Or at work ;)

telling
me the show I set a reminder for is about to start... want to watch
it?)
I'm not sure, that seems redundant with schedules - just record and
maybe hint the user that a recording started.
True in a way but, one of the best used features of the Sky+ Box in
the UK is this. (Best PVR box I've ever seen, UI and feature wise).
You might want to watch some stupid show while you wait for the game
to start... but you dont really want to record the game, or have it
record and eat up HD space. It just allows you to not worry to
remember to switch over.
Initial Questions...
1. Will this be a standalone plugin, or would you also like to add
the
three hierarchal items you list below in our current TV show section
on the Main Menu?
I'd vote for separate menu entry as you can have both tv shows, movies
and music videos there. On the other hand, recordings of known type
could get merged with others in the database.
Should e smart enough without user input. If we cant get the type... I
have other ideas. But lets not get too detailed yet.
2. Where do recording exist for later review and playback? (see Q3
which might relate to it)
Wherever they were recorded. A front/back-end separation is a must,
IMO.
Ah you are thinking of the actual video file... I am thinking about
someweere the user can see it, access it and play it inside the UI.
3. Should any recordings that have completed need the ability to add
them directly to TV Section Library currently in Moovida?
(automatically or does the user see a recording and say 'yeah, move
that to the Main TV Shows library... delete that... ok, move that...
delete that etc)
You could try to do that automatically based on EPG data and, of
course,
allow the user to manipulate the recordings by hand.
