This 'editing mode' could have some (OSD visible) key mapping like red->toggle mark, green->jump to last mark, yellow->jump to next mark, blue->start editing. However, this would make jumping a lot more difficult.
The color keys are already in use during replay - and I really don't see how using the color keys would be any more intuitive than using the number keys.
Users don't expect number keys to do anything else than being numbers. The color keys are more 'general use', and there's already a common way to display their meaning onscreen.
Personally I don't find the key mapping that unintuitive. After all, the number keys are unused in replay mode, so why not use them for editing?
2=Cut 4=Move Back 6=Move Forward 7=Jump Back 8=Test 9=Jump Forward 0=Toggle
Yeah, but was it 7 or 1 for jumping? Does cutting start on 2 or 8?
Don't get me wrong, I can do this blindfolded in my dreams. Its just not as obvious and easy to discover for beginner/infrequent users as the rest of VDR is.
