[QUOTE="2BitSculptor, post: 272396, member: 65661"] I too have had some consternation regarding Timeshifting. The way it looks to me.... Timeshifting is automatic with TV server. I have found no clear instruction as to its operation. It only makes sense that skip forward and skip back on the navigation keys do just that. Pause, fast forward and rewind do just that, but I don't know how to cleanly get back to live TV without changing channels (sometimes that is difficult, as the timeshift buffer apparently wants to show the previous channel's timeshift) and as you said, turn off TV then restart. I have skipped foreward to the end of the buffer, but it still seems behind live TV, and hitting skip foreward again just hick-ups to the last 15 secs of the buffer already ended. The live TV button takes me to the GUI rather than going to live tv from anywhere in the timeshift stream. God forbid you accidently hit an up or down in the navigation ring instead of change channel. It can become confusing quickly. It would make sense to me that hitting stop during a time shift stream should send you to live tv. but it doesn't. A small visual clue OSD (flashing icon?) might be helpful to tell you when you are watching a timeshift stream. I think this discussion is better placed in the TV server section... but I don't know if it is really a bug. best of luck Chuck [/QUOTE]
