    This is a little bit strange...
    I have just installed 1.2.0 Beta as a full clean install and cannot get the TV bit working correctly with the timeshift buffer.
    It simply refuses to use the buffer for any more than 1-2 seconds of program.
    I have tried:
    * moving the timeshift folder from the SSD to the internal SATA hdd
    * uninstalling and reinstalling the TV Server (and client)
    * uninstalling and reinstalling SAF 4, 5 and the latest 6
    * Changing the settings in the TV Server config to use 10240mb of buffer

    Nothing works :(
    Currently I'm in process of some other ideas - hence the lack of Logs - but has anyone else seen this??

    Ok - got a bit further - it seems to be an issue using the Backdrop skin - I'll report it there.

    Thanks for your patience!
