It would be helpful if there could be an icon or text displayed on the main menu when the recording service is not running.
Today, I tried to access EWA and could not connect. I found that the recording service was not running. Upon restarting, EWA started working again. I could have also discovered this by going into live tv mode.
While the recording service should always be running, on occasion I have had it die. I know that this is usually a sign that something is wrong, but it would be nice to be alerted visually when the RS is not running. While I do use GBPvr daily, several days may go by before I use watch live tv. I do have programs scheduled to record almost every day.
Thanks ...
