If I understand that correctly, then many of my repeating recordings will soon be named "TITLE" or "EPISODE" only in the timer menu, because many of my timers use the scheme "ShowName~EPISODE". I prefer to add ~EPISODE or ~TITLE individually instead of of using the "Use episode name" option.
Would it be ok if I change it so that the full name is displayed (like before) if the string that would be displayed with the new mechanism is "TITLE" or "EPISODE"?
I thought of that too, but as Timothy wrote, search timers also tend to generate less useful names like "Thu_04.02.2010-20:00" or all the useless stuff that TV stations use as episode name.
Well, that's the problem of whoever generates the search timer ;-)
A better way would be to shorten the folder part and the name dynamically, so that at least a part of both is visible. Like shortening aaaaaaa~bbbbbbbb~cccccccc~dddddddd to aaaa...cccc~dddd...
I can give you a setup option that switches between the old and the new version - if it really turns out to be necessary. Anything else would probably quickly become "rocket science" ,-)
