Menu w/ live TV showing question

When one is at a menu that has TV showing (top right corner), is it possible to enable something that allows you to just click on whatever is showing to jump to it? Currently if I'm in the program guide or whatever I have to go back searching through the guide for the show that's on to jump to it fullscreen, it would be tons easier just to be able to click on the video in the top right. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Just click Home then Left, will take you back to the current show.

CTRL+V is the keyboard command for LiveTV, that should take you to full screen playback of whatever was showing.

In fairness to the OP, I've never thought that Sage handled this all that well. Going to the main screen then Left (sometimes just Left works too)seems counterintuitive and AFAIK the LiveTV button won't work for recordings, only if you are watching live tv. I'd prefer navigating up/lect to the small video window and selecting it as the OP suggests.

BTW: Ctrl+V is the TV command & will take you to the media playback screen from most menus, showing you whatever media is currently playing. If nothing is playing, live TV will start.

The "TV" button on the Hauppauge remote works well for this, at least on the MVP... The Sage command is "TV", and it works for livetv or recordings, just takes you to fullscreen to whatever video is playing in the window.
