Hi Martin

You (correctly) mentioned over on the the Kodi forum I should post Q's about knewc here, so here I go:

Running on Kodi 18.4; the default knewc advanced settings screen has "Native" as Streaming Mode.
Both knewc and NextPVR 3.3.15.4 Kodi Addons have a Timeshift mode, with NextPVR 3.3.15.4 an "Extended Timeshift" mode.

I understand NextPVR 3.3.15.4 runs in the background.
With both having Timeshift settings should I enable both or just one of the two and if so, which one please? 
I originally changed the knewc settings from Native to Timeshift and upped the knewc Buffers from 4000 to 5000 but was wondering if I should just leave this as Native and set Timeshift ONLY in NextPVR 3.3.15.4 ?

Thanks and sorry but I am genuinely confused about this.

k.

The settings are independent. Do you need timeshift for live tv?

Not for LiveTV no, I rarely watch LiveTV and if so, then not in a Timeshift mode.

What I do do, for sports, is to record a game (to watch later) and then watch it "Live" i.e. catch up; and if I get hungry, pause it go to the fridge and play on, catching up to "Live" or as close as it allows without jumping out at a break in play. Hope that explains what I am trying to do.

Thanks again

P.S. If they are independent then which one is for which function please?

Ok so as I have been trying to explain, you don't need to worry about Timeshift settings at all, leave knewc at native and Kodi pvr addon at real time for straight play of live tv.

You could start a recording in UI client or watch a scheduled recording in-progress recording and in theory you should be able to watch an in-progress recording in Kodi via the pvr addon without a stop.
