Hi,

This would be great feature! For me the pause feature is almost useless because it does not stop when the program ends. If I want to "pause" a program I'll go and set up timer.

I think it would be the best if there were two choices (colour buttons): e.g. green would be normal pause that ends after 3h and blue would record only the current program. In both cases the live broadcast would freeze.

Hi,

I have a suggestion for pausing a live program. Now when I want to pause a show, I have to stop it separately, or leave it on till the live-pausing time-out occurs (eg. 3 hours).

What I think would be a nice enhancement would be to get an option to record the current program + 10min (as the normal timer-menu suggests), and the recording would stop automagically. This option would be visible right after I press pause, and it would be on the screen for eg. 5sec. The prompt could be something like: "Do you want to pause only the current program? Press ok to confirm or Back to keep going". Currently when I'm pausing a program I'm watching, i start the timer, and browse to my recordings-menu and start watching that way. The reason I do it this way is that I don't have to remember shutting down the program after watching it (otherwise It keeps going till time-out and wastes space on my hdd).

Also if I have a timer for a channel that's on a different channel group that starts eg. after the program I'm pausing the, start-up of the recording would fail..

Regards,

René
