That would have been me, but it isn't a patch, it's a hack. But if
there's interest I can post it.

All it does is to completely erradicate the description from the
recording screens. (Well apart from some artifact I get at the top of
the screen, but that's not intended).

OK, so here it is, but please don't commit this :-)

There won't be a description field in the recording screens at all. I
don't care, because I use mythweb as main epg. There still is some
description left, that's displayed at the top of the screen, as though
there was text to be displayed, that doesn't no were it belongs (because
I deleted it's field), but I didn't have the time to look into it. Maybe
someone that can code c++ can come up with something like in the OSD
were long decriptions are simply cut off, or with a fixed size for the
decription field.
