Recording running programs (2 Viewers)

[ehobel]

Is it possible to record a still running program from the beginning with information from the time-shift buffer?

 

[Ralph]

Yes, just hit record now and a pop up appears.
Choose "record this show" and the part that's in timeshift will be included to the recording.
This only works, if you have EPG-data, otherwise MediaPortal doesn't know where the show starts and ends.

I have suggestion for this. Sometimes show starts earlier than it should according to EPG (especially web EPG). It will be good feature to show option after hit record like:
1. Record this show
2. Record until manual stop
3. Record from beginning of the TS buffer until manual stop
And maybe:
4. Record this show from beginning of the TS buffer

I think that this is to heavy form implementation, but in same cases very useful.

in many cases useful (I wished for it in the past)

This addition also has my vote.
