[QUOTE="Iwen, post: 1109377, member: 54972"] [B]Started on: 2014-11-10 last update: 2014-11-10[/B] [B]Summary[/B] It would be nice if the server could continue the playback of the timeshift buffer when it reaches its maximum size, instead of stopping the stream and deleting the whole buffer. [B]Area:[/B] TV [B]Description:[/B] Hey there, I noticed this behavior several times and it keeps bugging me. Here is the scenario: Sometimes I hit the pause button a few minutes before a movie starts, because I have something else to do at the moment (cooking, ...). The timeshift buffer gets filled (or the actual point in time shifts more and more to the end of the buffer) as expected. But sometimes I need more time as I initially thought and the buffer reaches its maximum size -> the server stops the whole stream, playbacks stops also. So here I loose everything, e.g. the 5minutes of news/commercials right before the movie (unimportant) and the first 10minutes of the movie itself (very important). My Samsung TV which can timeshift on a simple USB-Device is a little bit smarter here. When the buffer is filled it just continues to playback TV. In that case I don't loose the whole buffer but only some part of it (e.g. the mentioned 5min unimportant news/commercials). I know the TVE part is in code freeze. Just wanted to share the idea. Maybe some other users would like that feature/improvement as well and we have some chance to see this in TVE3.5. What do you think? :) . [/QUOTE]
