[QUOTE="omriamos, post: 1090593, member: 75282"] I honestly don't understand how this feature could just get ignored for so many years... It's a pretty basic feature for LiveTV management IMHO. 1. You watch LiveTV. 2. You see something important that you want to record, but obviously you missed the beginning of it. 3. You say to yourself "thank god for timeshift!" and go back 5 minutes. 4. You hit 'Record' when the thing you want to record starts "again". 5. Great success! (*) * not in reality :( In reality: 4. You hit 'Record' 5. You watch the recorded program, and find out that it includes a TV stream that is completely different then you one you were watching..... 6. Epic fail. -------- I don't "care" about the technical issues, I'm talking about this from the point of view of the common non-technical user. He doesn't understand what "timeshifting buffer" is, he just knows that he can "rewind" and then "record". [B]It is technically totally possible in the GUI to 'rewind' and then 'record'.[/B] [B]IF THE SOFTWARE DOES NOT ALLOW THIS - THEN IT SHOULDN'T, WELL, ALLOW THIS. TECHNICALLY.[/B] IMHO.[B][/B] [/QUOTE]
