Re: Can I disable pause live tv altogher?

[Andrew Herron <totallymaxed@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is a very popular feature in the Sky+ & SkyHD PVR's from Sky here in the UK as it  enables them to offer the ability to rewind 'Live TV' in an ad-hoc way (at least to the point where you switched over to the currently viewed channel)

I agree it must put extra wear & stress on the hard drive and yes the energy usage must be higher.

I really hope Klaus never intends to implement something like the live
tv buffer that myth has.  The idea of one of my harddrives saving
nonstop 24/7 is really really lame.  Huge waste of power, constant
heat, and unnecessary wear on the harddrive for something that
probably doesn't even get used that much in the first place.
