep_stabdby if you don't touch a button on the remote for a given period of time.
etc.

Hi,
I would like to add my request to the long list of requests.
I currently use KiddaC mod on one of his skins and it has a great layout for the buttons:
The Red button is called "Options" and combines "Record" , "Record Series" , "search EPG" and "Search ImDB"
The Green Button takes to to "Recordings" aka File List
The blue and yellow buttons are +24 hours and -24 hours in the EPG
This seems to be a really good setup. However..... KiddaC's modification is a bit broken as its based on an old epgselection.py file so is not working quite right.
I guess what I'm really asking - is it possible to have the above or
a) Be able to customize the buttons both at the top level and then a sub level. That way each person can pick and choose what functions they would like on the buttons to match their usage
b) Have a selection screen where you can choose this setup and perhaps 2 or threee other "popular" setups.
That would give something well above other builds and make make VIX even more popular (in my humble opeinion).
Cheers
Paul
Just to update this thread, most of the changes in this thread have been added to ViX. Press Menu while in an EPG screen, there will be options for you to define what the buttons do.
