[QUOTE="Freeman1979, post: 99053, member: 26756"] I'm thinking of a extra mode with dynamic time for timeshift (not 30/60/90/.. min, but "until disk is full"). I think in many cases you don't need >15min of timeshift. Often you just want to pause for a phone call or toilet or to rewind the last 30 secs. In this case you dont need a big ram-disk, maybe a 512MB Ram-disk will be enough. I'm using a Hauppauge PVR @ ~4MBit/s VBR and there I could pause around 17 min. I think it could speed up MyTV, just if I compare channel switching with and without enabled timeshift. I would also be good to the hdd life and could prevent the jerking if the hdd cache is flushed. It must not be a ramdisk, but short timeshifts would be nice if they are done in a memory buffer. Maybe somebody could implement a memory ts mode with undefined length (30 min / 60min / .. / Auto (Memory) ) for people like me who doesn't need a timeshift buffer of 2h ;-) regards Freeman [/QUOTE]
