#2282 closed patch (fixed)

Each reschedule freezes portions of UI for about 8 seconds

Description

This is primarily a problem when you delete recordings or when you use EIT.

The delete and EIT data triggers reschedules, when this happens the UI freezes up because Scheduler::FillRecordList?() grabs a lock which blocks Scheduler::getAllPending() which is used to fill the "Watch Recordings" UI.

This fixes the problem by filling a temporary list in FillRecordList?(), and then simply copying the list to reclist once it is in the proper form.

There are other problems that block the UI after a deletion, and there may be bugs in this code which I won't be able to fix any time soon, so this should not be applied before 0.20.

(In [11503]) Changed the scheduler to use a separate list without holding a lock when recalculating the schedule. This keeps getAllPending and getConflicting from blocking while a recalculation is being done. As a result, the PlayBackBox? should be much more responsive when recordings are deleted, stopped or started.
