Record Series Rule timer types shows up in EPG "Add Timer" #9

Closed djp952 closed 7 years ago

djp952 commented 7 years ago

When an EPG element is right-clicked and "Add Timer" is selected, the non-EPG "Record Series Rule" timer type is exposed -- it should not appear in this context.

I tracked this down to a change made in Kodi 17.1 that was applied to solve a problem with the mythtv addon #11775 (https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/11775). That change allows the first timer type detected by the dialog box to appear regardless of it being an EPG-based timer type.

I have submitted a pull request #12354 (https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/12354) to the Kodi team to resolve the concern.

Marking this as 'wontfix' since it can't be resolved in the PVR client itself, this issue is to keep track of the concern only.

I had a workaround I tried but it broke other things -- this has to be fixed in Kodi.

Kodi team has (greatly) enhanced and accepted the pull request, not sure if it will be back-ported to Krypton but it seems like a go for Kodi 18.
