Feature #3667
Please offer option to suppress sending data on disabled timers to frontend clients

Description
It appears that Kodi Jarvis has changed the way it displays PVR timers using the TVHeadEnd PVR addon, and now it includes a status column that shows whether timers are disabled or enabled, with no option to not show the disable timers or to sort them to the bottom of the list. Since I have a lot of disabled timers, it means that it has become very hard to see what is going to be recorded in the next day or two, where in previous versions it was very convenient. Since the Kodi developers apparently think this is perfectly acceptable behavior, I was wondering if perhaps TVHeadEnd could offer some kind of configuration option that would prevent any data on disabled timers from being sent to clients via whatever method Kodi is using to obtain this data (in other words, if it's an API call, offer the option to suppress sending data on disabled timers via that API). This could be a checkbox somewhere in the web interface or a line added to a configuration file, it doesn't matter, but basically I don't want Kodi to even know about my disabled timers.

Kodi Krypton will come with an option to hide disabled timers. This is already implemented and can be tried with current Kodi nightly builds.
