Send the channel change command before it actually starts recording

[MaidenQuebec]

Hi,

I would like see an option to tell GB-PVR to change the channel, then wait a certain amount of time before it starts recording. On each of my recordings, I can see it records the actual channel I was on, then send the channel change command and then see it switch to the correct channel.

That would be cool if I can configure the PVR to send the channel change, and wait a certain amount of time before it actually starts to record (something like 5 seconds would be fine for me).

This could be an option in the settings of the Channel changer. I use the .exe channel changer.

Thanks!

You could increase the pre show padding by a minute im config if it's causing you to miss the start of the program

I would certainly want to see it as an option rather than a change.
I like to see the channel change appear on screen (for me it is only there for a second)
as an aid to find out what goes wrong when I end up with a recording of the wrong show!. (my blaster usually!).
