from initial bug report for reference:

- initiate a tv stream and try to press the cancel
button in the connection dialog box. cancel button
won't be 'pressable' .

- initiate a 'scan' of your music db. again the cancel
button won't work

create thumbs patch is in

has anyone else noticed canceling of progressdialogs (those that do work) works with the controller but not with the remote?

cancel do not work on imdb lookup either (dvd-remote), not sure if your patch fixes this already(?), if not hope you can sort this out too

this problem needs to be divided into two:
1. most operations which take a long time are running in the gui thread, which means that it does not scan for new events. this method of programming is bad and must be fixed in the future either by multi threading or using select() for network operations.

2. the remote control code was not written properly (at least to my opinion). i fixed it today and you can now cancel streams (because the streams are running in the mplayer thread and not in the gui thread).
