 These two are pretty important IMO because my Freevo box may not be in
 exact sync with the cable company. And if these are configurable where are
 they configurable?


1) not to my understanding but if there is a poll for this i
would say YES !! I know one can manually record things but a 5 min
before and 5 after option would be great.

Re: [Freevo-users] pre-record amount? re-attempts?

2003-11-22 Thread Rob Shortt
All this stuff has been talked about before.  Now that 1.4 is out you 
will soon see the pre/post recording buffer feature.

For the recording notification the recordserver would have to notify the 
TV frontend that it wants to start recording.  I would like to have the 
TV side listen for xml-rpc requests like the recordserver stuff but that 
will require some work.  If the user is watching TV when a recording 
needs to start (and all available recording devices are in use) then 
they could be presented with a popup to make a choice or have a default 
choice in the config.

I've been thinking of a notify/reminder-plugin that could have been
used for this. 

I'd like the plugin to use something like tvtime's DISPLAY_MESSAGE or
xawtv's xawtv-remote to display the notification. It should be
possible to schedule a notification/reminder or just display it right
away.

Re: [Freevo-users] pre-record amount? re-attempts?

2003-11-22 Thread Justin T Wetherell
I would like a pre-record setting and a post-record setting. The second 
option sounds fun but it shouldn't be enabled by default. I wouldn't use 
it because I don't use Freevo for watching TV just as a PVR. If 
something poped up and I didnt press a button, I would never record it. 
That wouldn't be too good.

I'd also be nice to get a notification if a recording should start while I'm
watching a(nother) channel. Maybe configurable to force/ask/ignore the scheduled
