[...] Hi all!
Any progress with this feature? Is there any checklist available for this? I would have some whishes that i think are pretty practical. Maybe someone has more ideas that i have forgot..
- Option to choose between RAM / HDD
I don't think that's actually necessary. Make the file-based lifebuffer feature rock-solid; if users want to have the buffer in RAM, make them mount a tmpfs for that purpose. Should lead to simpler code and, in turn, less bugs :)
- Option to pick the amount of memory / HDD to use
- Option to warn if you switch channel and you are watching the
buffer (eg. "You are watching from the buffer. Changing channel will delete the current buffer")
- Being able to rewind just by hitting the back/rewind button
without pressing Ok or something else first.
- When watching the livebuffer, and you notice that you want to
save the curent progarm, you should be able to save the tv-program from either the beginning of the buffer, or then if the buffer is longer, from the beginning of where the program started. This way you will be able to save the whole progra (movie etc.)
- Option to keep X amounts of HDD-buffers after changing channels.
Then in the recording meny would be an entry where you could watch these buffers, and possibly save them as a recording afterwards.
All these would be very nice to have indeed.
