[QUOTE="Marcusb, post: 67783, member: 11550"] yep, I'm pretty sure that the timeshift content has to go to the same place as the recording content, as per MS. Also, I can't really see much use for this. Unless your HTPC has at least 2Gb of RAM it wouldn't be much use for anything more than about 30minutes at the very most. As for using CF cards or any other type of flash memory, these have a very limited number of write cycles. If you are worried about your hard disks wearing out, just wait until you see the life of a flash memory module that is being constantly written to. No matter how cheap they are, they would still be a very expensive option. Besides, Hard disks are much better on a dollar per MB basis. I guess like you say, if it was a hidden or advanced feature and it wasn't too difficult to implement, then why not but who knows, this may be possible with the new TV engine, which is scheduled to be released this month. *Fingers crossed*...
