Ok, not getting any replies,  I found the issue myself. It seems I had to
replace the LIVE_PAUSEBUFFER with ..PAUSE2.. not ..PAUSE.. etc.

LIVE_PAUSE2_BUFFER_SIZE=128
LIVE_PAUSE2_BUFFER_PATH='/tmp/live.buf' # Location of the live buffer.
LIVE_PAUSE2_PREFERRED_PLAYER='xine'

This is "not" documented anywhere, I would have thought that the Wiki should
have this upto date info ??

I only managed to fix this by coming across a post with these settings about
another livepause issue, otherwise I would still be struggling.

How come convert_config  doesn't pick this up? I thought that was what it
was for..

Well now that I have TV working, how do I get OSD to work??

And how does record work, do I have to have the record server running, and
if so, how does it know about dvbstreamer, it seems all the record server
docs are for mplayer connected directly to the DVB card, not dvbstreamer ..

Thanks,
Bernie
