[QUOTE="elsmandino, post: 855230, member: 111675"] Thanks very much for that. I am not sure I can entirely see why Live TV would have a lower authority to store programs information than when the paused button is pressed - is it for the simple reason that when you are watching live TV, you may want to skip back say a maximum 10 minutes to re-watch something, but if the phone goes and you pause for five minutes, you get this five minutes plus the original 10 minutes, giving a total of 15 minutes of skip back? So, Just using my computer as a worked example, I have a standalone setup with 3.94GB of RAM free for timeshifting and three tuners. I have up to three client's that might be using the tuners in addition to the Standalone setup, so I would have to give a careful maximum to each tuner. Hopefully this is the correct calculations: 3.94GB = 4,034MB of total RAM to share. 4,034MB / 3 = 1,344MB per tuner. Am I correct in thinking that I should set time shift with a file size of 134MB, a minimum of say, 6 files and a maximum of 10 files? If this is correct, would there be any advantage of having smaller files but allow more of them e.g. 67MB files but a minimum of 12 and a maximum of 20? Sorry if this is getting a little complex. Thanks again, Alex [/QUOTE]
