Is one very useful use case of this is listen-again before the program has finished? A lot of shows (particularly radio 3 concerts) last a long time, so it is a nuisance if you missed the start and have to wait until it ends and shows up as a listen again url. Since the schedule is known, this could be implemented to look like normal listen again - just that a seek beyond the current time will fail. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ utgg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40900 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104672 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
