Unusual scrolling behaviour

I use ProgDVB 6.93 and I observe unusual/unWindowslike scrolling behaviour when I click in the scroll bar.
In Windows, when I click in the scroll bar under the cursor the list scrolls down one 'window' - the bottom item of the list becomes the new top item in the list.
In ProgDVB, when I click in the scroll bar under the cursor the list scroll is rather random, depending on where (how far up or down) I click under the cursor. This behaviour is rather surprising and not very user-friendly - if I wanted to go to particular position in the list I can and would rather move the cursor.
Is this scrolling behaviour normal in ProgDVB?

What scrollbar you mean? ProgDVB have many custom controls.

Heh

Is huge height of the scrollbar normal?
Is dependence of scrollbar height on program window height normal?
Is scrollbar jerking when clicking on it normal?
If something looks weird in other programs it might be considered as normal for Prog.
One more example is EPG scrolling.

I agree. The EPG window is somewhat warped (like zoomed larger) when the ProgDVB main window is windowed/not full screen.

Unfortunately I do not have the means to record movies of what I am doing on Windows.
Please let me know if you need further explanations of what we experience with ProgDVD vs. Windows..

You can record over HyperCam. But yes, you must click to list before use scroll buttons on mouse.

I never said that I used the scroll buttons of the mouse.
I said "I click in the scroll bar".
My description of what I do and of the results is pretty straightforward:
When I click in ProgDVB in the scroll bar under the cursor, the cursor moves to the position in the scroll bar where I clicked and the list scrolls accordingly.
If I do the same in any other Windows application the list scrolls one windows down (the last item in the list becomes the first item in the list).
