But 1 hour is not enough to watch a movie. So having options "3 hours" and "Never" would be convenient. Please consider adding these. As a side note, the first 4 options are essentially the same, so if the idea was to keep things simple, 2 or 3 of these should be dropped IMHO. Or if you really think that this degree of control is desirable, then it might be more convenient to just let the user type the amount freely and select the unit (minutes or hours), instead of offering a limited and arbitrary list of options. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
