A "press pause again for stopping live-view" is a good idea.
It happens often after watching a recording. If I accidential stopped
the replay, and press pause then. Or the recording was at its end and i
press pause. Navigating the menus an hitting yellow on the wrong place.

Then always: "stop replay" "stop recoding" find the recorded garbage and
delete it.

And putting away the remote is not the best solution for me :)
 
Same issue here with my 2 year old kid. But I think he presses the big red glowing button on MCE remote :)
 
Confirmation will be a good idea, but not by pressing the pause button twice.
 
I think it could be a good idea to implement multiple-button commands and allow configuration for every command.
By default it could be set to once pressed pause button, others might set it to pause+ok.
This will solve some more problems I can think of, such as remotes with few buttons, so sequences will allow them to use much more VDR commands.
Maybe there is a need for a single point of remote control processing where that multi-button feature will be implemented, so all other plugins could use it somehow.
