    Hello guys

    Some days ago i watched a tv show and skipped back some minutes.
    Using the timeshift now i wanted to see the info menu, which appeared not to happen correctly.
    Because meanwhile the show ended and the next one was already playing.
    My suggestion was to improve this so that the info menu would show info for the show thats actualy on the screen
    and not for the show that should be playing according to the tv guide.
    I actualy don't know how this could be achieved technicaly but I'm just a user anyway.
    And there must be a way since media center has this feature.

    Regards,

    Rico

    No reply?
    And? Is it worth being added to the roadmap?

    +1 :)

    EPG should show what's on the screen right now instead of "what would be if I wouldn't have paused".

    CU,
    Sepp.

    Theres also something strange going on if you watch Recorded TV and bring up the OSD. There should be the title of the recording and the Next: label should be empty.

    And there is one thing I forgot. The timeline should then show the progress of the show which is actually on screen.

    In the MP2 SlimTv client I have implemented this feature (or at least some kind of): All channel changes during timeshift are stored as virtual chapters so you can skip between them and have the matching channel and program info.

    This only needs to be extended to create a new chapter on program switches. An issue is still there: I don't know the exact timeshifted duration so the chapters will drift on ts buffer file changes...

    Well that's good news although I had to google what slim tv is first... ;)
    So there is the chance that this will be a feature in mp2 as I understand....?!
