[QUOTE="matjam, post: 761559, member: 97838"] Hi there, I've just encountered some behaviour which I think shouldn't happen. Here's the scenario: Two programmes: 21:00hrs, BBC1, The Apprentice 22:00hrs, BBC2, You're Fired We like to watch both programmes. I started watching the BBC1 show and paused it for about 20 minutes. Realising that I'd now miss the start of the 22:00 show on BBC2 I set that up to record, knowing that all of the 21:00 show will be in the timeshift buffer. However, when it came to 22:00, Mediaportal started recording the the BBC2 show, I still had 20 mins of BBC1 show in the buffer. Up popped the dialogue box warning me that my buffer would be lost. I thought that MP would just stop writing NEW content to the buffer and allow me to continue watching what was already in there (the rest of my BBC1 show). I was wrong. All the buffer was erased and I lost the remaining 20 mins of buffered programme due to a new recording. Do people think this is appropriate behaviour? Thanks, Matt.
