[QUOTE="infinite.loop, post: 786012, member: 10723"] TV-Server will only kick a user / stop LiveTv if it has been configured to do so -> [URL="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/07_Recording"]allow tv-server to stop livetv when no free tv card is available[/URL] So atm. you only have 2 choices to avoid the reported problem: 1. install more TV-Cards 2. disable that option, but end up with an incomplete recording ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Continuing to playback the buffer to the point where the tv-server started to tune a different channel seems like a good idea. I would propose this behaviour: [LIST=1] [*]user tunes ChanA [*]user pauses LiveTv for 30 minutes [*]user continues to watch LiveTV and has 30minutes of buffer ahead [*]tv-server has to record on ChanB. ChanB is not on the same transponder as ChanA, there is no free tv-card, tv-server is configured to stop livetv and do the recording [*]user is notified that tv-server just tuned to a different channel, and that he can only watch the buffer to the end - user has to "okay" that dialog to ensure he did not miss it [*]at the end of the buffer user is asked if he wants to watch the recorded (or in progress recording) [/LIST] [B][U]An alternative to that would be that:[/U][/B] when the channels are changed, the tv-server simply continues to store data into the ts-buffer and the recorded *.ts. So the LiveTV Stream is never interrupted. At the point the tv-server switched channels, you will simply see the channels changeing inside the LiveTV stream you are watching. Simmilar to zapping through channels, then go back to the beginning of the timeshift buffer. I would definitely prefer that because it does not require any userinteraction. [/QUOTE]
