Watch & Record

[emcdonald]

I can't seem to watch a TV show while recording it at the same time.
Plus I can't Rewind or Fast Forward on the fly while watching Live TV.
But I can pause.
If I watch a recorded mpeg then RWD and FF work fine.

Is this normal or am I missing a step some where?  

FYI, AMD XP 2200+, 512MB Ram & PVR350 for Svideo TV-out.

thanks

Hey emcdonald,

you are not missing anything but if you search the forum (top right) you'll find these are commonly asked questions.

The workaround for watching a show whilst recording it is to go into the recordings section and watch it there, though there are caveats to this with FFW and REW.

As for FFW/REW on live TV, this depends on where you are watching (PVR350/MVP/XCARD/PC), currently this is only supported on the PC using SBE (though Sub will correct me if i am wrong.

Most of these things are on Sub's TODO list,

cheers,
Colin.
