I've wondered this too. Is there any way to physically delete it though so it doesn't appear in the list at all? I have recorded a music video on MTV a few times which has come on at a random time (not listed in EPG) and does not need to be repeated. In this instance all I want Myth to do is record when I hit a button, and stop recording when I hit another button. >From what I can gather once Myth starts recording (by pressing 'r') it will continue recording until the end of the "programme" which, in some music channels case, can often be several hours long (i.e. some music channels have one programme that runs 24 hours, which has lots of random songs playing). I have tried hitting 'r' again but this doesn't stop recording, I have to manually press escape, go into "Upcoming Recordings" and tell it to stop. This is less than desireable. Is there any way that Myth can just "instant record" when I tell it to, and stop when I tell it to, disregarding anything in the EPG? To give an example, on Sky+ here in the UK you have a record button on the remote control which, when pressed, records the current channel. This stops when either the programme ends, or when the user manually hits record/stop again. It isn't then added to any scheduled recordings list (why would I want to record a random piece of television again, and why would it even necessarily be on again ever at the same time, or on the same channel - in the example of a music video). Any ideas? Darren
