[QUOTE="2BitSculptor, post: 734593, member: 65661"] From my understanding.... what you are asking for MP cannot do. The timeshift buffer is saved on disk as many smaller files for each channel that various clients are viewing. Usually no more than 1/2 hour of buffer (can be adjusted, but I'm not sure how much) for shifting foreward and back. The timeshift buffer can hold more program, but shifting back at a certain point is limited. I believe there where plans for MP to record a currently playing program from the beginning of that program's timeshift buffer. I don't know if it is implemented yet. I don't believe it is feasible to continuously timeshift 2 weeks worth of TS files on multiple channels (or even one channel for that period of time). The amount of storage space would be prohibitive. You would also have to create a client for each channel, as one client can only play one channel at a time. The database would also have to be remade to store 2 weeks worth of channel information, again, for each channel. I'm probably blowing smoke from my butt ... but I think it would require way too much in programming and resources that are way beyond the scope and purpose of MP. best regards, Chuck [/QUOTE]
