Just did a bit of channel hopping last night and just now checked out
"Recorded Programs" on MythWeb and found that the backend recorded
every channel hop I made, something like 30 enteries in the "Recorded
programs" about 1 or 2 minutes each - depends on how long I watched
the channel hop - took me a while to delete them all. Why would the
backend record all this and how do I stop this?
Because of all the people who requested the recording of LiveTV (i.e.
"I was watching LiveTV for 45 minutes and decided the show was worth
keeping, so I hit 'r', but it didn't save the first 45 minutes of the
show. This sucks!!!").
Search the lists for this issue being discussed ad nauseum--and it
won't change (and you can't stop it, short of re-writing a significant
portion of Myth in your own personal repository).
This is in my mind a major step backwards in terms of usability. I
often browse Live TV to either check the time, or check the upcoming
schedule, etc. It would be an absolute ballache to have to delete all
the mini recordings.
How about an option to say 'Automatically delete live recording buffers
when changing channels' or something like that.
