Recording while timeshifting - bug or feature?

Postby stevedee3 » 07 Jun 2009 16:46

Hi,

(VLC = 1.0.0rc2)

If I am watching delayed (via timeshift) DVB-T and hit the record button, which should happen?
  1. The recording starts at the currently viewed time?, or
  2. The recording starts at the current broadcast time?
I would expect/prefer [1], but the current behaviour is [2].

Thanks.

Well, this is a limitation, but would be difficult to do otherwise now.

Well --no-input-record-native should fix that.
