I've recently started "tivoing" the audio streams from a number of radio 
stations (both Internet streams via mplayer and broadcast audio via a 
cheap receiver from craigslist and LIRC).  Mostly I'm time-shifting NPR 
news programs, but there's also some interesting BBC stuff on overnight.

In any case, listening to these recordings on the slimserver is a mixed 
experience -- a typical program is an hour long, and some may be as long 
as three hours.  Trying to return to the middle of a program using the 
existing fast forward feature is an exercise in patience.

Is there a better way?  I'd like to see +10min/-10min buttons -- in the 
web interface if not via the remote (although perhaps holding down the 
FF button longer could result in larger increments).  Heck, I'd like to 
see +/-N, where N is a user configureable value.

I'm curious if anyone else has pondered solutions to this situation.

Cheers,

-- Lars
