I disagree, my sister's got a Humax which can pause and rewind, it's
really useful. She's even willing to have inferior picture quality
(older MPEG decoder, analogue SCART etc vs modern TV's inbuilt decoder)
just to be able to pause and rewind.

VDR can already pause, but what if there's a sudden distraction and you
miss something before you can press the pause button? Then rewind is
very nice.

Do you mean because of slow channel switching? A buffer doesn't have to
cause that, see my other post.
