Prime Time Manager 0.9

Prime Time Manager 0.9 (Preview)

About the plugin:

The plugin is designed to simplify the selection of prime-time shows. The user can make a selection of interesting items for him and them with one click as Zap ("live view" program) - can be set or recording timer. If there are conflicts between programs on your selection (Favorites) come (if not enough spare tuner available) will attempt these conflicts by setting timers to solve for broadcast repeats. It can be "planned" for several days in advance. Existing timers are detected, displayed and taken into account.

Keys:
up / down: change between Prime time and favorites list
left / right: selection marker in prime-time favorites and move left / right. The list will be scrolled if necessary.
ok: broadcast from prime-time favorites list, or delete from favorites.
0: the "live view" Set mark
Bouquet + / -: Change the bouquets
Left / Right: Change of the day
Info: Show EPG Info

Possible settings:
Prime Time time (default: 20:15 clock)
Display of duration or end time of the broadcasts (default: time)
Show the number of conflicts on / off (default: on)

Extract from the TODO list:
resolve conflicts of favorites by setting timers for repeats of shows. Highest priority is given to "view live broadcasts (zap-timer), so be free in any case, a tuner should see this show live to. Under certain circumstances, transfer to auto timer plugin.
Support for XD and HD Skins (5 items side by side)
Save / Load selection of favorites
Second prime-time period (for Dr. Best)
Display which channels there are conflicts

Known issues:
So far, only Timer favorites are set if there are no conflicts.
Get back Dene timer can be cleared only on the first entry of the timer. Favorites entries are not deleted on the following days.

Please note that this is a preview version and not all planned features are present.

Many thanks to Dr. Best for his tireless and Applications Support to the testers and djangp Weazle!
