Just my 5 cent on the topic; Having a pause key that records is really non-logical. Follow the principle of least surprise; if you want to record live tv, you press the record button, no the pause button. If one really wants to record the (temporal) file created by a live tv pause, one could

I haved lost count the number of times I have pressed the numbered keys on my remote by accident and then panic because I don't know how to undo what then happened. This is definitely a trap for unsuspecting beginners. Some kind of editing mode would be safer. Otherwise the key layout is ok.

our satellite provider's pvr, has 2 tv out and 2 remotes. If you are watching a live/paused recording, you have the option to save it or discard it. I do not know what the size of this buffer is. But it does give you the option and it does show you are busy with a live buffer, icon indication is

If you don't want VDR to record when pause is pressed, how do you expect to resume play from the point at which you pressed pause? Obviously it has to record the stream somewhere since there is no live tv caching in VDR. Next, you _do_ have the option to delete these pause/instant recordings, you

Hi I have also no problem with editing keys and I find this option fine, keys are easy to learn and it is intuitive. The only time I can do error when replaying recording is pressing the 2 keys who run the cutting process (that you can concel in the menu very easyly) Maybe the solution to your

Handling of the pause key is an intreresting issue. There was proposal to configure the pause key as down key. This works during replay, but hitting the pause during live video changes channel. Better solution would be to add setup option for pause key handling. I made a simple patch for this:
