Klaas,
Thanks for finding and fixing this issue. My mom uses live TV a lot
and this bug occasionally crops up. However, there is at least one
other, similar bug still there. I don't know if it's related to your
fix or is pre-existing.
If playback is at the end of an earlier program in the live TV chain,
skipping forward jumps to the same relative time in the next program
instead of to the beginning of the next program. For example, let's
say the user watches program A for 10 minutes and then switches to
program B and watches for 20 minutes. If the user then goes back to
near the end of program A and skips forward, playback of program B
picks up at the 10 minute mark instead of at the beginning. If
program B is shorter than program A, playback picks up at the end of
program B.
If you can't/won't look into this, that's fine. It's not necessarily
high on my TODO list either. If you do look into it, however, and
you're really, really motivated, there is another, long-standing
mis-feature that is probably also related to these. That is that
fast-forward/rewind stops when it hits a program boundary. It would
be nice if ff/rew continues across those boundaries.
