Can we get some way to organize the Recording Priority into Groups? I record a LOT of shows and it’s painful to drag things around to reduce the amount of conflicts.

Failing being able to create our own custom groups, I’d like to see the ability to break the recording priority down into three groups. Must Record, Should Record, Nice to Record. Or something like that.

Inside each group you would have to organize the priority but this way I could easily make sure the important shows get recorded. I know I can click Prefer This but that only shows up when there’s a conflict, and I don’t always want that particular show to record instead of other things.

Thanks.

Good idea! That would be a nice feature. A long list in a narrow column is very hard to manage.
