TV Infobar Topic is solved

[Ted377]

Not for 3.8 as we are trying to wrap it up for release, I have started on it and will continue after 3.8 is out

Sounds good. Then we can prepare ourselves for it

Here is a short explanation of the symbols and their meaning...



1.

5.

I'm not using the TV part of MrMC but usually when the remaining time is listed in a video/media player, it is shown with a minus instead of a plus. Maybe consider adhering to unwritten standards...

You are wrong. Have you ever used or seen Neutrino or Enigma? Here's an example ...



Take a look at Enigma Infobar !

Another example…

• 576 SD
• unencrypted channel

I can give several other examples that show otherwise, that does not make me wrong. I wrote 'usually', not 'every single media player'.
But I don't want to fight, I just pointed out something that might have been noteworthy.

First of all you should make yourself a little smarter before you post here and teach me.
In addition, you said yourself that you do not use TV. And I also told you to be smart about remaining time.
Why do you not write down the manufacturers such as VU+, Dream Multimedia, etc.? There you will find exactly what you are trying so hard to criticize here.
So may I ask you to give me no lectures here just because your media players show it with a minus.

[Ted377]

And a minus is generally wrong.
With a rocket you can specify the time to start with minus: T -X seconds ...
Look at it like a bank account. You still have +1000$ until the end is reached. As long as there is still credit, you also have a plus before.
It's the same with the time of a movie. Actually, the film is at a minus overdrawn.

I'd rather the minus, it makes way more sense and is the generally accepted method.

[Ted377]

I would say if, then we do it right...
