For example, currently if I want to watch two or three recordings one
after another, I go to recordings menu, play 1 till end, hit back
(returning me to recordings menu), play 2 till end and so on. Each
time I go back to the recordings menu to choose the next recording,
I'm forced to see and hear whatever happens to be showing at that time
on the last channel tuned, even when it has no interest to me...
I know similar situations where I don't want to have live TV, for
example if this would tune to problematic channels (streamdev client) or
would interrupt other receivers.
Another good solution to this would be a real 'dummy' device, a
receiving device that permanently receives a still picture, and that
would be assigned to a free channel number. This would also be nice for
a playback-only VDR without receiving devices, to avoid the frequent
'channel not available' messages.
I've once tried to write such a plugin, however these attempts were
missing some code to turn a single mpeg still frame into an endless
sequence with proper time codes.
Cheers,
